I use to work at a boutique in North Jersey. On lunch break I would share my lunch with a homeless man that always spent time on a bench near the boutique. He was very polite and was down on his luck. This went on for about a year then I had to move away. I moved to another town in South Jersey near Wildwood. I was on lunch break one day and ran to wawa to grab a sub and a few other items. When I went to pay I realized I left my wallet in my other purse. I was so embarrassed so I apologized the the girl at the counter and left. Less than a minute later I heard some one call out “young lady,” I looked back and the man behind me had paid for my lunch and was bringing it out to me. When we were face to face we both recognized each other. It was the homeless man. We both were wide eyed and so thrilled. I gave him a hug and this was years later. He had gotten a job and was doing really well. He told me he’s always been generous with people because of what I did for him. I will never forget him and our story. Life is full of surprises. His name is Robert. I hope he’s doing alright.
Many years ago, I was dropping a movie off at Blockbuster video when i locked my keys in the car. While unsuccessfully attempting to use a coathanger to open the door, I said loudly, "Where's a professional car thief when you need one?" A car had just parked next to me, and the driver said, "right here." Turns out, he was a repoman! We were married a year and a half later. He unlocked my car and stole my heart. ❤
My partner grew up pretty poor and worked at the mall McDonald's as a teenager. It was the early 2000’s and North Face fleeces were all the rage. He found a jacket in the mall lost and found that looked similar to one and wore it throughout highschool. 15ish years later we met and when he learned my last name he was shocked because it was my dad’s company’s jacket he had worn all those years ago. He wore my last name across his heart years before we had met.
I started reading all these comments and completely blocked out the sound to the video unintentionally. Just crazy how interesting some of these comments can be.
I had been 18yr for about 5 months. I lived in eastern Washington and had a opportunity to go snow skiing at Jackson hole Wyoming. Long story short my ride had Fallin threw. So without thinking it through I decided to hitchhike. Keep in mind I had skis on my shoulder. The first car that stopped were 2 college age girls headed home for Xmas. And they would be driving through Jackson hole. After skiing my buddies family had to leave the condo (rich friend let me stay with them at a condo. They were going to Montana to see family). My friends mom gave me enough $ for a bus ticket home, but her son convinced me( while out drinking ) that he would pay me back if we spent the money. Well that fell through and they left. So I headed out to hitchhike home. The snowbanks from the plows were so high that I didn't think the drivers could see me. It began getting dark and I was honestly scared. Wyoming is vast and absent of people. I decided I would ditch my skis ($300 was a lot of money back then). As I headed down the snow bank to throw away my skis I heard a cars horn. It was the same 2 college age women headed home. I have often thought back on that fateful evening and today believe those 2 women were angels. I was so naive to the world. I believe it was 8 degrees outside when they picked me up. Not a winter goes by that I don't think of the 2 girls who picked up a stranger with snow skis hitchhiking. As I write this I just want to say thank you! I was a young 18 and they were early 20s. I don't know if I would be here today without them. I never saw them again. But I never have forgotten them. They were the first people I remember saying "pay it forward". I have paid it forward lady's. Thank u again
One year, I went to Girl Scout camp about 2 hours away from home. That night, I had a nightmare that my daddy had passed while I was away and I didn’t get to hug him bye. I awoke right after, so upset that I gave myself a fever and my leader had to call my parents to come and get me in the middle of the night. My mother was so angry, but Dad just held me and said it was ok because he’d missed me too. That was early Sunday morning. The next day, Mom went to work while Dad was still sleeping. I went to check on him when he wasn’t up by 10am. He wouldn’t wake up. I called Mom and she called an ambulance. They took him to the hospital and he passed about 4 weeks later. Never came back home. But if I’d not gone home that Sunday, I’d have never been able to hug him again because he was in ICU the whole time after I’d found him unconscious.
❤ sending thoughts and prayers. I've done this a few times, seen things happen before they do, and it's upsetting and scary. If we're lucky we realise and act upon these warnings.
When I was a kid we named our cat “dog” just to be quirky. After 12 years “dog” died and we decided to adopt a dog from the local shelter. As we were looking at the available dogs we came upon one pit mix named “Cat”. We didn’t even think twice and adopted “Cat” immediately.
I was looking for names for a story and used a phone book by closing my eyes and pointing to get random names. I pointed to the name Cyrus Parastar and thought to myself 'There is no way that name could be natural ' Within the week i went to my credit union and was talking to a lady that worked there and i brought up that name and how unique it was. She started laughing, 'Thats my husband '! 😮
I have gotten names for a story the same way before. I grew up in a rural area, where everyone near me was related some way, on my dad’s side. Our phone book was tiny. So small you could roll it up and stick it in a pocket. One time trying to find a name, I decided to randomly open the book and pick the name of the first person I saw who was not related to me. I found one with an odd last name. Turned out it was a relative on my mom’s side. Most of her family live at the other end of our state and the few left in our area lived a county over and I had never met any of them.
Once driving home in the pouring rain after a terrible day at work, with a migraine and horrible menstrual cramps, I experienced a miracle. I was less than a mile from home and I caught a red light. When it turned green, I pressed the gas but my car stalled. I cursed, not wanting to get out into the torrential downpour and deal with whatever the problem might be. I put the car in park and turned the key. As the engine immediately fired up, a car came blazing through the intersection going around 80 mph. I would have been directly in its path if my car hadn't stalled. Shaking I thanked God and proceeded home, my car never stalled again.
@@OneOfUsHere An old friend had a similar experience. He was driving down a country lane, and the engine suddenly cut out, he lost speed, and then the engine fired up again. A few seconds later a car in the other lane briefly lost control, skidded onto my friend's side of the road, then regained control. If his engine hadn't cut out for those few seconds it would have been a head on collision
My husband's good friend G moved out of state and for several years they only communicated by phone. Every now and then G asked my husband to come visit, but he was always busy with work which made that difficult. One day my husband decided that he was going to carve out time to visit and booked a flight for a couple days later. He had an awesome week in Florida with G and his wife fishing, beaching, relaxing, golfing, and antiquing. The day after my husband got back home G's wife called in hysterics letting him know that G died from a widowmaker heart attack. G wasn't super young but was a very active, fit, and healthy guy. He had recently got a clean bill of health at a regular checkup. We were all SO grateful that my husband felt pulled to make time for that trip to have one last hurrah with his good buddy. ❤
There's a few things that are called widowmakers in specific fields, but the one I'm most familiar with is a dead tree limb that just falls off or is blown off by the wind
In 1971 I was on a US destroyer in the Mediterranean doing surveillance on the Soviet fleet. One day, a Russian Cruiser got kinda aggressive in their shiphandling, we were standing on the main deck in the chow line, somebody said oh shit! I looked behind me, there was this Cruiser headed right towards us, they cam within a meter or less. On the Cruiser, there was a line of Russian sailors doing the same as us, waiting for chow! I could see that we all were (in a manner of speaking) in the same boat! 😊 Years later, I'm an engineer on merchant ships, had a junior engineer that was from Ukraine originally. We're talking and he tells me that the first time he saw an American was when he was on a Russian Cruiser and they just about rammed an American destroyer! I asked when was that? 1971! Yup! He was one of those Russian sailors I saw...
My grandmother had been ill and was in the hospital in her early 80s, I went to visit and was told that she was doing much better and would be coming home soon, great news! But when the other relatives left the room and we were alone, I had this sudden feeling and said to her "youre not getting out of here without saying goodbye to me" which seems so odd and out of character for me, I looked deep into her eyes and we hugged and said good bye- a few days later the phone call came that she had passed. 30 years ago and I miss her still!
I'm so glad you took your opportunity to really say goodbye to her ❤ I completely understand when you say that you still miss her, even though a lot of time has passed. My grandma passed away 10 years ago and I miss her every day!
I was married and in the Marine Corps. My husband and I were stationed in Iwakini, Japan. There was a really good Japanese restaurant right off base we frequented and got to know the owners, a retired Marine and a Japanese national. I was pregnant and always starving so we ate there about 3 times a week for a year straight. Fast forward 5 years later, we are stationed in South Carolina and I just had to try the new Japanese restaurant that just opened up down the street from our house. Walked in and the owners were, you guessed it, that same couple! And the food was still just as amazing.
I worked in London in a 1-year internship program at Citi. The end of my term overlapped with this guy from South Carolina who was just starting his internship. A year later I was in NY and bought a postcard to send back to my old team at Citi. When I turned around from the blue mailbox the guy from South Carolina was standing behind me. He was mailing a postcard back to the team at Citi.
I read this in a local newspaper. A recent high school grad lost her engraved class ring while swimming in Lake Michigan. Months later she was eating in a roadside diner when a patron walked in and gave the waitress a class ring he just found in the parking lot. It was, of course, her class ring. The theory was that the gravel, including her ring, in the parking lot had been drudged from her swimming spot on the Lake and spread on the diner parking lot-- and found when she was inside eating.
In 1994, I was arrested in NYC for buying heroin. I was placed next to another guy in the van, and we struck up an acquaintance with him. When we were released the next day, he gave me ride back to NJ. 5 years later, in San Francisco, I quite literally ran into him while going around the corner of the block. He had also moved there, about 2 blocks from me.
I have had very similar events happen to me so far 3 separate time's with 3 different people over the course of 70 year's. So now I kinda expect to randomly see/run into people who I thought I would never see again. It's just called living life and seeing how it turns out !
yes, when you are on a vacation or trip out of state, its always crazy to see someone else from your home town. What are the odds they went to the same place, same time, and you would even notice eachother? Its happened to me twice. ,
I went for a foot xray at the walk in medical centre. Everyone with an appointment was taken to sit in a small corridor. My phone received a text and made a loud notification noise. So I apologised to the guy sitting next to me about the noise of my phone. I asked if he had travelled far to get here and he said a place a couple of miles near where I lived. I told him I lived at Westerhope and he said oh I used to live there in the 1980s. Then he said my street name and I said that is where I am. We both said number 21 at the same time and laughed. This was in 2009. He asked if the dark wood kitchen was still there as he had built it himself. It was so bizarre to think He had been a previous owner of that house all those years ago.
LσL. My daughter's grandparents had a couple life-sized statues in their yard. A elk and a moose. My now boyfriend and I were talking one day and he was saying that his brother in law had him help a few life sized statues in their yard years ago.. haha turns out his brother in law had been the one to sell their house to my daughter's grandparents.
I was in a drama class in high school back in the 90’s,. We were having a competition between 20+ schools. After everyone was finished, were all waiting to hear the results of our competition. I heard some one call my last name, I found it odd because I was sitting with everyone that knew me, I turned to see who was calling me, and way in the back of the auditorium, I seen a guy not looking my way, but called my last name again, I yelled what did he need, not recognizing him, he looked at me, and said I wasn’t talking to you, I was talking to Brian Darga, and he pointed to another guy. The guy he was pointing at stood up and I asked him what his name was? He said Brian Darga! I walked over to him, pulled out my drivers license and told him that was my name too! It turned out he was a cousin I had never met before. Even crazier, he had two older brothers, 4 and 5 years older than he was, with the same names as my two older brothers that are both 4 and 5 years older than I am!
My little cousin and i once went to a barbershop around the corner from where i lived at random one day back in the early 90s. There was a news story on the tv about Mardi Gras. The two barbers started talking about "going home" to NOLA for Mardi Gras. I asked the barber cutting my hair if that is where he was from and he said yes. I told him that is where my grandmother was from. He asked me what her last name was and i told him. Its a french name. He said it a few times and said he didn't recognize the name but said he knew some folks but with a similar sounding name. Knowing how southern people spoke and with their accents (and mispronunciations of names), i asked him what their first names were. He began naming my grandmothers older brothers and sisters! I stopped him and named the rest of them. He said "yes, thats them". I told him who my grandmother was and he told me that he came out to los angeles back in 1942 on the train with my grandmother, her first husband and her best friend! Turned out he was best friends with my grandmothers older brother and their families knew each other since elementary school. My grandmother had been deceased for about 6 years at that point so i called her older sister who was well into her 70s and she remembered this man. Tripped me out!
I have been a genealogist all of my adult life. When I was engaged, I traced my fiance's family tree to Alabama. I found records if his g-g-g-grandfather's grave in a little remote town that was not even on the map (no internet then) We made a trip to Montgomery to check the archives for old maps with hopes of finding the location. We found the general vicinity and there were two cemeteries. We stopped at the larger one and found his grave! What a find and good luck, however that was really nothing compared to what else found. Right next to him was his wife, which was my g-g-g-grandmother's-+ grave! I had been looking for her for a really long time and had almost given up on her.
@@daydream_believerThat was my first thought, that they were related (4th cousins). But the more likely answer is their plots were next to each other... No relation.
@@adamhunsaker9982she said her ggg grandma was his ggg grandpas wife. So, not just buried next to him. But that doesn’t 100% mean they are related - they could have been second spouses.
@@daydream_believerhopefully they are still together. They wouldn’t be close cousins - so not illegal. And I would think they are far enough down the line where it’s safe to have kids (which is the only reason close relatives are illegal anyway). Hopefully they’re still together & it’s a good story to pass down.
One Sunday after the church service, we had put both babies in the double stroller and getting ready to walk home, someone asked us if we would like a lift home. We thanked them but refused as it was more hassle to get the children out of the stroller, collapse it, put the children in the car etc etc than it would be to make the short walk home. On the way out of the hall someone else stopped us and offered a lift. On the way out of the front doors yet another person stopped us to offer. My husband and I commented to each other it was weird ... no one ever offered us a lift home (probably because it was such a short walk). So we set off down the road, and just ahead of us a car lost control and mounted the pavement. If those three people hadn't stopped us to offer a lift, we'd have been right there on the pavement, and we'd have all been killed.
When the universe pushes me off course like that 3 times in a row, I take the hint and follow wherever it leads. Sometimes, good things come of it and sometimes nothing comes of it and I wonder what bad thing I might have avoided.
When I was looking for colleges I wasn't able to find what I wanted, this was before the internet was in common use. My dad was asking me about it on Friday. The next day a friend of my dad's called him and they started talking. They hadn't spoken in 35 years. While we're catching up and the guy mentioned his daughter was working on a PhD in my desired field. My dad said that I had wanted to be in the same field. The friend told my dad what school his daughter went to. I looked up the school a few days later and it fit what I wanted. I now have my degree from there. I stayed in the area and built a life here. I truly believe that the universe guides you in the direction that is best for you if you tune in and listen to your instincts.
I visited my mother at her house before I got a plane to Morocco in the late 2009. On that day I had a short chat and drink of tea whilst in the background I heard the sound of a lawnmower in the front garden . One week later I was on a tour on a bus , we got off and had a stretch , we decided to go to a nearby cafe , my partner went to the toilet whilst I sat and got into the shade . Suddenly behind me a man said “ are you Linda’s son ?” I looked round there was a man that looked familiar , but i was struggling to place him . He had a West Midlands accent . He stood up stretched out his hand and said “ tell your mum I’ll Finnish the back garden next week!” Smiled and said I’ve got to go back to the bus now I was astonished to realise this man was the gardener who had been mowing the lawn the day I left the Uk at my mums house . I was in total shock as when my girlfriend came back from the toilet he’d already gone . I said what I experienced and she simply didn’t believe me , but I swear this definitely happened . .
When my daughter was born I was in the waiting room at the hospital with another man whose wife was also having a baby. The babies, both girls, were born at pretty much the same time. I didn’t know the man, had never seen him before. Six months later we’re having our daughter baptised in a Catholic Church that was the local church to the area where we had recently moved. The priest said there would be another baptism at the same time. When we got there, you’ve guessed it, I recognised the father as the very same man who had been in the waiting room with me.
My dad lost his class ring at hid girlfriend's house, they looked everywhere and couldn't find it. A few years later my grandpa was working at a furniture store. He was taking cushions of if a used couch to clean and resell. My dad's class ring was in that couch.
I met a girl and we got together. We lived in different houses but the same city. One day, she was driving my car and got home to her house but didn't have a key to her house because she had my keys. For whatever reason, she decided to use my key to open her door to her home and lo and behold my house key opened her door to her house. Also, it turns out her house key opens my door with neither being hard to put into the door or hard to turn. It's a perfect match. We're also married now.
That's actually about a 1 in 30 chance if the locks used the same stock key, and even better odds if the factory isn't truly randomizing them. Car makers used to be seriously bad about only using a handful of combinations. Until the 1980s it was pretty common to have one key fit 20% of cars with the same model. My aunt once accidentally stole a car identical to hers. She's bought it new only a few months before and got into someone else's when leaving a shopping mall. She didn't know it until she was stopped for driving a stolen care a few days later and when finding out where it was stolen from and when they put tho pieces together and they found her car still where she'd left it.
Not trying to take away from this sweet story, I know how near & dear they are. So as a warning, if this is YOUR sweet story, you may find the rest of this comment disappointing, please don't shoot the messenger. It is still a necessary psa, imo, and that's why I decided to share. I'm surprised that it is not more widely known that it is not uncommon for keys to work in multiple locks- the reasons why are explained well in this Quora post- Reposted from Quora (link below): "Answer to I purchased two of the same door lock sets and the keys are identical and open the locks out of different packages. Is this common? by Buster Ecks Yes, surprisingly common. When it comes to the production and manufacturing of locks, each manufacturer typically uses a handful of “like” keys. So it’s not at all uncommon or surprising that if you and 15 other people buy the same brand lockset that 2 or 3 of you will have the same key and can unlock each other’s doors. Why? Easier quality control and replacements. It’s far easier to make and keep paired 1 of 5 keys that work in a lock than to do the same for hundreds keys. It’s with this in mind that you’d want to hire a locksmith to re-key your locks thus giving you a far more unique lock that no longer works with the default keys. It’s at this point that many people say “I spent $20 on a lock, why would I spend another $50 to have someone re-key each?!” My response: security for the most expensive item you own and housing for other pricey items. To be fair, each manufacturer and even product line is going to have a few unique keys. So don’t expect to obtain 5 different Kwikset keys and expect one to work on a Defiant lock. But in the end, it’s worth noting the old proverb that locks are for honest people." www.quora.com/I-purchased-two-of-the-same-door-lock-sets-and-the-keys-are-identical-and-open-the-locks-out-of-different-packages-Is-this-common/answer/Buster-Ecks?ch=15&oid=249726132&share=9437507b&srid=ErpTX&target_type=answer
My daughter moved to Virginia Beach after she got married. One of her best friends at college lived there and was raised there. We were visiting there and while we were driving on the bypass I asked my daughter if she had seen her lately. She hadn’t so I asked her to see if we could get a dinner set up. Less than a minute later I heard a beep from the car beside our car. It was her friend from college. As icing on the cake when my daughter told her what her new address was it turned out that her friend had lived at the condo next door when she was in high school. It’s a small world.
I live in Virginia Beach. Moved here when I was 12, turning 13 a few weeks later, starting 8th grade a month later... In H.S. as junior and senior, I attended VOTECH. My senior year, a couple of USAF recruiters came to my class to administer the ASVAB to those who wanted to. The whole class did... Anyway. The results come in. The recruiters give out the results... One of the recruiters asked who is "so and so" and "so and so"?... The other student and I looked at each other confused and then we both raised our hands, I asked why.. the recruiter said that we shared a birthday and... So l looked at the other guy and asked where he was from and he said Honolulu To my amazement I asked what hospital and he said Tripler Now I'm outright astonished... Being born in the same hospital on the same day, from the same city to meet, "again" 17 years, from Honolulu to Virginia Beach, the same hospital to the same classroom half way around the world 17 years later.... It is indeed a small world 🌎
@@seanx476My dad and uncle lived together in their early twenties and also worked together for the same company. Unfortunately my uncle was killed in a car accident and his body was badly damaged and burned so the decision was made to have his remains cremated. Three years later, my dad had a girlfriend that decided she no longer wanted to be with him and moved out of his house while he was at work and somehow mistook my uncles urn that held his ashes as something that belonged to her. She had never met my uncle while he was alive so she had no reason for intentionally taking the urn but for whatever reason she did.. This caused serious problems between my dad and the rest of the family as they originally wanted the urn to be given to my grandmother safely at her house but my dad insisted that it stay at his house because that's where my uncle lived when he passed away. Anyways.. fast forward sixteen years and over eight hundred miles away my aunt and grandmother were visiting a local swap meet in a town they had never been to before and just as they had decided to call it a day my grandmother glanced down at a tarp covered in old tools and junk but sitting there amongst the random items was my uncles urn.. his name inscribed beautifully along it's side and with the paper seal still intact it was clear that it had never been opened. With tears in her eyes, my aunt reached down, picked up the urn glanced up and the vendor and said "We're taking this" needless to say.. he didn't protest. My grandmother was nearing the end of her life and finding her son was one of the most meaningful things that ever could have happened. My dad has since passed but it's something we often spoke of and something that I will always cherish and share with anyone who will listen. Thanks for taking the time to read this. Stay Free.
My gpa called and asked if I had seen my cousin, and I said No, not in 10 years. Soon after we bumped into each other in the lobby of the skyscraper where I had worked for 10 years. She said she had worked there 10 years, too! But she was on floor 2, I was on floor 22 - different elevator banks. Turns out we had gotten married on the same day, same year, and our husbands have the same name!
Well damn! Here I thought it was cool that my cousin and I were born 25 days apart. The end. That's all. Just 25 days apart, different states, I didn't even meet him til I was like 15. We did become very close. Still close 30 years later. But u win! That is really cool.
If she’s your cousin then wouldn’t you already have known that? Or your grandpa would? Or not a close family? 🫤 (sorry if that’s the case. Mine isn’t either 🫤)
@@taaurus13 She had stopped keeping in touch and we had "lost" her. My grandpa called me as there hadn't been any Christmas cards, etc, and the last time I saw her was when we had a college class together years before. Sad to say that she has disappeared again. No cards or calls for almost 15 years now. If she left CA she didn't let any of her extended family know! Hopefully she is still married and healthy and happy.
In the late 60's a friend and I attended music camp together. When we arrive we went into the "day room" and saw a high school friend playing a 12-string guitar and singing with several girls. Except it was not our friend but his long lost twin brother. Yes, we got them together.

