r/Glitch_in_the_Matrix

I’ve been experiencing déjà vu since I was a child, weird premonition type experiences that I have mostly ignored in order to hold onto my sanity. I’ve experimented with Astral Projection and lucid dreaming successfully throughout my young adult life, never thought too much of it because I believe in all of these types of things. Most of the time I don’t share my experiences though and I read about glitches such as duplicating items and missing items being found in the oddest of places but have never experienced it until last night.

I was doing my laundry and came across a pair of blue underwear that came in a cheap multi pack of cotton fruit of the loom underwear from Walmart several years ago. I know for a fact that I only ever went and bought one pack, because when I tried to buy another I could never find them again, but I liked these because they are very light and very comfortable. Anyway, as I continued to do my laundry I came across the exact same pair a second time. I know for a fact that there was only one color per pair in the pack that I bought. I do not date, I live alone, there’s no reason for me to have two miraculously. Have I shifted? What happened?

This happened today, I wanted to watch some tv at the hotel I was staying at and went to look for the remote. My partner and I remember leaving it on the couch the night before. I looked under/around/inside everywhere for this remote (I actually flipped the couch upside down) and could not find it. Later that night I went to sleep and had a nightmare about someone breaking into the room. I woke up to lock the door at around 3AM and guess what was on the couch. The remote I spent about 2 hours looking for on the couch arm like it was there the whole time. I am very spooked by this whole situation and another weird part is that after searching for the remote for 2 hours I went down to the desk to ask if they had any extras (a weird question to ask but hey I had the day off wanted to play some Xbox) they said they ordered more because “people keep stealing them.” What do y’all think? Am I going crazy or did I check into the disappearing tv remote hotel?

TL;DR at the bottom, but there’s a lot of pertinent details in the actual post.

I’ve experienced some really weird things in life but I’ve never experienced something like this. I know people can sometimes start kind of day dreaming and lose track of time, suddenly catch themselves doing it and realize time went by while they were on autopilot. That wasn’t what happened here. I was very very focused on where I was and what was going on around me.

I’ve lived up here for almost 11 years, I’ve traveled this same highway, gone this same exit route more times than I can count. So it wasn’t a GPS glitch or me being somewhere where I don’t know the roadways or accidentally getting lost. Bright blue skies too, so no bad weather obscuring signs.

It was still daylight and I was driving to my friends house. From where I was to where my friend lives, the exit numbers go down. I had to get off at exit 5 which is on the right side. Exit 5 then separates into 5a and 5b, I had to get off on 5a.

Now when you have to get off onto exit 5, there’s two lanes of traffic that merge onto the highway from the right. These two lanes of merging traffic are what you have to cross over into get to exit 5a, you have to get all the way to the right hand side.

I say all this to point out that there is a lot going on in this area, there’s a lot of vehicles, you really have to pay attention to what is going on around you when you need to get off onto this exit. What was a 3 lane highway turns into a 5 lane highway at the merging area that turns into exit 5. You have to cross over two lanes to the right while those same two lanes are trying to merge left onto the highway that you were just on. You absolutely have to be mindful of everything going on around you, especially in this area.

So I just passed exit 6, I’m in the right side lane waiting to see the two lanes of traffic to appear on my right so that I could get over. I’m driving. And I’m driving. And I’m waiting. It’s still bright daylight outside, there’s a decent amount of traffic. But absolutely none of it is any kind of road construction or maintenance or utility work or police vehicle in sight (here, the law is that if there’s any kind of utility or construction work done on any road, there’s at least one cop on sight with their lights on the whole time). There was nothing to indicate that there was anything going on with exit 5 that was out of the norm.

All of a sudden I see the sign for exit 4. I’m utterly baffled. Where the fuck did exit 5 go?? I swear on my life that it was like the stretch of traffic from exit 6 to exit 4 suddenly became much longer than it usually is, like exit 5 just didn’t exist while I was driving at that time. Exit 5 comes up very quickly after exit 6, I was so confused while driving through this stretch because it seemed like it was taking so much longer to see the merging two lanes of traffic and the sign for exit 5. Neither of them appeared and then all of sudden I see the sign for exit 4.

