Seizure when falling asleep...
Okay, let me explain my subject. I just finished watching the movie 'Next' (we went with some friends of ours (hi!) to a drive-in theatre to watch it but bug was getting too fussy so we had to leave early so I netflix'd it). Cool movie, the ending didn't bother me, actually, I felt it actually fit with the rest of the movie.
Anyways, curious about it, I looked it up online, ended up on Wikipedia's article, then on their article on premonition, etc. That linked to the theory that some premonitions are due to what amounts to a technical mini-epileptic seizure on the temporal lobe, making one think they saw something before (kind of a like a hiccup). I ended up on their article on Deja Vu and found out that that little hiccup you get when you go to sleep, right when you're on the edge of sleep - well that's technically a mini-epileptic seizure too (it's called a hypnagogic jerk)! I had no clue other people even got those - I thought I was just weird (cue the 'um, yeah, you're weird anyways' comments). Just weird, just plain weird. I had no clue.