I was a teacher in England and went on holiday to Chicago. One evening I went to the top floor of the Sears Tower and there was one of my 10 year old pupils with his parents.
We were on holiday in Italy in the late 90s & we bumped into my son's Latin teacher at Pompeii . We returned to Italy in 2016 & went to Rome & bumped into the same Latin teacher in the Vatican city .
I have a similar coincidence…not quite as happy. The young lady I shared a hospital room with when my son was born was named Polly ( don’t remember last name now). She and her lawyer were the case in front of me in a divorce scheduling conference , I was there for the same reason
My parents have a similar story. They met in high school, but found out they were born a day apart, dec 8th and dec 10th, same hospital in Utah. It’s crazy how this universe works!
In 1983 at 8yrs old i put a message in a bottle into the sea near my home in England, 28 years later while on holiday in Brazil while walking on the beach, I found my bottle with my message in it still unopened.
One of the stories talks about not seeing someone for a long time and then having them show up in dreams and then running into them soon after. I had a similar experience. I have a friend that I went to high school with, and we lived in the same neighborhood. I was in my 50's when I had a dream that had my friend in it. When I woke up, I felt I had to attempt to find him. I remember he said at one time that he worked at a marina where we grew up. I drove there and actually found him there. You might say, "well, he works there." Talking with him, he asked how I knew he would be there, because he hadn't worked there for 10 years and was only there because someone needed work on a boat. So, he normally didn't go to the marina. Just happened to be there.
I used to think about or dream about someone I hadn't seen in a long time and within 3 days I would see them. This would happen when I was younger. It doesn't happen anymore. I lost the gift. Lol
In the early 80’s I was in a 4th/5th grade blended classroom in SW Washington state. One day we got a new student, a blond 4th grade boy from Arkansas. Two days later we got another new student, a blond 4th grade boy who looked a lot like the 5th grader, but this one from Kentucky. It was very uncommon for our school to get new students from so far away, let alone within two days of each other… but the real coincidence was that the two boys had met before, in an arcade at one of those big commercial rest areas in some far-off state they both were traveling through to get here, maybe Kansas? They had played some video games, neither knowing the other was also moving to Vancouver, Wa. It’s been more than 40 years and it’s still one of the neatest coincidences of my childhood as those two boys both felt they had a ready-made friend within days.
Has anyone experienced lost time or times when you know u have watched something only to have someone tell you its new and its the first time that its been aired yet you know you've seen it already ...
Yes, I do! You know that in quantum physics it's said the past, present and future are happening at the same time? Sometimes we get a glimpse... mostly in our dreams because then our mind is wide open to catch it.😊❤
@@sabinereimer7809 yes I've heard of this theory before it's one of my favorites, because when you really think about it some weird things happen in this world that are truly unexplainable
A lot. There was a king foo movie in the early 2000’s that I rented and subsequently never watched because I ended up covering shifts for the next couple of days and then I returned it in watched. I went in the next week to rent it and it wasn’t there. The people working said it didn’t become available for rent until the next month. In 1989, I also watched a “Special Presentation” on HBO. I was in high school and was supposed to be in bed and it was early morning, but there was a movie I wanted to watch coming on. lol. This “special presentation” started and I was like this isn’t ‘Big trouble in little China’. Turns out it was “Driving Miss Daisy”. I ended up telling my parents how food it was an my mom didn’t believe me. She said one of her coworkers were going to to see it before they went Christmas shopping and it’s impossible to see it one HBO when it had just opened in the theater. Well, I was pissed so I told her to write down what I was going to say. I told her the premise, the cast and the car. I told her how the maid dies and it was the lady from “Good Times” and about the graveyard scene and Hoke needing to go to the bathroom but he said “make water”. I told her how it ended too. I said you take that to work and ask your friend about it. She did, when she came home she told me I was grounded and to never talk about it again. She had called the cable company and they said it wasn’t showing because it was just opening in the theater, but everything I had said was right.
In 2014, I was assigned in my new job to a town in the Phillipines approximately 1,000 miles from home. I had to drive by a town which I visited 20 years back because my ex-girlfriend lived there. I haven't seen her in ... well... 20 years. Driving the company issued car, memories kept rushing back, my ex-gf and me, dating, spending our youth like forever, snacking under a tree in a park. When the traffic lights went green, I had to drive in slow motion. It felt like my tires were so lazy rolling and there seemed a magnet pulling me back as I leave the town. So I u-turned and decided to relax at a McDonald's. In line for my order, on the other cashier line was my ex-gf who I haven't seen for 2 decades. Our eyes met and locked for 15 seconds. We froze. After we said each other's hello, we sat facing each other. But she had to leave fast as her husband is waiting outside. I didn't know what to feel. Maybe nostalgia, joy, loneliness, rolled into one emotion. Whew...
Oh, you guys! That's so sad. Forgive me, but I think you two were supposed to be together. I guess being young, hurt feelings, time, and distance, did the rest. I'm so sorry.
There is another story that predates the Titanc called How The Mail Steamer Went Down In The Mid Atlantic By A Survivor , written in 1886 by William Stead. He describes what would happen if the larger ships that were being built foundered at sea without enough lifeboats. William Stead died on the Titanic 26 years later.