I ended up having to get off on exit 4, turning around and going back the other way. Exit 5 came up, it wasn’t just obliterated off the face of the earth thankfully. But this all happened two days ago and I can’t stop thinking about it. There’s absolutely no reason for exit 5 and it’s two lanes of merging traffic on a major highway to just disappear in broad daylight like it never even existed.

TL;DR An exit(on a main highway in my state) the sign for the exit, and it’s two lanes of merging traffic seemed to just up and disappear in broad daylight without there being any kind of construction or closure. Was very awake, aware and paying attention. The town was not obliterated off the face of the earth when I had to turn around and get there from the opposite direction.

The dnd rulebook that i know for certain was in the dnd box inside my dresser or whatever the correct word for a little wooden bureau is. Suddenly appeared ontop of the dresser. This morning i know it wasnt there and ive been in my room a few times today but i just now noticed when looking over it was suddenly there. The box is still underneath another box inside the dressee and hasnt moved. The dresser doors were also still closed. Im so intensly confused how this is possible

(Im not allowed to attach pictures but if possible ill put them in the comments)

I am losing my mind actually.
Today while sifting through my underwear drawer I found a pack of 3 underwear brand new small/medium from a store I don’t shopping at that I NEVER bought.

I live with my blind mother who didn’t put it there and it wasn’t there before it’s literally the first time I’m seeing this underwear. I then looked through my online shopping nothing there.
I’ve literally been trying to wrap my mind around how it’s even possible. The size is even wrong I’m a medium-large.

Could this be a glitch? I’m freaking out.

To keep it simple - my Wife, Son, and Myself were writing out an ingredients list for a recipe for some mangoes we just purchased

In the recipe my wife wrote “1/2 Cups of Water x2”

Which I recognized and commented - seems like “1 cup of water” in that case but she’s doing two batches so she needs a 1/2 cup each batch

We saw later somebody had added a “0” to the “x2” at the end making it “1/2 Cups of water x20”

We all chuckled, didn’t think anything of it, later my son wanted to joke and added another “0” so it became “x200”

Again small chuckle, but my son was asking us who wrote the first “0” to make it “x20”

My son is 7 and is clever but not clever enough to jokingly lie about not doing something and be able to convince us, and neither my wife or myself had written that first “0”

We cannot figure out who added the 0 originally to make it “x20” it’s just us in this apartment

None of us were even close to the small dry erase board this was written on until my son wrote HIS “0”

My son swore on OUR lives and the existence of his comfort blanket he didn’t write it lol

Whoever wrote it understood the comedic effect a small “0” can have on a short recipe list - a small joke that none of us made.

This morning, my husband got me some coffee. It was a D&D medium. They didn't put anything in (by mistake) and it was lukewarm, so my husband poured it into another cup to warm it up and add a sugar. During the transfer, he spilt what was easily half of the coffee.

It took 8 paper towels to clean it up as it had covered the counter, dribbled down the cabinet and into the floor.

He asked if I still wanted it bc there was only a small amount left, but I was craving it so I said even a few sips is better than none.

He put what was left in the microwave and then added a sugar.

He poured it back into the paper cup a d the cup was full again. It made no sense. So much had spilled. It took a lot to clean it up. Yet here I was, with a full cup.

We both got the goose bumps. It was weird. Would that be considered a glitch?

I know the title is confusing so let me explain.

A few weeks ago I was in my garden with my family and my gf. We we are all eating, and my father was also drinking a coffee.

After a while, both my father and my brother left to work on something, and only me, my mother and my girlfriend remained at the table. It was pretty windy outside so at one point the coffee cup fell off the table. We all saw that it fell to the ground, but we were too lazy to actually pick it in that exact moment.

We stayed for 20 - 30 more minutes and then we decided to go inside because we had to speak something with my grandma. Now thats where the weird thing happened. Before we left, we had to take the plates and the remaining food of the table so the wind won't blow them away as well, but we somehow all forgot about the coffee cup, that was already on the ground.

