glitch in matrix
Simulation reveals itself
A glitch in the matrix is a moment when reality seems to stutter or repeat—something uncanny that suggests the world might be a simulation with occasional bugs.
From the 1999 film *The Matrix*, where a repeated black cat signals a system error.
People use it for déjà vu, impossible coincidences, or eerily perfect patterns: Seeing my doppelgänger on the train was a total glitch in the matrix.