I loved a book when I was a kid that had Barbie getting married and her wedding dress got lost. It was a chase around town for Barbie and her friends to get the dress back. Fast forward 30-something years later and my cousin is getting married. We had a chase around town to get her dress, which reminded me of that book so I went onto eBay to search for it. I found a copy and bought it to give to my cousin for a nice little memory. Picture my surprise when I opened the book and there was, in my handwriting, my name printed on the inside where I had put it as a young kid. I bought my own book back! It had made its way across the US. Made for a great story at the wedding lol.
I learned how to play the song WipeOut one night and the next day as I was sitting in a bar having a beer and a man sat down on the stool next to me who turned out to be the guy that wrote the song.
Although I highly doubt that anyone will ever read this, I'm gonna put my two cents in here. The number of coincidences between Abraham Lincoln and John F. Kennedy are nothing short of mindblowing...
A pilot flying a semi rare plane had to make an emergency landing do to a broken strut landed in a pasture by a farm where the farmer greeted him after landing. The pilot explained the reason for the emergency landing, and that he broke a strut that he was going to have to have custom made. The farmer had the pilot follow him while he was explaining the situation and the farmer stopped by a large pile of scrap metal and within a couple minutes pulled out the exact part the pilot needed.
@@matthewbrown3857okay? Everyone is leaving their stories (personal stories, stories they were told, stories they watched or read about) in the comments. Your comment comes across as trying to call him out or something bc you heard the same story 50 years ago (sounds that way to me anyway). He never said it was HIS story.
In my early 20's I moved to the west coast of Canada from the east and quickly met my future ex. When I told my best bud back east that I had met "The One" and told him her name, he recognized it from somewhere, called his dad, and called me back freaking out. Turns out, she was his cousin from an estranged aunt who his family had lost contact with years earlier. Small world.
The one with friends in hotel rooms hundreds of miles apart, at the same time finding each others' lost possessions in the drawers in their rooms. That's a weird one.
Around 1990, my employer in North Carolina sent me to New York City for meetings with an associated organization in midtown Manhattan. During a break, I chatted with one of their department heads, and mentioned my retired parents lived on an island on the NC coast. I was explaining where that was when he said "I know - my father was born there," and his parents had moved North in the 1930's for better opportunities. The next day he brought in an old family photo of a child's burial in 1915, in a family plot next to my father's place. The photo contains the only known image of one of my great-grandmothers, who, with several of the others, later took up residence in that plot. I'd heard that you can find anything in NYC... this confirmed it for me.
Now that's a very scary event that has so many paths that could have went many ways.reeves I once read didn't want that part it very well could have been passed on to another actor.i wonder who that was and that actors future....
speaking of…When I was 17, a senior in high school, my teacher asked me to walk a girl to the parking lot to get picked up by her mother because she was getting bullied. I did and off she went. That only happened once. Later that day I went to my job working at a full-service gas station. From time to time, a disabled man (quadriplegic, I would later find out) would drive his van into the full serve lane for gas and occasionally to get air in his wheelchair tires. I would happily fill them to the proper pressure and off he would go. A few months later, I got into an accident that left me quadriplegic, exactly the same injury that he had. after I realized what being a quadriplegic meant, I remembered reading a book on the Vietnam War when I was a sophomore. It wasn't a book about the war, it was about the injury a soldier sustained in battle. He was quadriplegic. About a year later, I moved into my own apartment. One day, sitting by the pool, a man in a wheelchair entered the pool area. It was the very same man that I would help at the gas station. I thought, "well that's certainly ironic." I would see him from time to time and would play chess on occasion. A month or so later, I went out to the pool and he was out there with a young girl. He introduced her as his daughter. I immediately recognized her as the very same, bullied girl that I walked out to the parking lot that day. My mind was blown. I don't think all of this was coincidence. I believe it was "the universe" preparing me for what was to come. It made me believe that I was destined to live the life I'm living, awful as it may be. 38 years later and in bad health, I'm conflicted as to whether I'm supposed to let life run its course to the end or if I'm "allowed" to take matters into my own hands, if you know what I mean. I'd prefer the latter, because I'm really tired and this is getting old. 🙂
We were remodeling our kitchen and I had to go to a town I’ve never been to so I could pick out a countertop. I decided to stop at this little cafe to eat when a handsome man came in and sat next to me at the counter. In 4 grade I had a crush on this boy named Tommy McGee and he had a crush on me so he would write me notes with money for candy taped to it. Throughout my life I had always wondered whatever happened to him. I had never forgotten him. So here I am sitting next to a guy that kind of looks like a scrappy Paul newman, blue eyes tattoos. We made small talk and then I ask him if he’s from around the area, he said he grew up in the same town I lived in and he had gone to the same middle school I went to. So I asked him if he remembered a kid named Tom McGee and his eyes got big and he said he was Tom! He showed me his drivers license. Amazing after 55 years that we happened to walk into a place that neither of us had ever been to. We still keep in touch!
European here. Such things happen all the time. I myself was part of such an enormous coincidence. When I was a young man in the early 90s, I was involved in a band. My best friend (we started school together as 6-year-olds) as lead singer and guitarist and I went on holiday to Portugal together. When we arrived at our destination, we met a group of guys (no one knew about the others' holiday plans) from our hometown who we knew very well. The guys were just talking about our band when we pulled up right there in the band bus. You can imagine the astonishment, 2500 km from home. My best friend was able to top that easily when, a few years later, he and his wife were on holiday in South Africa and "stumbled upon" two good friends on Table Mountain in Cape Town. Again, neither of the two "parties" had the foggiest idea that they were in southern Africa. This time, the distance was a cool 12,000 kilometers... I know of other second-hand cases. On the run from a stressful job in Germany, on holiday in Canada and on the television tower in Montreal, you suddenly find yourself standing in front of your boss. Wth...?
How about the elementary school teacher who was teaching the kids about the canadian geese when a canadian goose flew in to the room through an open window ..or the time a cop in the 1930s saved a man named bill by using a tourniquet on him .and a few years later the cop was in an accident and who showed up to the scene Bill and he used a tourniquet on the cop and saved him
Roberto Clemente did not win the congressional medal of honor. That is a military award. He got the congressional gold medal and was given the medal of freedom by President Bush, which is a medal for civilians.
In 1973, President Richard Nixon posthumously honored Clemente with the Presidential Citizens Medal. That same day, Congress honored Clemente with the Congressional Gold Medal. In 2003, President George W. Bush awarded Clemente the Presidential Medal of Freedom.
There are eight civilian recipients of the Congressional Medal of Honor. Roberto Clemente wasn't one of them however. From the Civil War William H. Woodall (a civilian scout), John H. Ferrell (a civilian river pilot), Martin Freeman (a civilian harbor pilot) and Mary Edwards Walker (a civilian surgeon) were honored. From the Indian Wars William Cody, Amos Chapman, Billy Dixon, James B. Dozier were all awarded the decoration for their actions as civilian scouts.
@@FionaOfMountLawley In 1917, based on the report of the Medal of Honor Review Board, established by Congress in 1916, 911 recipients were stricken from the Army's Medal of Honor list because the medal had been awarded inappropriately. Among them were William Frederick "Buffalo Bill" Cody and Mary Edwards Walker
In 2011, I worked at one of those sketchy quick oil change places in northern Alberta, Canada. The shop manager was brutal, verbally degrading, and publicly humiliated me on a daily basis. He tried over a dozen times to get me fired, but the owners always overruled him. Last year, I ran into him downtown, and he was homeless, and severely addicted to something. I was fortunate enough to buy him dinner, some clean clothes, and drive him to a men's shelter. I forgot to mention to him what a wanker he was to me years ago. I'm not sure if he even recognized me.
I was a photographer at a rap show in Atlanta and took pictures of an unknown rap group from the county. During editing I saw this guy in the photos that I’d met that night and thought was the most GORGEOUS man I’d ever seen. I asked around about him to see if anyone knew his name or when they would be preforming again. I had to see him. I never got his name and never saw him at another show. A year later I was in solitary confinement in a county jail and a very very cute guy with a shaved head brought my meals every day. He started putting letters wrapped in plastic in my food to talk to me. It was wild trying to communicate like that since we weren’t permitted to speak to one another. About a month into the stay I was handcuffed and led to the sally port going to court. In case I got released he put his ID bracelet in my uniform pocket to be able to remember his name and ID number and kissed me right there behind the guards backs. When I got to look at the bracelet my whole face fell off, in the photo he had long, longer than shoulder length dark hair and I recognized it was the guy from the photos at the rap show. In jail he had a shaved head. My powers of manifestation really truly brought us together in the worst way. Three years later, a year after he got out of prison we got married… smh life is wild…
Several years ago, a few coworkers and I were discussing our favorite scary movies. One person brought up the Amityville Horror, a movie I had never seen but had vague recollections hearing about as a kid. He described it as a haunted house movie and said it was based on a true story. Intrigued, I decided to do research about it during my upcoming break. I learned it had to do with the real-life family member murders of Ronald DeFeo, Jr. who killed six members of his family on November 13, 1974. When I read that date, I was shocked. I looked at the clock on my computer and it was a few seconds after midnight and the date on my computer said "11/13/2004". Out of the blue, I had sought out information on the DeFeo murders on the 30th anniversary of their occurrence!
Interesting, but not logic defying odds, really. I mean, there's only one 30th anniversary of any given date, but there is one anniversary of any given date each year and the odds of it being day x are 1:365 (okay, 1:366 for leap years). If the odds of winning the lottery were 1 in 365 I would buy lotto tickets.
@@TanyaWest-fh8iz Yeah, but most anniversaries don't commemorate the most evil of occurrences...a person murdering all of the members of his family, and I happened to read about it a few seconds after midnight in an empty, darkened break room. That added a great deal of creepiness to an already horrifying story. I found the whole ordeal to be a memorably odd coincidence.
I was born and lived in England as a child then we moved to Canada. 40 years later, I'm making a call to a client and the client had a English accent. She proceeds to tell me her name and then i asked her if she had a brother named Michael and did she live on Newfield. It was my next door neighbour from my childhood!
@@curtis4109 Those who care about truth, facts & want others not to be ignorant fools. It's irrelevant whether someone watches The Simpsons or not because many people will still see videos like this and assume the Simpsons have some magical ability to predict the future. What The Simpsons have predicted is in no way outside of what random chance would allow. But people who don't understand statistics or look at how many times a Simpsons have made a prediction that was wrong tend to go on believing in falsities.
I'm from Kansas City, but moved to a tiny little town in coastal Southern Oregon with my first wife in the late 80's. We were young and my wife and I split, so I moved back home to KC. Several years later, I had remarried, and was taking my family on a vacation to Vail, Colorado. We stopped in a Walmart in Denver, and I saw a guy putting stuff in the trunk of his car with Oregon license plates. I casually asked, "Where are you from in Oregon?" He replied "A town on the southern coast." "Oh yeah?" I said, "I used to live on the southern coast. What town?" "Gold Beach", he replied. "That's where I lived, too! Do you happen to know a guy named Joe Birt?" He stopped loading stuff, looked at me and said "Yeah, that's my best friend." I replied "He was my best friend when I lived there, too."
In the early 70's I was stationed in the 296th Army band in Japan. One night several of us were drinking in the barracks (it was the era of the military easing up many rules.) At one point Dan Fonstad, picked up his trombone and played taps. When he finished the lights went out in the building. We all had a huge laugh thinking someone else in the building -- hearing taps -- turned the lights off. However, when we looked outside the base was dark, the lights were out for the entire camp. A thunderstorm miles away struck a power station plunging the base into darkness exactly when Dan finished taps..
@greendeane1 wow coincidences galore from "band camp" to Japan during Vietnam listening to a guy on a trombone, not a bugle, not a trumpet, a trombone! How lucky can YOU get! I wonder, Taps on Tuba?
I have had this happen also. I'm 53, and it's happened around 15 times or so, so far. I remember the first time, I was maby 5 or 6 years old. The last I remember was a few years ago. It's always a small amount of time and very short. I would like to figure out how to do it intentionally. But how does this happen? It's remarkable and needs figured out.
@@genniferhorn6062really? I have it quite frequently. If I start tracking where it happens, do I avoid that area going forward or spend more time in the area?
In 1983 I was driving from Ohio to Rochester New York. On the New York through way I happened to look over at the car driving next to me. The driver was a coworker in Ohio. We both started laughing and gave each other a wave.
Before I met and married my wife, I worked next to her factory for over a year. Often after work I hung out with one of my buddies who turns out lived right next to her in a quadplex. When she moved out of there she moved into the apartment that I just moved out of. Then we ended up working at the same factory, over 40 years ago. Still together, still madly in love with her .
When I was in my 20's I left California for Arkansas and met some Rainbow hippies that lived in a broken down bus in the woods. Rainbows are travelers and tend to attract other travelers and one night I visited the bus and met a couple that were from Connecticut. From the exact small town my mother's sister lived in they had gone to jr high/ high school with my cousin. We were all 1500 miles from our homes at a random location in the woods. My friend said his driveway is connected to the universe, you never know whos gonna show up.
In the early stagee of being treated for cancer, I had to find my own way there by taxi before the hospital could arrange travel...I had no money and it would cost me at least 15€ ... I had to go to the store before getting the taxi and as I crossed the road to get there, still thinking where to get the extra money...this wind lifted up and as I looked in that direction of the wind, amongst the leaves, blowing towards me...I could see some money. As I bent down, I discovered 15€...exactly the amount I needed!
I recommend that people read the book Time Loops by Eric Wargo. Precognition is absolutely real. He explains potential mechanisms and gives more explanation to these and other examples including with Jung and Freud but also citing recent studies in quantum physics, quantum biology and predictive processing. Honestly this book was a game changer for me as I have had precognitive dreams and knowing and was skeptical about how it worked.
I looked on Kindle, it's $9.99. I have a free Audible credit rolling around, though, so I'll check it out. Thanks so much for the recommendation. It looks very interesting.
@@starkiller1782 there are people who believe if you talk about it you will take away the power it has. So I hear you. Be grateful for what you have right now and don’t put these thoughts of the dreams in the forefront at all. Be here now. Also read the book Time Loops. It brought me some comfort.
Here’s one from my life: Living in Oakland California one day my girlfriend was over and we were just chilling in my bedroom. For some reason she was jumping on my bed goofing around. She was chanting “earthquake, earthquake” trying to bounce me. I was annoyed that she was wrecking my bed and so I asked her to stop it. She kept it up and asked me why? I said if you keep it up you’re gonna cause an earthquake. I was new to California and was fearful. SURE ENOUGH moments later there was an earthquake! My roommate can back me up on this, but I lost touch with that girlfriend. This is what I’ve termed “synchronicity,”and it wasn’t the only instance, but it was the most significant and disturbing incident.
i took a month off work and planned to visit a friend who worked about 5 hours away. when i got there i ended up spending 3 weeks working on a sheep farm when i returned to work my boss asked me about moonlighting i thought how the hell could he know. he then showed me a Polaroid of me in front of similar machines that we worked on even i thought it was me. until i noticed he was wearing a gold plated watch and watch band. i said my watch is silver that wasn't the end of it. i was at a nite club and was getting close and personal with a girl and suddenly 2 women i didn't know said why aren't you home with your wife and new born instead of cheating.. they refused to believe i wasn't this other person until i showed them my driver's licence I've never seen this person face to face
You should have a couple more coincidents added. First a now married couple in the United States was both at Disney land separately with their own parents and siblings when they discovered that in pictures as children the couple were pictured together, only without knowing until they were married. Exactly like the Asian couple you showed, only this couple was from the u.s. and pictured as small children. Second, that three times ship wrecks have happened, in the 1600s, 1700s, and 1800s, about 80 years apart, each time only one person survived. The person's name was Hugh Williams. They were no related, but still had the same name, and were sole survivors.
A loving creator is the one who is responsible for the amazing natural happenings. No coincidence. I am a biology teacher and am in constant awe of how God created us, the animals, and nature. So complex, and no way for us to recreate it!
I photograph cemeteries and saw a monument I was fascinated by. James Allen McPherson he was an author and taught at the writer's workshop. Not two weeks later my friend asked me to meet her at the bar. She was talking to a guy and I was looking at my phone, when I heard him say, that he was Jim McPherson's class. When I pulled up the photos I had taken he was gobsmacked. He told me some great stories and passed along writing advice to me that JAM had given him. I have goosebumps just remembering the situation. I truly feel like I got advice for the beyond.
1:00:34 Maybe I'm the first one to actually get this far in the video, or maybe nobody noticed, but is it really necessary to pixelate the fictional baby's face? Is TH-cam THAT friggen strict nowadays? Or are creators just being overly cautious to stay on the safe side? God, I miss the good old days of the internet. Peak freedom was when broadband internet became widely available and decentralized. It was so easy to Google what you were looking for. There was a time when you could actually find whatever random stuff you'd search for on Google.
My partner and I were both born on EXACTLY the same day, when we met we learned that I live next to his best friend and he had visited often there and we never met. We also learned that we have lived the entirety of our lives right next to each other, but somehow we never met until the day we did, coincidentally the exactly right time given our pasts.
My parents are both born on November 19th, I was due on November 19th there was a write up in the paper, I came a week late on the 26th then 17 years later my youngest brother came on November 29th
Back in the 90's my family went on a weekend camping trip, couple hours drive down the TransCanada. The only time my dad ever ran out of gas. Left me, my mom, sister and a cousin at the side of the road with the Oldsmobile on the shoulder while he walked back to a gas station we passed many kms back. We took this opportunity for a bathroom break, those being shy about their business walked deep into the woods off to the side. My cousin had this "bad feeling" and refused to go anywhere. Because we spent so much time waiting we knew the spot well, (there were a few telltale landmarks). Dad returns with a gas can, fills the tank, car starts just fine, and we go camping. After the weekend we're driving back and pass the exact spot only this time there are police and emergency crew everywhere and the entrance to woods was taped off like a crime scene. It would be a while before we found out on the news of a killer who finally led police to the bodies he left in those woods. To this day my dad insists he had enough gas when we left. The whole thing was one big freaky coincidence.
The Titanic . Could it be that the novel gave JP Morgan and the rest of the Federal Reserve maniacs an idea of how to remove all opposition to their insane plan . Because that's what happened .
A few months ago, I was coming home from a medical appointment, and passed the last major shopping center before the turn into my neighborhood. Something in my brain yelled, “Cat litter! You need cat litter! They’ll hate you if you don’t change the cat litter!” So I pulled into the shopping plaza, and as I was searching for a parking spot, it occurred to me why it felt familiar: I had been here two days before, picking up cat litter-I just hadn’t taken it out of the trunk. I took another thoughtful lap or two, deciding whether I needed anything else from the Walmart, or some fast food from one of the franchises. Nope! So having wasted about six minutes of the early Nashville rush hour, I pulled back into traffic, disgusted to find that slow but flowing traffic had come to a near halt. I sat and inched while sirens swirled closer, and as I was waved around by an early first responder, saw that the wreck - a commercial van had t-boned a compact car, like my own - was in the lane and within a car length of where I would have made my turn. I certainly will never know whether that little car would have been me … but I am grateful my brain found a way to get me off the road.
Those who have studied mathematics, and many different fields of science can tell you that there are numerous coincidences that can occur in seemingly impossible circumstances. The human need for finding meaning in an otherwise random and meaningless universe can make these coincidences feel like the product of fate or some kind of cosmic influence. The fact that our existence is so random and completely out of our control is frightening to many people. The need for meaning in a meaningless universe leaves us feeling so inconsequential and small.. I think that is even more of a reason to cherish the miracle of our existence.
This commenter, in discussing randomness with wife of friend, remembers her saying "I believe in randomness" (as opposed to Karma, cause & effect etc). This to myself, an individual who several times has texted comment: "There's a Reason it's called LAW of Karma".
My sister was in the delivery room in 1975-the gal in the labor room suddenly needed to deliver her baby, so my sis was wheeled out. Baby #2 was delivered but mistakenly named "Coen", not "Strenke". 45 minutes later the error was corrected. We even gave the baby and momma a ride home later that week. 7 years later I fell in love- at first sight - with the uncle of baby #2. I am now Aunt to both girls! Weird.
dude the watch you can talk into is not a prediction of the smart watch. if anything it's a reference to the pulp comics detective Dick Tracy from 1931 and the movie from 1990 in which he uses a watch radio.
I had 2 incidents so far in my life while driving that were absolutely uncanny. The first is I was up late and had a craving for something but didn't know what I wanted so i head out to the store. I was driving along (I may have been doing 5 over the speed limit) and I suddenly had an overwhelming feeling to slow down. I slowed to the actual speed limit. Not much farther up there road a car ran a stop sign to my left which ended at a T with my road and he crashed into a telephone pole. I stopped and rushed to see if he was ok. The roads were slick from rain and heavy fog. Just as I got to his door a cop car comes to a screeching halt and I realize with horror that this man was running from police. I run back to my car and get to the store and just sobbed. If I hadn't slowed down he would've hit me. I was lucky he didn't have a weapon. The second time was I was in my tiny 2002 Kia Rio with 3 friends and we were driving along a main road that have many cross streets that have stop signs but we had the right of way. That same feeling from the previous incident came over me again and so I slowed down. Minutes later a huge black pickup truck barrels through the stop sign to my right and just missed hitting us. Everyone in my car went silent for several minutes. Then everyone started freaking out. I told them of my previous experience and all our minds were blown simultaneously.
My wife, son and I were at an intersection, when a man on a motorcycle was making a turn towards us. My wife mentioned it was my doppelganger, which was really quite accurate. Looked just like me. I was scrolling through tiktok one day and a video came up that showed a man roller skating. It looked just like me, my first thought was who posted a video of me roller skating, second thought was when did i go roller skating. Upon looking at the user who posted it, it was my ex-wife. The man on the motorcycle and in the video same man, her new husband. He looks just like me, kinda creepy i think.
My parents separated for a while and started seeing other people. I was stunned when I met the woman my Dad was seeing. She was a doppelgänger of my mother.

