0:00.0	What a Reddit's greatest mysteries of all time.
0:04.2	There was a guy on the legal advice Reddit who claimed that every time he stepped outside,
0:08.5	whether at the front or back door, his neighbor would honk their horn.
0:11.8	He said it would happen every single time without fail, but not when anyone else in his household went out.
0:16.9	He also said it was happening for several years.
0:19.5	Everyone suggested he had a mental illness,
0:21.3	which was a likely explanation, but I wish we got an update from that guy.
0:26.1	There was an account called Is There Life After Lime, as in Lyme disease. I discovered the

1:00.1	some other disease or mental health issue, but the treatments that she was taking for years certainly

1:09.4	according to her, was a sign that they were working,
1:12.0	despite seeing no improvement in her original symptoms. The comments eventually turned into
1:16.7	her begging for the guy to give her daughter back. She resumed posting for a little bit after
1:21.1	getting out of jail, but now her account is gone again. There was a post in the relationship
1:26.1	credit maybe a year ago from a woman who had found
