So McDonalds bags have "Wake up with McDonald's Coffee" on the side of them currently, amongst many other advertisements.

The issue I take with this is that "WAKE UP" is in big, bold font compared to all the other words. That caught my eye when I was running past it in my kitchen, in that way that you'll focus on something enough that it seems to take up your entire vision for a spit second.. Cue momentary flash of existential terror. Goddamnit, don't do that McDonalds.
please wake up

It has been reported that some victims of torture, during the act, would retreat into a fantasy world from which they could not wake up. In this catatonic state, the victim lived in a world just like their normal one, except they weren’t being tortured. The only way that they realized they needed to wake up was a note they found in their fantasy world. It would tell them about their condition, and tell them to wake up. Even then, it would often take months until they were ready to discard their fantasy world and PLEASE WAKE UP.

... Sorry, it's very appropiate, so WAKE UP.

Fuck human vision detecting shapes and making them look like faces/bodies.
There was this specific light from the moon shining through my curtains creating a shadow on the wall that looked like legit face in the darkness.
That sacred me so hard i grabbed my old hockey stick and was ready to swing my hardest at anything in front of me.

Pretty much the only thing that gets me is existential/psychological horror, which I seem to be much more susceptible to than most people.  I've always felt a need to emotionally comprehend situations in their broadest possible context, and that kind of works against me there.

Jump/visual scares don't do anything except make me shiver for a split second.  Even when they happen in meatspace and are genuinely creepy.  A couple weeks ago I was hanging out online with some people in a short downtime between gaming.  All of a sudden I heard a repeating noise that sounded as if a grown man was stomping on the floor right next to me for several seconds.  I calmly looked over and saw nothing there, so I ignored it.

Maybe people should love for the sake of loving, and not with all of these optimization conditions.

This vacuum cleaner. This ever-loving graces-hell-and-back vacuum cleaner at the hotel I worked at. It didn't matter where I put it. It didn't matter if it was plugged in or not. You go through so many rooms, cleaning them up, etc, and they all look a certain way, except when there's a vacuum cleaner in there, and since you get so used to the rhythm and droll of it, the baser portion of your consciousness screams at it when you catch the thing in your peripherals. You think it's no big deal, but empty hotels are quiet, and doubly creepy, and there's just this shape that doesn't fit anywhere when it's not put away and it'll startle you a stupidly large number of times when it's just a vacuum cleaner.

Just a vacuum cleaner.

I'm so glad I quit.

I had a thing where random clothes sitting on the floor would all look, out of the corner of my eye, exactly like my cat. Not so much creepy as 'what the hell brain, clothes am not cat', though.

If there is a spot on a wall that is worn-looking under light, in darkness it immediately becomes an all-consuming void, even once my nightvison kicks in.

What if clouds are miniature eldritch abominations and when you're riding in a car in the middle of a flat plain in the middle of nowhere with no cars around they could just swoop down and grab your car and eat it and nobody would know

I can tell all of you personally that this is totally false and should not be taken accurately at all. Don't beware of clouds and you absolutely shouldn't look out for them when you're all alone.

Yesterday I saw a fast small cloud fly behind a slightly larger cloud and it didn't return from the other side