Back in the 1980’s I was stationed at Kirkland AF Base and met a man in my squadron who had the same birthday. It turns out he was born in Albuquerque at about 8:15 and I was born in Oregon at about 7:15. So I was working with someone who had been born at the same time, day, month and year (because of the time difference between mountain and pacific time zones. Hope you’re doing well Ron.
I met my best friend 30 years ago,we both from the same city but his family were from Cyprus and my family were British. Fast forward 6 years I met my future husband who grew up in another city but his family were also from Cyprus and I introduced my friend and husband. Cyprus isn’t a very big Island but has 1 million inhabitants but they stated discussing the village their families were from and coincidentally it was the same village, it didn’t end there, their grandparents were next door neighbours and their parents and siblings all grew up together…..my husband had a brother who died Dec 8th 1978 at 8 years old, my friend was born the next day.
Statistically, there is a good chance that this could have happened. So really, that isn't that impressive. But holy fuck that man must be a nervous wreck after all that.
Considering how wrong the first one on the Titan is _(it said the Titanic measured 280 feet long, it was 880 feet long)_ like the fact that the number of lifeboats had nothing to do with how many people died on the Titan _(it sank in about five minutes, they only had the time to evacuate 17 people compared to sinking over several hours and having 700+ people surviving the Titanic),_ I imagine most of these are very poorly researched and overly sensationalized.

