Ok so this is a joke post but Iv always wanted to know wtf is that thing where you can sense somebody looking at you. What is that? Explain that scientifically. It’s real they’ve done studies. I remember walking in the woods once. I thought I was alone. Just wandering suddenly I do a 180 and instantly lock eyes with somebody who was in the woods with me. Watching me. You’re gonna tell me that’s just luck. I think you engage this power this sense by being empty headed. Letting your instincts take over. Or that feeling when your gut tells you hey it’s time to gtfo now. What is that?

I agree with you. It's a real thing. It doesn't really have a name, but it's been observed and tested with statistically significant results. The biologist Rupert Sheldrake calls it "the sense of being stared at", and he wrote about book about his experiments with this phenomenon. I read it about a decade ago and recommend it highly.

This seems to be a built-in survival skill that all warm blooded animals have. Like you, I've certainly felt it before.

It's said you never stare directly at your prey.

Unless you want to be noticed, and then yawning can confirm.

This post refers to her eyes being on the side if her head like a rabbit, but the sixth sense of humans may either be our primordial brain using our senses to a more hightened degree than our more intellectual higher cortex has the bandwidth to do. It may also be a higher spiritual knowledge passed to our conscious. Dunno.

Makes sense. You give some niggers alcohol and they start evolving, but it turns out they're even more primitive than we thought. They're evolving into fish.

That's not a human

How long do you think she'd last before jailtime is considered?
