Random strange VERY YOUNG childhood memory I have - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

I remember a lot of weird stuff when I was very young and since so many posts here are talking about "early days" here's a random memory I recall:

My parents lived in front of a garment factory and I remember being probably around 3 or 4, and I was on the front porch and I remember looking at the building and letting out a SHRILL SQUEAL ~I have no idea why~ and as I screamed, a sliver "exhaust pipe" type thing rose up out of the roof of the building!! One of those things you see on roofs that look like a miniature lighthouse, I guess it's some sort of a ventilation pipe.

But it's still there to this day, It's intrigued me all my life since childhood, I feel a strange connection to this "exhaust pipe" did I bring it into existence? Were they installing it the exact moment I squealed? Did someone lift me up, causing me to scream and it just looked like it came up out of the roof because I was leaving the ground?

I love how you wonder if you brought it into existence.

But maybe you had a premonition something was about to happen? Like maybe there was some tension in the air right before it happened and you were very sensitive to it.

This would have probably been around 1984, and sometimes through out my childhood I would ride my bike in the parking lot of the building, and this silver "pipe" would look like it was sticking up taller on some days than others! It has always intrigued me, even today at 42, when I visit my mom, I still stare at it when I'm outside LMAO.... When I was little about 10 probably I even tried to climb up onto the roof of the building... it was abandoned and empty by that time lol

When I was little I also named the light towers around the town lol

I've got a lot of early childhood memories, but yours will beat all of mine.