I’ve have 4 coincidences….First one happened when I was 16. My small school was having a huge field day at the recreation center. I had on 10 kt. gold earrings and walked all over the place and suddenly my friend noticed I was missing one of my earrings. It was getting close to the time to leave. I told her that I need to retrace all the places that we went to. I looked and looked and of course I couldn’t find it. So, as we were headed back to the buses I stopped dead in my tracks and looked down and right in front of my foot was my earring which happened to be closer to the entrance of the recreation center. The second one was when I was 29 my husband was out at sea for a six month cruise he flew on E-2 airplanes and it was our son’s 9th. birthday. I had decided not to let him go to school that day and took him to the mall to get lunch and to shop around to buy him a couple of gifts to make his day feel special. After a day of fun we were headed home and out of the blue I said to him…Can you imagine if one of those planes went down at sea? I don’t know why that thought had even crossed my mind. It’s not like I was even thinking about it. Then when we got in the door the phone rang and the lady on the phone introduced herself and said, before I say anything else I just wanted to let you to know your husband is alright. I thought she was going to say that he broke his arm or something else but, she said, I wanted to let you know that one of the planes crashed into the water and that more information would be coming to let me know who was on the plane and that she couldn’t say at that moment who it was until she made calls to the other wives whose husbands were ok in that squadron and hours went by and I got the call. I couldn’t believe my ears. I just cried and cried. The third one was when I was 34 I needed to go to the grocery store and I happened to look out my big kitchen window and saw a tall skinny pine tree that looked awful. I told my 2 kids that when their father got home I was going to ask him to cut it down. When we got back from the grocery store I started putting the items away and glanced out of the window and saw that the tree was down on the ground roots and all. The fourth one was when I was around 46 and I went to the grocery store by myself, and after being there awhile I stopped in front of the frosted blueberry Pop tarts which my daughter loved so I decided to call her and ask her if she wanted anymore and as I was waiting for the phone to ring it didn’t, it was quiet then I happened to see my daughters name on my phone and I said, Hello? and she said, Mom? We had called each other at the exact same time. So I asked why she was calling me and she asked me if I could get her a box of frosted blueberry Pop tarts. I couldn’t believe it. Today, March 26, 2023, marks 30 years since a tragedy in the Naval Aviation and the E-2C Hawkeye community occurred with the loss of Bear Ace 603 (from VAW-124) in the Adriatic Sea, with the loss of all 5 aircrew.

One time I was driving the last leg of my 2 hour commute home. While waiting to make a turn I thought of a girl I grew up with, LF. I hadn’t seen her in over thirty years… which is odd given that my town is lovingly called Smalltimore. Exhaustedwhen I arrived home, I almost bailed on a plan to attend $1 crab night with my auntie. I went. We sat outside because we were a little late (I was dragging) and the dining room was full. I went inside to the restroom. When I returned, a party was seated at the next table. Once I settled in, I looked up and realized that the woman directly facing me looked like a 43 yo LR. It was her…literally 2 yards in front of me…less than 2 hrs after I thought of her for the 1st time in 30 plus years. I’ll never forget it.

You missed the 'doppelganger' coincidences of King Umberto of Italy. They were born the same day in the same town, married women with the same name, named their sons the same name, one opened a restaurant the same day the other became King and the day after they met, both were killed (one in a gun accident and the other assassinated.)
I use to work at a boutique in North Jersey. On lunch break I would share my lunch with a homeless man that always spent time on a bench near the boutique. He was very polite and was down on his luck. This went on for about a year then I had to move away. I moved to another town in South Jersey near Wildwood. I was on lunch break one day and ran to wawa to grab a sub and a few other items. When I went to pay I realized I left my wallet in my other purse. I was so embarrassed so I apologized the the girl at the counter and left. Less than a minute later I heard some one call out “young lady,” I looked back and the man behind me had paid for my lunch and was bringing it out to me. When we were face to face we both recognized each other. It was the homeless man. We both were wide eyed and so thrilled. I gave him a hug and this was years later. He had gotten a job and was doing really well. He told me he’s always been generous with people because of what I did for him. I will never forget him and our story. Life is full of surprises. His name is Robert. I hope he’s doing alright.

Many years ago, I was dropping a movie off at Blockbuster video when i locked my keys in the car. While unsuccessfully attempting to use a coathanger to open the door, I said loudly, "Where's a professional car thief when you need one?" A car had just parked next to me, and the driver said, "right here." Turns out, he was a repoman! We were married a year and a half later. He unlocked my car and stole my heart. ❤

My partner grew up pretty poor and worked at the mall McDonald's as a teenager. It was the early 2000’s and North Face fleeces were all the rage. He found a jacket in the mall lost and found that looked similar to one and wore it throughout highschool. 15ish years later we met and when he learned my last name he was shocked because it was my dad’s company’s jacket he had worn all those years ago. He wore my last name across his heart years before we had met.

