Subject: Talking To Inanimate Objects

Written By: Ripley on 08/01/16 at 3:50 pm

I frequently talk to inanimate objects. Usually not having conversations. Nothing like, "How is your day?". But when my phone has a low signal or internet just stops working I get mad at it. Then after it starts working I apologize cause I feel bad. Its my best buddy, always by my side. So I act like it has emotions.😂And  I get mad at the TV or computer. Its not their fault its the cable service. Lmao. It's like getting mad at a table or door for stubbing my toe. I cuss at those though lmao.

Does anyone ever talk to inanimate objects in a good or bad way. And if bad do you apologize? 😁

I ALWAYS talk to inanimate objects. There is absolutely nothing wrong with that. But, when they start talking back to you, THEN you have some serious problems.

Cat,

I haven't had anything talk to me yet. Not even voices of the paranormal kind. But I've felt them around me plenty of times. And negative energy in general.

I love the smell of some herbs. I know that has nothing to do with cleansing a house. But one that I really love is bay leafs. I don't get like a kitty with catnip lol but I just really really love the smell of bay leafs.

People are surprised when I'm actually more normal than they think.  :D

No, I don't talk to inanimate objects, or cuss at them. But I still have delusions of grandeur. Okay, maybe I'm not that normal.

I have heard a humming voice around my house, two times, maybe three. It's of a woman, between ages 35 to 50, humming a tune. I probably watch too many horror movies.  :-X  :-X

I empty my cache/cookies everytime I'm done online (or so I think). And I try to make an effort to run a scan on a regular basis.

And when I don't run a scan on a regular basis, the machine will let me know in its own ways.

What did the lamp do? If there's one piece of electronic that always works the way you want it to, you can always trust your lamp.  :)

Instead of throwing it you should just rub it and see if a genie pops out.