After speaking with my grandma we went back to the table, and in that exact same moment my father and brother were also coming back to the table. After that, my brother said that the wind pushed the cup of coffee and stained a wallet that was on the table.

And when we looked, the cup was ON the table, with the coffee being spilled all over the table. We asked if they picked up the coffee but they said no. We also saw them arrive at the exact time as us.

And we also cleaned up the table before we left, so we would have seen if a quarter of the table was spilled with coffee.

And what was even weirder, it was TOO much coffee spilled out on the table. Even if the coffee cup somehow landed upright ( it did not because both me, my mother and my gf saw it on the ground ), it still wouldn't make sense how so much coffee ended up back up there.

Hey everyone. I'm posting here because this community is good at analyzing weird media, and I am genuinely desperate for answers.

A few days ago, I found a blue Kodak Pixpro camera dumped in a patch of heavily trampled bushes in the woods near my house. It looked like something violent had happend, originally i thought an animal had gotten injured. Upon finding the device it turned on for a couple minutes before the battery completely fried.

Before it shut of, I saw a folder of deleted and corrupted files. So I pulled the SD card, and ran a data recovery program on my friends laptop. All it contained was a hidden folder if pictures of the same girl. The time stamp on them read '28th of March, 2007', but the camera I found was released in 2016.

I tried posting the camera to r/Unexplained and the photos to 4chan’s /x/ board to see if anyone recognized her. The threads are actually still alive right now, but are being ignored and flooded with ai claims.

This morning, I woke up at 2:21 due to the laptop making the classic Windows hardware-connect sound, like a USB drive being plugged in. The tabs open were all the pictures of the girl, but I could've sworn I shut it all down before going to sleep.

I started looking at the background details behind her, something felt oddly familiar. The room layout. The specific moulding on the wall. The exact placement of what looks to be a wardrobe behind her.

It's my bedroom.

Down to the exact centimetre, it is the room I am sitting in right now. But the file metadata says the folder was created in March 2007. My family built this house from the ground up in 2014.

She was standing in my room seven years before it existed.

I don't know who the fuck this girl is. I don't know how she was standing in my room almost a decade before it was even built, and I don't know how the camera ended up in the forest in the first place.

None of this makes sense, it's now nearly 9pm and I've been thinking about it all day. Please help if you know anything about metadata or whatever, I have no idea who to even call or tell.

I'll post the photos in the comments.

Three summers ago I was in Oahu at a more distant beach miles from Honolulu. There was one of those big military transport planes flying overhead, no doubt because Pearl Harbor is nearby. I thought it looked so fascinating and HUGE and antique-looking. So I grabbed my phone to film it. But it wasn’t showing up on my screen. I’m looking back and forth between my screen and the sky, zooming in and out, calling my friend over to look and say the plane isn’t visible. The clouds lined up, even birds flying, but no plane. I’m like, “you do see a plane in the sky, right??” She confirms yes but it was so weird that my phone just deadass did not see it. Glitch?

When i was young ( i probably was in class 4 or 5) , our wooden cabinet used to be covered with cloth carpet at the top. Its a usual thing in asian household to protect it from dust, damage and increase longevity of wooden things. One time i was playing with water and would slowly drop, one single drop of water from my finger onto the carpet to see how long it would take to … dissolve it in the carpet… its a weird game thingy i used to do as a kid. One day later, i see one drop - that same drop at the exact same spot, looking exactly like a drop of water but now like a glass hard thing??? I dont know what that was , but it was just water- but hard? Shaped exactly like a drop of water on a cloth carpet frozen in time, right before it was supposed to get dissolved…. I never told thing to anyone. I dont even know what that experience was.

It's been noted by individuals on social media that interesting things have taken place since the CERN shutdown, June 29. While these things/events could be mere coincidences (do we believe in that here?), every pattern is worth considering.

Things witnessed that seem notable:

• A change in perception, to that of 2019 and before. Others reported time "slowing down again".
• A change in the ecosystem. A difference in bird activity. Roly polys abound.
• I've also had a box of face masks jump off a shelf (wtf).