I had been 18yr for about 5 months. I lived in eastern Washington and had a opportunity to go snow skiing at Jackson hole Wyoming. Long story short my ride had Fallin threw. So without thinking it through I decided to hitchhike. Keep in mind I had skis on my shoulder. The first car that stopped were 2 college age girls headed home for Xmas. And they would be driving through Jackson hole. After skiing my buddies family had to leave the condo (rich friend let me stay with them at a condo. They were going to Montana to see family). My friends mom gave me enough $ for a bus ticket home, but her son convinced me( while out drinking ) that he would pay me back if we spent the money. Well that fell through and they left. So I headed out to hitchhike home. The snowbanks from the plows were so high that I didn't think the drivers could see me. It began getting dark and I was honestly scared. Wyoming is vast and absent of people. I decided I would ditch my skis ($300 was a lot of money back then). As I headed down the snow bank to throw away my skis I heard a cars horn. It was the same 2 college age women headed home. I have often thought back on that fateful evening and today believe those 2 women were angels. I was so naive to the world. I believe it was 8 degrees outside when they picked me up. Not a winter goes by that I don't think of the 2 girls who picked up a stranger with snow skis hitchhiking. As I write this I just want to say thank you! I was a young 18 and they were early 20s. I don't know if I would be here today without them. I never saw them again. But I never have forgotten them. They were the first people I remember saying "pay it forward". I have paid it forward lady's. Thank u again

God bless you. You must have a special calling for our father
One year, I went to Girl Scout camp about 2 hours away from home. That night, I had a nightmare that my daddy had passed while I was away and I didn’t get to hug him bye. I awoke right after, so upset that I gave myself a fever and my leader had to call my parents to come and get me in the middle of the night. My mother was so angry, but Dad just held me and said it was ok because he’d missed me too. That was early Sunday morning. The next day, Mom went to work while Dad was still sleeping. I went to check on him when he wasn’t up by 10am. He wouldn’t wake up. I called Mom and she called an ambulance. They took him to the hospital and he passed about 4 weeks later. Never came back home. But if I’d not gone home that Sunday, I’d have never been able to hug him again because he was in ICU the whole time after I’d found him unconscious.

I was looking for names for a story and used a phone book by closing my eyes and pointing to get random names.
I pointed to the name Cyrus Parastar and thought to myself 'There is no way that name could be natural ' Within the week i went to my credit union and was talking to a lady that worked there and i brought up that name and how unique it was.
She started laughing, 'Thats my husband '!

WOW! 😊
I have gotten names for a story the same way before. I grew up in a rural area, where everyone near me was related some way, on my dad’s side. Our phone book was tiny. So small you could roll it up and stick it in a pocket. One time trying to find a name, I decided to randomly open the book and pick the name of the first person I saw who was not related to me. I found one with an odd last name. Turned out it was a relative on my mom’s side. Most of her family live at the other end of our state and the few left in our area lived a county over and I had never met any of them.
Once driving home in the pouring rain after a terrible day at work, with a migraine and horrible menstrual cramps, I experienced a miracle. I was less than a mile from home and I caught a red light. When it turned green, I pressed the gas but my car stalled. I cursed, not wanting to get out into the torrential downpour and deal with whatever the problem might be. I put the car in park and turned the key. As the engine immediately fired up, a car came blazing through the intersection going around 80 mph. I would have been directly in its path if my car hadn't stalled. Shaking I thanked God and proceeded home, my car never stalled again.
This was the work of your guardian angel!😊❤
@@OneOfUsHere An old friend had a similar experience. He was driving down a country lane, and the engine suddenly cut out, he lost speed, and then the engine fired up again. A few seconds later a car in the other lane briefly lost control, skidded onto my friend's side of the road, then regained control. If his engine hadn't cut out for those few seconds it would have been a head on collision

My husband's good friend G moved out of state and for several years they only communicated by phone. Every now and then G asked my husband to come visit, but he was always busy with work which made that difficult. One day my husband decided that he was going to carve out time to visit and booked a flight for a couple days later. He had an awesome week in Florida with G and his wife fishing, beaching, relaxing, golfing, and antiquing. The day after my husband got back home G's wife called in hysterics letting him know that G died from a widowmaker heart attack. G wasn't super young but was a very active, fit, and healthy guy. He had recently got a clean bill of health at a regular checkup. We were all SO grateful that my husband felt pulled to make time for that trip to have one last hurrah with his good buddy. ❤

In 1971 I was on a US destroyer in the Mediterranean doing surveillance on the Soviet fleet. One day, a Russian Cruiser got kinda aggressive in their shiphandling, we were standing on the main deck in the chow line, somebody said oh shit! I looked behind me, there was this Cruiser headed right towards us, they cam within a meter or less. On the Cruiser, there was a line of Russian sailors doing the same as us, waiting for chow! I could see that we all were (in a manner of speaking) in the same boat! 😊
Years later, I'm an engineer on merchant ships, had a junior engineer that was from Ukraine originally. We're talking and he tells me that the first time he saw an American was when he was on a Russian Cruiser and they just about rammed an American destroyer! I asked when was that? 1971! Yup! He was one of those Russian sailors I saw...

My grandmother had been ill and was in the hospital in her early 80s, I went to visit and was told that she was doing much better and would be coming home soon, great news! But when the other relatives left the room and we were alone, I had this sudden feeling and said to her "youre not getting out of here without saying goodbye to me" which seems so odd and out of character for me, I looked deep into her eyes and we hugged and said good bye- a few days later the phone call came that she had passed. 30 years ago and I miss her still!
I'm so glad you took your opportunity to really say goodbye to her ❤
I completely understand when you say that you still miss her, even though a lot of time has passed.

I was married and in the Marine Corps. My husband and I were stationed in Iwakini, Japan. There was a really good Japanese restaurant right off base we frequented and got to know the owners, a retired Marine and a Japanese national. I was pregnant and always starving so we ate there about 3 times a week for a year straight. Fast forward 5 years later, we are stationed in South Carolina and I just had to try the new Japanese restaurant that just opened up down the street from our house. Walked in and the owners were, you guessed it, that same couple! And the food was still just as amazing.
Did they remember you?

I worked in London in a 1-year internship program at Citi. The end of my term overlapped with this guy from South Carolina who was just starting his internship. A year later I was in NY and bought a postcard to send back to my old team at Citi. When I turned around from the blue mailbox the guy from South Carolina was standing behind me. He was mailing a postcard back to the team at Citi.
I read this in a local newspaper. A recent high school grad lost her engraved class ring while swimming in Lake Michigan. Months later she was eating in a roadside diner when a patron walked in and gave the waitress a class ring he just found in the parking lot. It was, of course, her class ring. The theory was that the gravel, including her ring, in the parking lot had been drudged from her swimming spot on the Lake and spread on the diner parking lot-- and found when she was inside eating.
She should go to Las Vegas

I went for a foot xray at the walk in medical centre. Everyone with an appointment was taken to sit in a small corridor. My phone received a text and made a loud notification noise. So I apologised to the guy sitting next to me about the noise of my phone. I asked if he had travelled far to get here and he said a place a couple of miles near where I lived. I told him I lived at Westerhope and he said oh I used to live there in the 1980s. Then he said my street name and I said that is where I am. We both said number 21 at the same time and laughed. This was in 2009. He asked if the dark wood kitchen was still there as he had built it himself. It was so bizarre to think He had been a previous owner of that house all those years ago.

I was in a drama class in high school back in the 90’s,. We were having a competition between 20+ schools. After everyone was finished, were all waiting to hear the results of our competition. I heard some one call my last name, I found it odd because I was sitting with everyone that knew me, I turned to see who was calling me, and way in the back of the auditorium, I seen a guy not looking my way, but called my last name again, I yelled what did he need, not recognizing him, he looked at me, and said I wasn’t talking to you, I was talking to Brian Darga, and he pointed to another guy. The guy he was pointing at stood up and I asked him what his name was? He said Brian Darga! I walked over to him, pulled out my drivers license and told him that was my name too! It turned out he was a cousin I had never met before. Even crazier, he had two older brothers, 4 and 5 years older than he was, with the same names as my two older brothers that are both 4 and 5 years older than I am!

My little cousin and i once went to a barbershop around the corner from where i lived at random one day back in the early 90s. There was a news story on the tv about Mardi Gras. The two barbers started talking about "going home" to NOLA for Mardi Gras. I asked the barber cutting my hair if that is where he was from and he said yes. I told him that is where my grandmother was from. He asked me what her last name was and i told him. Its a french name. He said it a few times and said he didn't recognize the name but said he knew some folks but with a similar sounding name. Knowing how southern people spoke and with their accents (and mispronunciations of names), i asked him what their first names were. He began naming my grandmothers older brothers and sisters! I stopped him and named the rest of them. He said "yes, thats them". I told him who my grandmother was and he told me that he came out to los angeles back in 1942 on the train with my grandmother, her first husband and her best friend! Turned out he was best friends with my grandmothers older brother and their families knew each other since elementary school. My grandmother had been deceased for about 6 years at that point so i called her older sister who was well into her 70s and she remembered this man. Tripped me out!

I have been a genealogist all of my adult life. When I was engaged, I traced my fiance's family tree to Alabama. I found records if his g-g-g-grandfather's grave in a little remote town that was not even on the map (no internet then) We made a trip to Montgomery to check the archives for old maps with hopes of finding the location. We found the general vicinity and there were two cemeteries. We stopped at the larger one and found his grave! What a find and good luck, however that was really nothing compared to what else found. Right next to him was his wife, which was my g-g-g-grandmother's-+ grave! I had been looking for her for a really long time and had almost given up on her.
So are you related to your fiance? What's the rest of this story? Did you break up? Are you still together?
Now that is a great story! Genealogy is full of surprises and coincidences. I love it.
@@daydream_believerThat was my first thought, that they were related (4th cousins). But the more likely answer is their plots were next to each other... No relation.
@@adamhunsaker9982she said her ggg grandma was his ggg grandpas wife. So, not just buried next to him. But that doesn’t 100% mean they are related - they could have been second spouses.
@@daydream_believerhopefully they are still together. They wouldn’t be close cousins - so not illegal. And I would think they are far enough down the line where it’s safe to have kids (which is the only reason close relatives are illegal anyway). Hopefully they’re still together & it’s a good story to pass down.
One Sunday after the church service, we had put both babies in the double stroller and getting ready to walk home, someone asked us if we would like a lift home. We thanked them but refused as it was more hassle to get the children out of the stroller, collapse it, put the children in the car etc etc than it would be to make the short walk home. On the way out of the hall someone else stopped us and offered a lift. On the way out of the front doors yet another person stopped us to offer. My husband and I commented to each other it was weird ... no one ever offered us a lift home (probably because it was such a short walk).
So we set off down the road, and just ahead of us a car lost control and mounted the pavement. If those three people hadn't stopped us to offer a lift, we'd have been right there on the pavement, and we'd have all been killed.
Those 3 people had intuition about the situation
God had sent them to stop you....Praise the Lord 🙏
When the universe pushes me off course like that 3 times in a row, I take the hint and follow wherever it leads. Sometimes, good things come of it and sometimes nothing comes of it and I wonder what bad thing I might have avoided.

While we're catching up and the guy mentioned his daughter was working on a PhD in my desired field. My dad said that I had wanted to be in the same field. The friend told my dad what school his daughter went to. I looked up the school a few days later and it fit what I wanted. I now have my degree from there. I stayed in the area and built a life here.

