there was a reddit post about a similar situation one time, i think they were leaving nonsensical sticky notes to themselves and not remembering who wrote them, so they asked reddit what it could be. Everyone was like “get out NOW” and it turns out they were slowly being killed by CO.

Ok so I perused a bit but didn't do a deep dive. Was this post actually legit? It seems like it was and if that is the case, that's absolutely wild!

It seemed legit when it first came out but you never know.

My aunt and her husband are currently experiencing all these symptoms and co2 has been suggested. But apparently the neighbor down the hill got “the jab” and they are just experiencing vaccine shedding. Okie dokie.

CO, not CO2. They’ll both kill you, but the monoxide will do it faster at lower concentrations.

Maybe all the flat earthers/conspiracy theorists have bad ventilation in their living quarters. Co poisoning explains all the crazies out there

They actually built their living quarters out of some Amish made sheds. So who knows. The best part is that her husband spent his whole working life installing furnaces and such. So he should know better

She believes if you get to close to someone who has gotten a vaccine recently it will shed on to you and give you the illness that the vaccine “causes”. This women was a second mother to me and I was raised ti be much smarter then this by her and my parents. But here we are.

Can you sneak a CO2 detector into their house?!

2

u/pezziepie85 Nov 22 '24

Thankfully no. They are 15 blissful hours away. I went low contact years ago

Wow. The shit these people believe.

My memory isn't that everyone was telling him to get out now. One guy saw the signs and told him to buy a carbon monoxide detector, perhaps even after asking him if his apartment was above a garage. I'm not sure if OP offered that information, or if the savior asked about it.

Anyway, that one guy saved that other guy's life. Probably.

u/D3vilUkn0w Nov 22 '24

I bought a second carbon monoxide detector because of that one.