For a little backstory I’m currently renovating my kitchen and I left some tools lying on the counter,and yesterday I had a friend come over who did some handyman stuff,and I saw my tools were moved in a perfect line on my countertop,my friend had no reason to touch my tools because he had his own tool,I live with my mom and I thought she moved them so they wouldn’t get in my friends way,I didn’t think anything of it,but tonight I did a little work on my kitchen and I just left my tools lying around on the counter again,when I walked back into the kitchen my tools were moved in a straight line like
Someone lined them up and i sure don’t remember leaving them like that,I’m literally a unorganized person who definitely wouldn’t take the time to line up tools just for them to be used again the next day,I asked my mom if she moved them and she said no she has no reason to touch my tools

It’s the second time somebody sees me somewhere I am not. It is 9:28 am , Wednesday and I am at my own apartment- still in bed.
My dad called me 3 mins ago and asked if he woke me up - i said yes - he said he had to call and check because he just saw me through the camera in front of our house ringing the doorbell ( he has an app on his phone, whenever someone rings he sees who)

He was worried, he said he didn’t have glasses on so he didn’t see that clearly but he could still see me - my hair, my body movements, my clothes. He said I didn’t say anything - not even a word and that is when he got really worried. He needed to call and check if I am okay. Like he knew it was me but it wasn’t the real me if you know what I mean?

Last time i experienced this was when my brother was in the hospital and saw me there- i blamed on medications. It happened quite recently. But this time?? What is happening

Is it a doppelgänger? Is it some spirit trying to warn my dad of something? Am I in danger? Is my dad just blind and confused XD?

This happened a few years ago but I'm only know thinking about how weird this really is. My mother had this diary, or that's what she called it, it was a small notebook, anout the size of a standard wallet. This notebook had almost all of her passwords written down for all kinds of accounts, banks, netflix, cellular service provider, basically everything we had at the time in 2019, right before covid. One day my mother said she couldnt find it ANYWHERE, so she asked me to look for it instead, and I did for days, even weeks as this was the ONLY thing that had her passwords on it, no google passwords manager. I looked everywhere, under our beds, im bwtween couch cushions, even dark corners with a flashlight, but it qas nowhere. Problem is that my house was VERY small at the time considering it contained 5 rooms, a small entrance with our jackets and shoes hung up, a connecting hallway, on the left would be my mothers room, on the right would be the bathroom, a few feet ahead is the laundry room, then theres this one big kitchen that connected with the living room so I'm going to count those as one room as it was just one big room, on the top right of that living room / kitchen is my room.

So there wasn't much to check anyways, and she also never took it outdoors as she never needed to. Ever since then I've moved houses so maybe the previous owners have found it but we reset all her passwords so I aint too worried about it. I'm muslim and we have this concept of Jinns, another lifeform that exists on earth created by god, just that we cant see them but they can see and interract with humans, so maybe one just stole the notebook for the funnys, who knows dont really care about this whole thing, just thought it was a bit weirdo so might as well share it.

So, a few months ago I did have some few minor cases of my lost items reappearing in my room randomly but I didn't think much of them. However, yesterday the weirdest thing happened. I lost 2 of my bracelets approximately a year ago, and I had been looking quite a lot for them as they were a fond memory of mine but at the end decided to drop it as I thought I had simply forgotten them somewhere. I was in bed and I decided to remove my blanket from my bed and as I drag it, bam, my 2 bracelets fall on the floor along with 3 matches (fucking WEIRD). Lets go over the fact that for starters, the blanket is new so I lost the bracelets before I got the blanket, I change my bedsheets at least once a week, I move my mattress regularly so I would have seen them at some point. Either way, none of it makes sense considering I simply dragged my blanket out of my bed, which is something I do every. single. DAY!!!

I don't think I'm gonna be able to find an explanation for this one, just wondered if anyone else had something like this happened to them.

Very silly, very stupid, potentially not the right place for this... but a packet of mustard just randomly appeared in my kitchen.

