Ventriloquism
by johannespunkt
“How do you define an out-of-body experience? I think I’m having one.”
“Most people who who claim to have them don’t speak or move, or aren’t able to speak or move, during the experience. It is when you are outside your own body.”
“I was catatonic until I was four, when suddenly I spoke like there was never anything wrong with me. I think I was never inside my own body, I just learned to puppet it.”
The doctor held his hands behind his back. “How many fingers am I holding up?”
The patient got it right every time.
