    Sounds like a sniper was aiming at your head and missed when you ducked down to look at your phone.

    Dad had the back window blow out of his truck one day. Tridrives are horrible for throwing rocks. Pretty much need half fenders over the front drive or you'll be buying lots of windshields.

    Some may say that these events all happening in the middle of nowhere in places like Texas, Oklahoma, and New Mexico is a coincidence, but what else are these places known for?

    Had the whole back glass jump out onto my shoulders in a R model Mack, but I was on I-65 south between Chattanooga & Birmingham too before they ironed the wrinkles out lol....

    Micrometeor'droids?
    I hear they usually target the driver side window.

    Make no mistake... they are intelligent.
    Once they have your attention they contact you as a speck of dust in your eye.
    You then assist them by trying to rub it out, allowing them further access into your head.
    This is done by aligning their magnetic field with your own, so the objects repel each other.
    They then follow the optic nerve into your brain.

    Once there, they take over the host body. Your body.

    Those that have encountered this should be afraid.
    Very, very afraid.