I visited my mother at her house before I got a plane to Morocco in the late 2009. On that day I had a short chat and drink of tea whilst in the background I heard the sound of a lawnmower in the front garden . One week later I was on a tour on a bus , we got off and had a stretch , we decided to go to a nearby cafe , my partner went to the toilet whilst I sat and got into the shade . Suddenly behind me a man said “ are you Linda’s son ?” I looked round there was a man that looked familiar , but i was struggling to place him . He had a West Midlands accent . He stood up stretched out his hand and said “ tell your mum I’ll Finnish the back garden next week!” Smiled and said I’ve got to go back to the bus now I was astonished to realise this man was the gardener who had been mowing the lawn the day I left the Uk at my mums house . I was in total shock as when my girlfriend came back from the toilet he’d already gone . I said what I experienced and she simply didn’t believe me , but I swear this definitely happened . .
When my daughter was born I was in the waiting room at the hospital with another man whose wife was also having a baby. The babies, both girls, were born at pretty much the same time. I didn’t know the man, had never seen him before. Six months later we’re having our daughter baptised in a Catholic Church that was the local church to the area where we had recently moved. The priest said there would be another baptism at the same time. When we got there, you’ve guessed it, I recognised the father as the very same man who had been in the waiting room with me.
If the babies were switched at birth, that would be awesome.
Yup, that's a coincidence, although the similar faith may have played a role... (go to similar churches, its just a question of time.)

The comments are amazing but the video was too!!!:)
I met a girl and we got together. We lived in different houses but the same city. One day, she was driving my car and got home to her house but didn't have a key to her house because she had my keys. For whatever reason, she decided to use my key to open her door to her home and lo and behold my house key opened her door to her house. Also, it turns out her house key opens my door with neither being hard to put into the door or hard to turn. It's a perfect match. We're also married now.
That's actually about a 1 in 30 chance if the locks used the same stock key, and even better odds if the factory isn't truly randomizing them. Car makers used to be seriously bad about only using a handful of combinations. Until the 1980s it was pretty common to have one key fit 20% of cars with the same model. My aunt once accidentally stole a car identical to hers. She's bought it new only a few months before and got into someone else's when leaving a shopping mall. She didn't know it until she was stopped for driving a stolen care a few days later and when finding out where it was stolen from and when they put tho pieces together and they found her car still where she'd left it.
Wow that's pretty wild!
Not trying to take away from this sweet story, I know how near & dear they are. So as a warning, if this is YOUR sweet story, you may find the rest of this comment disappointing, please don't shoot the messenger. It is still a necessary psa, imo, and that's why I decided to share.
I'm surprised that it is not more widely known that it is not uncommon for keys to work in multiple locks- the reasons why are explained well in this Quora post-
Reposted from Quora (link below):
"Answer to I purchased two of the same door lock sets and the keys are identical and open the locks out of different packages. Is this common? by Buster Ecks
Yes, surprisingly common. When it comes to the production and manufacturing of locks, each manufacturer typically uses a handful of “like” keys. So it’s not at all uncommon or surprising that if you and 15 other people buy the same brand lockset that 2 or 3 of you will have the same key and can unlock each other’s doors.
Why? Easier quality control and replacements. It’s far easier to make and keep paired 1 of 5 keys that work in a lock than to do the same for hundreds keys.
It’s with this in mind that you’d want to hire a locksmith to re-key your locks thus giving you a far more unique lock that no longer works with the default keys.
It’s at this point that many people say “I spent $20 on a lock, why would I spend another $50 to have someone re-key each?!” My response: security for the most expensive item you own and housing for other pricey items.
To be fair, each manufacturer and even product line is going to have a few unique keys. So don’t expect to obtain 5 different Kwikset keys and expect one to work on a Defiant lock. But in the end, it’s worth noting the old proverb that locks are for honest people."

My daughter moved to Virginia Beach after she got married. One of her best friends at college lived there and was raised there. We were visiting there and while we were driving on the bypass I asked my daughter if she had seen her lately. She hadn’t so I asked her to see if we could get a dinner set up. Less than a minute later I heard a beep from the car beside our car. It was her friend from college. As icing on the cake when my daughter told her what her new address was it turned out that her friend had lived at the condo next door when she was in high school. It’s a small world.
It's not a small world....is called synchonicity
I live in Virginia Beach. Moved here when I was 12, turning 13 a few weeks later, starting 8th grade a month later... In H.S. as junior and senior, I attended VOTECH. My senior year, a couple of USAF recruiters came to my class to administer the ASVAB to those who wanted to. The whole class did... Anyway. The results come in. The recruiters give out the results... One of the recruiters asked who is "so and so" and "so and so"?... The other student and I looked at each other confused and then we both raised our hands, I asked why.. the recruiter said that we shared a birthday and... So l looked at the other guy and asked where he was from and he said Honolulu
To my amazement I asked what hospital and he said Tripler
Now I'm outright astonished...
Being born in the same hospital on the same day, from the same city to meet, "again" 17 years, from Honolulu to Virginia Beach, the same hospital to the same classroom half way around the world 17 years later....
It is indeed a small world 🌎
@@seanx476My dad and uncle lived together in their early twenties and also worked together for the same company. Unfortunately my uncle was killed in a car accident and his body was badly damaged and burned so the decision was made to have his remains cremated. Three years later,
my dad had a girlfriend that decided she no longer wanted to be with him and moved out of his house while he was at work and somehow mistook my uncles urn that held his ashes as something that belonged to her. She had never met my uncle while he was alive so she had no reason for intentionally taking the urn but for whatever reason she did.. This caused serious problems between my dad and the rest of the family as they originally wanted the urn to be given to my grandmother safely at her house but my dad insisted that it stay at his house because that's where my uncle lived when he passed away.
Anyways.. fast forward sixteen years and over eight hundred miles away my aunt and grandmother were visiting a local swap meet in a town they had never been to before and just as they had decided to call it a day my grandmother glanced down at a tarp covered in old tools and junk but sitting there amongst the random items was my uncles urn.. his name inscribed beautifully along it's side and with the paper seal still intact it was clear that it had never been opened. With tears in her eyes, my aunt reached down, picked up the urn glanced up and the vendor and said "We're taking this" needless to say.. he didn't protest.
My grandmother was nearing the end of her life and finding her son was one of the most meaningful things that ever could have happened. My dad has since passed but it's something we often spoke of and something that I will always cherish and share with anyone who will listen. Thanks for taking the time to read this.

No cards or calls for almost 15 years now. If she left CA she didn't let any of her extended family know! Hopefully she is still married and healthy and happy.

One of the stories talks about not seeing someone for a long time and then having them show up in dreams and then running into them soon after. I had a similar experience. I have a friend that I went to high school with, and we lived in the same neighborhood. I was in my 50's when I had a dream that had my friend in it. When I woke up, I felt I had to attempt to find him. I remember he said at one time that he worked at a marina where we grew up. I drove there and actually found him there. You might say, "well, he works there." Talking with him, he asked how I knew he would be there, because he hadn't worked there for 10 years and was only there because someone needed work on a boat. So, he normally didn't go to the marina. Just happened to be there.
Very good story. Thanks.
What an incredible story. Thanks for sharing. I'm glad that you found your friend.
I used to think about or dream about someone I hadn't seen in a long time and within 3 days I would see them. This would happen when I was younger. It doesn't happen anymore. I lost the gift. Lol
In the early 80’s I was in a 4th/5th grade blended classroom in SW Washington state. One day we got a new student, a blond 4th grade boy from Arkansas. Two days later we got another new student, a blond 4th grade boy who looked a lot like the 5th grader, but this one from Kentucky. It was very uncommon for our school to get new students from so far away, let alone within two days of each other… but the real coincidence was that the two boys had met before, in an arcade at one of those big commercial rest areas in some far-off state they both were traveling through to get here, maybe Kansas? They had played some video games, neither knowing the other was also moving to Vancouver, Wa. It’s been more than 40 years and it’s still one of the neatest coincidences of my childhood as those two boys both felt they had a ready-made friend within days.

A lot. There was a king foo movie in the early 2000’s that I rented and subsequently never watched because I ended up covering shifts for the next couple of days and then I returned it in watched. I went in the next week to rent it and it wasn’t there. The people working said it didn’t become available for rent until the next month.
In 1989, I also watched a “Special Presentation” on HBO. I was in high school and was supposed to be in bed and it was early morning, but there was a movie I wanted to watch coming on. lol.
This “special presentation” started and I was like this isn’t ‘Big trouble in little China’. Turns out it was “Driving Miss Daisy”.
I ended up telling my parents how food it was an my mom didn’t believe me. She said one of her coworkers were going to to see it before they went Christmas shopping and it’s impossible to see it one HBO when it had just opened in the theater. Well, I was pissed so I told her to write down what I was going to say. I told her the premise, the cast and the car. I told her how the maid dies and it was the lady from “Good Times” and about the graveyard scene and Hoke needing to go to the bathroom but he said “make water”. I told her how it ended too. I said you take that to work and ask your friend about it. She did, when she came home she told me I was grounded and to never talk about it again. She had called the cable company and they said it wasn’t showing because it was just opening in the theater, but everything I had said was right.
I get that sometimes with songs. It’s a brand new song but for some reason it feels so familiar. It’s weird.
In 2014, I was assigned in my new job to a town in the Phillipines approximately 1,000 miles from home. I had to drive by a town which I visited 20 years back because my ex-girlfriend lived there. I haven't seen her in ... well...
20 years. Driving the company issued car, memories kept rushing back, my ex-gf and me, dating, spending our youth like forever, snacking under a tree in a park. When the traffic lights went green, I had to drive in slow motion. It felt like my tires were so lazy rolling and there seemed a magnet pulling me back as I leave the town. So I u-turned and decided to relax at a McDonald's. In line for my order, on the other cashier line was my ex-gf who I haven't seen for 2 decades. Our eyes met and locked for 15 seconds. We froze. After we said each other's hello, we sat facing each other. But she had to leave fast as her husband is waiting outside. I didn't know what to feel. Maybe nostalgia, joy, loneliness, rolled into one emotion. Whew...
Wow. What the..... That is extremely uncanny. 😮
Everyone, please . . . avoid McDonalds
You should have started at her cheeks and worked your way down.

I loved a book when I was a kid that had Barbie getting married and her wedding dress got lost. It was a chase around town for Barbie and her friends to get the dress back. Fast forward 30-something years later and my cousin is getting married. We had a chase around town to get her dress, which reminded me of that book so I went onto eBay to search for it. I found a copy and bought it to give to my cousin for a nice little memory. Picture my surprise when I opened the book and there was, in my handwriting, my name printed on the inside where I had put it as a young kid. I bought my own book back! It had made its way across the US. Made for a great story at the wedding lol.