I went to get some water just now, but when I brought my cup to the dispenser on the fridge... there was a packet of Sauer mustard, just sitting there on the little shelf where you put your cup. Completely inexplicable.

My obvious first thought was that it, somehow, was stuck to the glass I had sitting on the counter, and without noticing, a couple hours ago I'd gotten a drink of water and unknowingly deposited it there. I wouldn't call this a likely thing to have happened, since the packaging is bright white and yellow, standing out clearly... but it doesn't matter how unlikely it is if it's literally the only explanation.

The weird part is, where did it come from? I do have a couple mustard packets in a bag, leftover from sandwiches my wife and I got the other day, but checking those, they're all Heinz... and weren't close to the fridge or counter in question. The mustard on the fridge is Sauer brand, which as far as I remember I've never heard of.

I know that my wife didn't put it there, as she's out of town, and my cat and dog couldn't have even if they wanted to... so I'm completely at a loss here. Nobody's gone in that kitchen since I did earlier tonight, and the mustard definitely wasn't there then.

Any suggestions for making me feel less like a crazy person?

I've been thinking about something from a simulation theory perspective.

If reality is a simulation, we'd expect occasional inconsistencies—not dramatic "Matrix" moments, but subtle synchronization or rendering errors that our brains immediately try to rationalize away. Maybe our brains are designed to maintain a coherent model of reality, so anything that doesn't fit gets dismissed as a memory lapse or inattention.

Over the last two weeks, I've had three experiences that made me question that.

1. The disappearing ghee container

I was alone in my puja room with the door closed. I had two small containers of ghee: a blue one that was almost full and a yellow one that was nearly empty.

After filling the diya, I realized I needed more ghee. I reached for the blue container, but it was gone.

My two-year-old daughter had briefly entered the room, so I assumed she might have taken it. I searched around me several times during the puja and couldn't find it anywhere. Eventually I used the yellow container instead.

Just before finishing the puja, I looked up again.

The blue container was sitting directly in front of me in an obvious place that I had already checked multiple times.

2. The missing hair serum

While traveling, I packed my hair serum inside the transparent compartment of my suitcase. I specifically remember placing it there.

The next morning I opened that compartment to use it. It wasn't there.

I assumed I'd remembered incorrectly and got ready without it.

Later that night, when I opened the suitcase again, the serum was sitting exactly where I'd originally looked.

I was the only person using that suitcase and the only person using that serum.

3. Somehow missing each other

This one involved another person, which is why it stands out to me.

A friend and I were at a small café with only one path connecting the dining area to the restrooms.

I noticed she had left the table, assumed she'd gone to the restroom, and walked there myself.

I waited outside the stalls, used one when it became free, and then returned to the dining area.

She was already back.

When I asked where she'd been, she said she'd been in the restroom. The strange part is that she was just as confused as I was. Neither of us had seen the other, despite there being only one entrance/exit and a very small space where we should almost certainly have crossed paths.

I'm not claiming these experiences prove simulation theory. But if we assume, for the sake of discussion, that reality is a simulation, how would simulation theory explain events like these?

Could they be examples of:

• Dynamic rendering of objects?

• Observer-dependent reality?

• Synchronization or state-update errors?

• Memory reconciliation after an inconsistency?

Or do these experiences point to something entirely different?

I'm specifically interested in hearing from people who already view simulation theory as a plausible framework. How would you interpret these events from within that model?

Apparently the famous painting once called " Satan devouring his son " is now " Saturn devouring his son "

who else remembers it being " Satan " instead .

Coincidentally like the other post said, I woke up a couple of hours ago, I look different, I'm also male so its not hormones, I don't really know how to describe it.

I do feel better though. But something changed overnight from yesterday to today that I can't fully describe, it feels like I woke up to a different timeline.

The only different thing I did different yesterday was I went to a carnival and went on a few dangerous rides, but I had to go home early because they shut down the carnival early due to some kind of injury or something because an Ambulance was called, I never got to see who it was though, maybe there wasn't even anyone in the ambulance.
