--> When it gets late at night, sometimes I get this weird phenomenon that occurs... in my brain, I guess.

Essentially, words that I encounter get picked up and repeated as triplets by an uncontrollable voice in my head. It's like feeding two syllable words through a 100% wet delay with fairly high feedback, or like an endless mirror.
But it's a little more complex too. There, sometimes, are two (or more) sets of triplets. In on set, the two syllabel words are repeated very fast, in triplets, and in the second set, the syllabels are stretched out somehow... It's hard to figure out exactly what's going on, because it's not tangible and the pattern is rather complex.

It's odd that they occur to me as triplets, because there's no beat to identify them as such.

Does anybody else experience anything akin to this?

all i hear late at night is the screams of the innocent, same as everyone.

triplets? i think you're losing it.

triplets are natural.
everything is in 3s.

jdg has 3 moobs for instance.

maybe you should stop doing acid and meth the same time?

tourettes?

6/8 or 3/4?

This is true. 4/4 is very much a result of the industrial revolution.

Machines are in 2 and 4. People are in 3.

guuuuyyyysssss!

this has been happening for as long as i can remember, long before i ever did drugs!

sorry, any excuse to post some furry freak brothers ;)

it's probably connected to the linguistic centres of your brain. in my opinion as a rank amateur neurologist, i'd say it was caused by the same function that allows the brain to hear sounds as words, to hear repeated words differently ("leafleafleaf" becomes "fleafleaflea"), and to completely mishear words altogether.

is it only words you hear or words you read. or both?

my advice - drink less coffee
