Car Ad

REALLY cool

If there's something on your mind that just doesn't seem to fall into any of the other categories, well, it quite likely belongs inside Joe Finneman's marketplace. Think of it as a general store for general discussions!

I've been doing the same thing. It made me jump the first time, though I didn't get "scared" I found it totally hallarious......but not as funny as showing it to family and friends and watching them and their reaction.

Normally I don't fall for those things. But it was like 1 in the morning when I saw it, and I was tired, and didn't forsee that (I was sitting there going 'where is the fog, all I see is the stupid ca-*insert quick heart attack*-oh, it's one of those). While it startled me, I still got a kick out of it.

Exactly the same for me. I've seen dozens of those videos and normally can spot them a mile away. What sold it was Gimp's detailed story and description. I kept looking for that stupid fog, leaning in all time like an idiot #-o

Lol. that's the first time I saw something like that. That didn't scare me at all...Probably because there's noise all around me :P. I guess it would scare you if it was night time and serene...That's the last time I fall for something :P. Oh yeah, and you should be a salesman. Very good selling! :)

First of all... it's a good thing I went to the bathroom first, before I watched that... :shock:

Now, second... were you TRYING to give me a heart-attack, or were you just wingin' it? I'm suing! :insane:

;)

You should have heard how loud I screamed... (I just watched it about 5 minutes ago) My parents had just left to go to a funeral (showing), when I started to watch it... As soon as I screamed, my mom came rushing back into the house. She thought something was wrong! Of course, my little brother thought nothing of my jr. high girl scream... I can't imagine what he'd do if I was kidnapped. :P

Did I mention that I scared my cat half to death too? :P She was sitting about 3 feet away from me when I watched it, and jumped probably just as high as I did. ;) I had the speakers turned up too (by accident, I didn't know it was going to scare the beheebeejeebees out of me!), so she got scared from the scream on the computer as well! :P

I didn't know about it on Halloween or I would have.

It startled me for about 5 seconds, then I busted up laughing at it. I just showed it to a 12 yr old girl who's visiting........she got scared and then about 30 seconds later was laughing harder than I was.

You sound like me when I first saw it, though I hadn't seen one of these before and I didn't know to expect......that.......but I too was leaning in all close to the computer looking for the mist / fog. I found it hallarious too.

And BTW, about the "detailed description" about the fog and stuff........don't give me credit, that's how it was E-mailed to me.
