Following on from @anon96032531’ contribution here.
I have a baby monitor, really cool bit of kit but one annoyance is if you turn it on manually (as opposed to it turning because a child screams) then it will replay the second or so of whatever was happening when it last turned off.
Usually this means you get a short child’s scream replayed back to you. You get used to it and it doesn’t startle you after a while.
Well, not entirely because my child woke up, the monitor went off, I put it down and for whatever reason I decided to stand infront of the camera with my back to it while I settle him.
So I go to bed, I wake up at 4am the next day, go to the toilet, come out and check the baby monitor like I do every morning to see some fucking dude standing over my kid’s bed. I all of a sudden feel a rush of just fucking everything, my heart nearly explodss out my chest, then the guy disappears into thin air. I swear my anus expanded and contracted from airtight to the size of a trash canlid 1000 times in that split second.
My irrational, 4AM, mind thinks A FUCKING GHOST… then I realise what happened. It’s replaying me from last night.
Fucking assholes. I didn’t let out a girly scream though ![]()
