My friend and I decided that I have the WEIRDEST mutant superpower

OK, so some context.

I don't have a laundry hook-up at my place, so I have to drive about 7min down the road to the laundromat. I do laundry weekly and usually on the same day of the week.

For some reason, probably about 70% of the time, when I do laundry it rains or snows. It could be dry the rest of the week leading up to and following the day I do laundry. It could be clear all day. It could be clear literally except for the 2 hrs that I'm doing laundry!!! That day's precipitation may have been predicted to occur hours before I go to do laundry (and it doesn't happen, so I assume we got missed), or hours after I should be done. It will almost always end up coming "off-schedule" right when I'm doing laundry.

It'll show up either as I'm lugging the multiple loads from my car into the laundromat, so I have to sit in damp clothes, or as I'm trying to rush my freshly dried clothes out to the car.

It got to the point that my friend and I joke that if it's raining/snowing (especially a heavy precipitation), it's because I must be in the middle of doing laundry.

Another weird thing about me? Smut seems to just manifest when I'm in the room.

This has been happening for years now. My husband would pick an anime that's supposed to be full of fanservice, and it's actually relatively tame.

I'll pick one that's supposed to be a romance or action or... SOMETHING NOT SMUT... and the fanservice shows up in spades. My husband will just do this slow head turn towards me whenever it shows up on screen and I'll just be like, "It's not me! I didn't mean to pick this!" (no shade for those who enjoy smut, it just always seems to show up when I'm not AIMING to watch it... and you kinda have to be in the right mindset... at least *I* do... *ahem* ANYHOO!)

It's gotten to the point where my husband will be watching a show. It will be action packed. Not even a hint of romance between the characters. I will walk through the living room, just passing through for something. The next scene will be either something highly sensual, very sexually-charged, and/or a full-on sex scene.

"What did you do to my show!?" he'd teasingly yell. "IT ISN'T ME!" I'd yell back.

Case and point, I can't recall which isekai he was watching at the time, but Hubby was about 7 episodes in. No romance arc. No flirting. No "female characters vying for the male lead's attention" trope. Purely action.

I get home from work, and pass through the living room to go get changed.

The next scene has the male lead sodomizing a dragon with a spike as a form of torture... but she's also kinda sorta really into it and is moaning sensually?????

I poke my head back in: "WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU WATCHING!?"

"I DUNNO! IT WASN'T LIKE THIS UNTIL YOU INFLUENCED IT!"

Literally, the next episode it went back to the normal action-based anime with virtually no sexual content. Hubby told me that scene with the dragon was basically the most sexual the series got....

You get the gist.

Anyway, fast forward to tonight, and the conversation I had with my friend that I joke about the laundry weather with.

Keep in mind, where I live it is perfectly normal that it's snowing in February.

People who've seen me in discord know I have this special ability to track down an episode by screenshot or vague quote, typically within minutes. Well, my irl friends also know I'm like a bloodhound lmfao...

I need to update my list on ANN for the next time this happens lol

idk thinking about how sometimes you have to show up for people you aren't that close to, because sometimes you're just the person who's there. sometimes you invite a new friend to a party and end up having to sit with them through a panic attack. sometimes you run into an acquaintance on their worst day and they need to talk about what happened. sometimes someone is crying in a stairwell and you're the only one around to ask if they're okay. and none of this is "trauma dumping" or whatever the fuck it's just being there for people because you're the one in the room with them.
