For some reason I’m reminded of the tarantula that jumped out and bit a customer at the grocery every time I see bananas.
I never got the flashing your headlights at someone without headlights on and being hunted down story straight. Doesn’t make me think about it less.

I always check my back seat before I get in my car.
That alligators live in the sewers of New York (a seventies myth that people would flush their pet alligators down the lavatory and they would flourish and grow large), I wish I could remember the title of the novel I got this idea from.
The Legend of Bloody Mary that says anyone who chants the words Bloody Mary three times in front of a mirror will summon a vengeful spirit.
My half sister loves sasquatch lol. I think our local albino community is amusingly odd.

They do not have to do that. They do that for fun.
Errol Flynn used to tie his cock to his thigh during filming fo fear of unleashing the beast on an audience that was enjoying his swashbuckling antics.
@bea2345 the alligators is a really good one…popular!
@Smitha I’ve never heard the Bloody Mary one.
@ucme I’ve not heard the Errol Flynn one, either. How thrillingly silly. That would be one hell of a costuming accident! lol
@ibstubro – I just found the novel.. It is V, by Thomas Pynchon. Chapter Five describes a character who hunts alligators in the sewers of Manhattan.
