Did the simulation "patch a bug" after I talked about it out loud?

Not sure if this is the right sub, but I wanted to share a weird experience that gave me major simulation (or coma) vibes. Just sharing this for fun!

For a long time, right as I was drifting off to sleep, I'd hear random, loud noises in my room crashing plates, a door slamming, or what sounded like metal medical tools dropping. I live alone, but I never overthought it since the sounds only lasted a second or two.

One night, it was different. Right before falling into deep sleep, I heard a loud, clear cough. It sounded like a heavy smoker coughing right next to me. I was wide awake at this point, and it went on for a minute or two.

I looked it up and found out it’s an actual documented medical condition (like Exploding Head Syndrome / hypnagogic hallucinations). Later that day, I told a coworker about it and we just laughed it off.

Here’s the glitchy part: ever since I talked about it out loud to someone, the almost daily noises completely stopped. They just never happened again. Have they moved the real me to somewhere more isolated and quiet? Who are they ? lol

Honestly, I believe anything is possible until proven otherwise. Sometimes I wonder if sleep is just a loading screen or a transition phase in a sim, or if I'm in a coma and my brain is projecting this reality (hence the "medical tools" sounds). Ultimately, I'm a rational person and I firmly believe we're just the result of billions of years of evolution and pure statistical probability but instances like this make for a fun glitch in the matrix thought experiment.

Anyone else experience something similar?

Is asking for written confirmation of offer presentation "unreasonable"?

A week ago, I submitted two offers on a property. I suspected the listing agent didn't present the first offer and only showed the second one. Ultimately, I was told both were rejected.

I asked my buyer's agent to request a written confirmation from the listing agent proving that my offers were actually presented to the seller. My agent completely lost it. He called me furious, saying, "I don't work for you to tell me what to do," and claimed my request was completely unreasonable and outside of standard practice. I then canceled our upcoming viewings, and we haven't spoken since.

The agent is my friend brother and not sure how to move forward with this, I feel like I don't want to work with hem any longer because of how he was yelling and being disrespectful and unprofessional.

Is asking for written proof that an offer was presented actually unreasonable or as he said out of the ordinary?

Am I missing something, or is my agent’s reaction a major red flag?

I have signed exclusive representation agreement with them.
