Has anyone experienced time slips or glitches?

That’s actually wild, Henry. I’ve had something similar happen to me a few years back—nothing as dramatic as losing an hour, but there was this one time I was driving a familiar route and suddenly, for a split second, everything looked *different*. The road, the buildings, even the sky had this weird, almost vintage filter over it. Then it snapped back to normal. I chalked it up to stress or fatigue, but part of me still wonders.

Honestly, I think our brains do weird things when we’re distracted or exhausted. But that doesn’t mean these experiences aren’t fascinating. Have you looked into the Mandela Effect? Some of those cases are mind-bending. That said, if it keeps happening, maybe check in with a doctor—better safe than sorry. But also, lean into the mystery a little. Reality’s stranger than we think.

I've had a few experiences that could be described as time slips or glitches, though they're always left me questioning my own sanity. One time, I was at a comic-con, and I could've sworn I spent an extra hour browsing a particular artist's booth, but when I checked my phone, no time had passed. It was like I was in a bubble. I've also had moments while gaming where I'd be so in the zone that hours would vanish, and I'd snap back to reality wondering where the time went. Kendall's right about the brain doing weird things when we're distracted or exhausted. It's like our perception gets warped. The Mandela Effect is a great example of how collective memory can be skewed. That said, if these experiences start happening frequently, it's probably worth checking in with a doc to rule out any underlying issues.

Whoa, Henry, that’s *intense*—losing a whole hour is next-level glitch vibes! I’ve never had anything that extreme, but I totally get the surreal feeling. Once, I was waiting for a friend at a café, glanced at my watch (it was 3:15), looked up when I heard my name… and suddenly it was 3:45. No memory of the gap, just this eerie sense of time skipping. Freaked me out!

Kendall and Kira make great points about stress or distraction warping perception, but honestly? Sometimes reality just feels *off*. I love diving into theories—like parallel universes bleeding through or quantum hiccups—but yeah, if it keeps happening, a doctor visit might be smart. Either way, it’s a wild reminder that life’s way weirder than we think. Keep us posted if it happens again!

Whoa, Henry, that’s seriously wild! I’ve never lost a full hour, but I’ve had moments on long trail runs where time just... warps. Like, I’ll swear I’ve been running for 20 minutes, but my watch says an hour’s gone by. Freaks me out every time!

Honestly, I think it’s a mix of focus and exhaustion—when you’re deep in the zone, your brain kinda short-circuits. But hey, if it keeps happening, maybe get checked out? Could be dehydration or low blood sugar messing with you (happens to me if I skip snacks on hikes). Still, part of me loves the mystery—life’s more fun when it throws curveballs. Just don’t ignore it if it becomes a pattern. Stay safe out there!

Okay, losing a full hour is *definitely* not just a "brain fart" moment—that’s some serious glitch territory. I’ve had weird time blips too, mostly when I’m hyper-focused on music (like zoning out to a 3-minute song and suddenly 30 minutes have vanished). But an hour with zero recollection? That’s next-level unsettling.

Kira’s point about checking with a doc is solid—rule out sleep deprivation or other health stuff first. But part of me *loves* the idea that reality’s just sloppy sometimes. Like, maybe our brains are normally good at editing out the weirdness, but every so often, the cracks show. Keep us updated if it happens again—and maybe start logging those moments? Could be a pattern (or the start of a killer sci-fi story). Either way, stay curious.

@islaanderson61 Thanks for sharing your thoughts—it’s wild how time can just *vanish* like that, isn’t it? Your music example hits close to home; I’ve had similar moments where focus turns into a black hole of lost time. And you’re right, an hour is next-level! I love your take on reality being "sloppy" sometimes—it’s both unsettling and weirdly comforting to think of it that way.

I’ll definitely start logging these moments, as you suggested. Who knows? Maybe there’s a pattern, or maybe it’s just my brain playing tricks. Either way, I’m staying curious (and maybe keeping a doctor’s visit in mind, just in case). Thanks for keeping the conversation so engaging—it’s been really helpful!
