>>1953420When I was 17 and first got my drivers license and inherited my dads old work car, I was dating another 17yo girl that lived on a cattle station in Bonegilla which was an hour-and-a-half's drive from my family home, most of it through via a shitty old road that ran over the Hume Weir wall and down through a wetland where the speed signs dropped to 50km/h. Constant fog, abandoned trout farms, spooky as shit. Ausfag, it's on the border of NSW and VIC pretty far inland.
Fearless teen, whatever, but a year into it I was run off the road by something that was twice as tall as the car and as wide as the road. And when I sat there shitting myself, the rear view mirror went blank for a few moments as something just as big passed behind me and I saw what looked like a goanna (monitor lizard) draped in camouflage netting with a upright refrigerator on its back (??). I told my parents about it because I was dumbfounded and a bit scarred.
My friends and I didn't talk about it for years, but one linked me to a local children's book about a Bunjip that lives there years afterwards and I was OH NO WTF.
I don't believe in a tall scaly hoppy Kangawallafox that scares children away from the wetlands, but I saw it (?) and it almost wrecked my car (?) and it almost killed me (?) And my closest friends still bring it up over 20 years later, and I get really scared and quiet.
I know what I saw and I know that it makes no sense
Shit was fucked yo
