L’appel du vide, literally “the call of the void”, is a French phrase
used to refer to intrusive thoughts or the urge to engage in
self-destructive behavior during everyday life.[1]

Most commonly reported examples include thinking
about swerving into oncoming traffic while driving,
or feeling the urge to jump off a cliff’s edge while
overlooking one.

    I dont really put my hands close to the blades when it’s unplugged either. One could have a brain fart and think it’s unplugged.
    Paranoid? Yes. Farted? Often. Brain? MIA
