First up is a creepy Reddit story that, despite originally being posted years ago, is making the internet rounds again thanks to TikTok. It features a glitch in the matrix, a creepy lamp, and a plot worthy of a horror movie.
TikTok is now obsessed (videos with #thelampstory have amassed over 40 million views), with people recreating the spooky scenario.
And some are even pointing out their own “lamp moments.”
I’m officially creeped out. Yikes.
Seriously, these tweets are almost as unhinged as Mr. Santos himself.
George Santos may have been expelled, but we should be excited about the guy running to replace him. He’s a doctor, won Olympic gold in beach volleyball, and he invented the cell phone.
