- Stay calm: Don’t post angry or to vent or complain. We are a place where everyone can forget about their everyday or not so everyday worries for a moment. Venting, complaining, or posting from a place of anger or resentment doesn't fit the atmosphere we try to foster at all. Feel free to post those on !goodoffmychest@lemmy.world

This happened when I was 16. I caught a glimpse of a man jumping and waving his hands in the middle of the road, briefly illuminated by my moped’s headlights as I was turning onto another road. I stopped immediately, wondering what the hell I'd just seen. My friend, who was riding behind me, stopped alongside and asked if I'd seen the same thing. We turned around and went back - less than a minute later - and the man was nowhere to be found.
The thing is, there was a deep ditch full of water on the other side of the road, with a huge open field on the other. The only plausible escape route would’ve been through that ditch and into the woods, but there were no signs of that - and it wouldn't have made sense anyway, since he seemed to be deliberately trying to get our attention.
