The fuck it's gonna do if I'm dead?
Know its dead.
Huh, so other people also have this? Also regularly?
You've never had a unique experience in your life
The amount of times I’ve kicked or smacked my wife when my limbs go flying cause of this… I’ve lost count
An ex elbowed me directly in the eye once doing this...ouch.
The fucking worst.
It's your brain being confused. It hasn't gone to sleep yet but your muscles have. So the brain is like: yo leg, you dead? And fucking jolts it. Then he's like "woah no need to freak out. kk we good, we're going to sleep btw". And then you sleep.
This is like ELI5 but better. I just can't put my finger on why
It's relatable and told in a humorous way, it kinda feels like a nice relative telling you a story as a kid
