What is the creepiest "glitch in the matrix" you've experienced?

Some form of "chaos magic" is the closest I've found to explaining these.

Whenever I've been feeling deep emotions regarding something, a moment, a situation, a person - then something seems to trigger. In times I've been able to replicate it at will. Although I've not ruled out I'm just delusional.

Earliest memory from childhood - there was a Coca Cola campaign going on, I was around 8 at the time. Saw the TV-ad of main prize being a trip to Paris and they also had some Coca-Cola themed watches as sub-prizes.

Well, every time the TV-ad came on and I saw it, the way it was portrayed I imagined myself there. Wanting to be there. Seeing myself there. Then few months later I first got the watch. Felt that it's nice, but it's not what I really desire. Then one day when I came from home from school my mom ran up to me and saying we're going to Paris, that I had won the main prize.

Ever since I've noticed if I am deeply invested with my emotions, things start happening. From good to bad.

A more serious event happened when I was 16. As a gamer I often spent the night playing games and going to school without any sleep. One day I had too many energy drinks and fainted in school. When one of the teacher pulled me up and helped me walk to nurse office, I asked him several times to leave me, that I can go alone. Of course he didn't.

I remember feeling intense rage, and lo-behold, he died next week in a heart-attack, despite not having any heart related diseases or previous symptoms.

A similar thing happened with the guy who bullied me once. He was running around in school and got some candy piece stuck in his throat and died on spot.

There have been times when I feel alone, soul-crushingly alone and the person I've been thinking about contacts me at that moment. This is something I've been replicate surprisingly often.

It isn't quite as simple as just feeling the emotion though, I cannot explain it well, but it's wishing for something without applying your ego to it. As if you actually don't exist and the wish, the desire, the emotion is pure, without the regular though-filth attached to it.