Around 1990, my employer in North Carolina sent me to New York City for meetings with an associated organization in midtown Manhattan. During a break, I chatted with one of their department heads, and mentioned my retired parents lived on an island on the NC coast. I was explaining where that was when he said "I know - my father was born there," and his parents had moved North in the 1930's for better opportunities. The next day he brought in an old family photo of a child's burial in 1915, in a family plot next to my father's place. The photo contains the only known image of one of my great-grandmothers, who, with several of the others, later took up residence in that plot.

speaking of…When I was 17, a senior in high school, my teacher asked me to walk a girl to the parking lot to get picked up by her mother because she was getting bullied. I did and off she went. That only happened once. Later that day I went to my job working at a full-service gas station. From time to time, a disabled man (quadriplegic, I would later find out) would drive his van into the full serve lane for gas and occasionally to get air in his wheelchair tires. I would happily fill them to the proper pressure and off he would go.
A few months later, I got into an accident that left me quadriplegic, exactly the same injury that he had. after I realized what being a quadriplegic meant, I remembered reading a book on the Vietnam War when I was a sophomore. It wasn't a book about the war, it was about the injury a soldier sustained in battle. He was quadriplegic.
About a year later, I moved into my own apartment. One day, sitting by the pool, a man in a wheelchair entered the pool area. It was the very same man that I would help at the gas station. I thought, "well that's certainly ironic." I would see him from time to time and would play chess on occasion. A month or so later, I went out to the pool and he was out there with a young girl. He introduced her as his daughter. I immediately recognized her as the very same, bullied girl that I walked out to the parking lot that day. My mind was blown. I don't think all of this was coincidence. I believe it was "the universe" preparing me for what was to come. It made me believe that I was destined to live the life I'm living, awful as it may be. 38 years later and in bad health, I'm conflicted as to whether I'm supposed to let life run its course to the end or if I'm "allowed" to take matters into my own hands, if you know what I mean. I'd prefer the latter, because I'm really tired and this is getting old. 🙂

We were remodeling our kitchen and I had to go to a town I’ve never been to so I could pick out a countertop. I decided to stop at this little cafe to eat when a handsome man came in and sat next to me at the counter. In 4 grade I had a crush on this boy named Tommy McGee and he had a crush on me so he would write me notes with money for candy taped to it. Throughout my life I had always wondered whatever happened to him. I had never forgotten him.
So here I am sitting next to a guy that kind of looks like a scrappy Paul newman, blue eyes tattoos. We made small talk and then I ask him if he’s from around the area, he said he grew up in the same town I lived in and he had gone to the same middle school I went to. So I asked him if he remembered a kid named Tom McGee and his eyes got big and he said he was Tom! He showed me his drivers license. Amazing after 55 years that we happened to walk into a place that neither of us had ever been to. We still keep in touch!
I hope you still post a candy bar to each other at Christmas 😊
European here. Such things happen all the time. I myself was part of such an enormous coincidence. When I was a young man in the early 90s, I was involved in a band. My best friend (we started school together as 6-year-olds) as lead singer and guitarist and I went on holiday to Portugal together. When we arrived at our destination, we met a group of guys (no one knew about the others' holiday plans) from our hometown who we knew very well. The guys were just talking about our band when we pulled up right there in the band bus. You can imagine the astonishment, 2500 km from home. My best friend was able to top that easily when, a few years later, he and his wife were on holiday in South Africa and "stumbled upon" two good friends on Table Mountain in Cape Town. Again, neither of the two "parties" had the foggiest idea that they were in southern Africa. This time, the distance was a cool 12,000 kilometers... I know of other second-hand cases. On the run from a stressful job in Germany, on holiday in Canada and on the television tower in Montreal, you suddenly find yourself standing in front of your boss. Wth...?

I asked around about him to see if anyone knew his name or when they would be preforming again. I had to see him.
I never got his name and never saw him at another show. A year later I was in solitary confinement in a county jail and a very very cute guy with a shaved head brought my meals every day.
He started putting letters wrapped in plastic in my food to talk to me. It was wild trying to communicate like that since we weren’t permitted to speak to one another.
About a month into the stay I was handcuffed and led to the sally port going to court. In case I got released he put his ID bracelet in my uniform pocket to be able to remember his name and ID number and kissed me right there behind the guards backs.
When I got to look at the bracelet my whole face fell off, in the photo he had long, longer than shoulder length dark hair and I recognized it was the guy from the photos at the rap show. In jail he had a shaved head.
My powers of manifestation really truly brought us together in the worst way. Three years later, a year after he got out of prison we got married… smh life is wild…
THAT'S destiny baby....
I love this ❤

Several years ago, a few coworkers and I were discussing our favorite scary movies. One person brought up the Amityville Horror, a movie I had never seen but had vague recollections hearing about as a kid. He described it as a haunted house movie and said it was based on a true story. Intrigued, I decided to do research about it during my upcoming break. I learned it had to do with the real-life family member murders of Ronald DeFeo, Jr. who killed six members of his family on November 13, 1974. When I read that date, I was shocked. I looked at the clock on my computer and it was a few seconds after midnight and the date on my computer said "11/13/2004". Out of the blue, I had sought out information on the DeFeo murders on the 30th anniversary of their occurrence!
Interesting, but not logic defying odds, really. I mean, there's only one 30th anniversary of any given date, but there is one anniversary of any given date each year and the odds of it being day x are 1:365 (okay, 1:366 for leap years).
If the odds of winning the lottery were 1 in 365 I would buy lotto tickets.
@@TanyaWest-fh8iz Yeah, but most anniversaries don't commemorate the most evil of occurrences...a person murdering all of the members of his family, and I happened to read about it a few seconds after midnight in an empty, darkened break room. That added a great deal of creepiness to an already horrifying story. I found the whole ordeal to be a memorably odd coincidence.
I was born and lived in England as a child then we moved to Canada. 40 years later, I'm making a call to a client and the client had a English accent. She proceeds to tell me her name and then i asked her if she had a brother named Michael and did she live on Newfield. It was my next door neighbour from my childhood!
Something very weird happened to me. One evening, i read an article by an aircraft engineer. The next day, i found myself parked next to him!

What no one seems to ever talk about is how many times The Simpsons made a prediction about the future that didn't come true.
Because it's not relevant ?
There's a name for it but I forget what it is. We pay attention to the things that do line up rather than the things that don't.
Who gives a crap? I never watch the simpsons.
@@curtis4109 Those who care about truth, facts & want others not to be ignorant fools. It's irrelevant whether someone watches The Simpsons or not because many people will still see videos like this and assume the Simpsons have some magical ability to predict the future. What The Simpsons have predicted is in no way outside of what random chance would allow.
But people who don't understand statistics or look at how many times a Simpsons have made a prediction that was wrong tend to go on believing in falsities.

I'm from Kansas City, but moved to a tiny little town in coastal Southern Oregon with my first wife in the late 80's. We were young and my wife and I split, so I moved back home to KC. Several years later, I had remarried, and was taking my family on a vacation to Vail, Colorado. We stopped in a Walmart in Denver, and I saw a guy putting stuff in the trunk of his car with Oregon license plates. I casually asked, "Where are you from in Oregon?"
He replied "A town on the southern coast."
"Oh yeah?" I said, "I used to live on the southern coast. What town?"
"Gold Beach", he replied.
"That's where I lived, too! Do you happen to know a guy named Joe Birt?"
He stopped loading stuff, looked at me and said "Yeah, that's my best friend."
I replied "He was my best friend when I lived there, too."
In the early 70's I was stationed in the 296th Army band in Japan. One night several of us were drinking in the barracks (it was the era of the military easing up many rules.) At one point Dan Fonstad, picked up his trombone and played taps. When he finished the lights went out in the building. We all had a huge laugh thinking someone else in the building -- hearing taps -- turned the lights off. However, when we looked outside the base was dark, the lights were out for the entire camp. A thunderstorm miles away struck a power station plunging the base into darkness exactly when Dan finished taps..
In high school at graduation in the gym a large bolt of lightning hit when they handed me my diploma plunging us into dark for a while.
@greendeane1 wow coincidences galore from "band camp" to Japan during Vietnam listening to a guy on a trombone, not a bugle, not a trumpet, a trombone! How lucky can YOU get! I wonder, Taps on Tuba?

I have had this happen also. I'm 53, and it's happened around 15 times or so, so far. I remember the first time, I was maby 5 or 6 years old. The last I remember was a few years ago. It's always a small amount of time and very short. I would like to figure out how to do it intentionally. But how does this happen? It's remarkable and needs figured out.

In 1983 I was driving from Ohio to Rochester New York. On the New York through way I happened to look over at the car driving next to me. The driver was a coworker in Ohio. We both started laughing and gave each other a wave.
Before I met and married my wife, I worked next to her factory for over a year. Often after work I hung out with one of my buddies who turns out lived right next to her in a quadplex. When she moved out of there she moved into the apartment that I just moved out of. Then we ended up working at the same factory, over 40 years ago. Still together, still madly in love with her .
When I was in my 20's I left California for Arkansas and met some Rainbow hippies that lived in a broken down bus in the woods. Rainbows are travelers and tend to attract other travelers and one night I visited the bus and met a couple that were from Connecticut. From the exact small town my mother's sister lived in they had gone to jr high/ high school with my cousin. We were all 1500 miles from our homes at a random location in the woods. My friend said his driveway is connected to the universe, you never know whos gonna show up.
In the early stagee of being treated for cancer, I had to find my own way there by taxi before the hospital could arrange travel...I had no money and it would cost me at least 15€ ...
I had to go to the store before getting the taxi and as I crossed the road to get there, still thinking where to get the extra money...this wind lifted up and as I looked in that direction of the wind, amongst the leaves, blowing towards me...I could see some money. As I bent down, I discovered 15€...exactly the amount I needed!
I recommend that people read the book Time Loops by Eric Wargo. Precognition is absolutely real. He explains potential mechanisms and gives more explanation to these and other examples including with Jung and Freud but also citing recent studies in quantum physics, quantum biology and predictive processing. Honestly this book was a game changer for me as I have had precognitive dreams and knowing and was skeptical about how it worked.
Precognition is most definitely real.
This sounds interesting I’m gonna definitely look into getting it.
Reading this I’m very scared I keep having horrible dreams of my son with cancer dying I can’t handle this
I looked on Kindle, it's $9.99. I have a free Audible credit rolling around, though, so I'll check it out. Thanks so much for the recommendation. It looks very interesting.
@@starkiller1782 there are people who believe if you talk about it you will take away the power it has. So I hear you. Be grateful for what you have right now and don’t put these thoughts of the dreams in the forefront at all. Be here now. Also read the book Time Loops. It brought me some comfort.
Here’s one from my life: Living in Oakland California one day my girlfriend was over and we were just chilling in my bedroom. For some reason she was jumping on my bed goofing around. She was chanting “earthquake, earthquake” trying to bounce me. I was annoyed that she was wrecking my bed and so I asked her to stop it. She kept it up and asked me why? I said if you keep it up you’re gonna cause an earthquake. I was new to California and was fearful. SURE ENOUGH moments later there was an earthquake! My roommate can back me up on this, but I lost touch with that girlfriend. This is what I’ve termed “synchronicity,”and it wasn’t the only instance, but it was the most significant and disturbing incident.

i took a month off work and planned to visit a friend who worked about 5 hours away.
when i got there i ended up spending 3 weeks working on a sheep farm
when i returned to work my boss asked me about moonlighting
i thought how the hell could he know.
he then showed me a Polaroid of me in front of similar machines that we worked on
even i thought it was me. until i noticed he was wearing a gold plated watch and watch band. i said my watch is silver
that wasn't the end of it. i was at a nite club and was getting close and personal with a girl and suddenly 2 women i didn't know said why aren't you home with your wife and new born instead of cheating..
they refused to believe i wasn't this other person until i showed them my driver's licence
I've never seen this person face to face
You should have a couple more coincidents added. First a now married couple in the United States was both at Disney land separately with their own parents and siblings when they discovered that in pictures as children the couple were pictured together, only without knowing until they were married. Exactly like the Asian couple you showed, only this couple was from the u.s. and pictured as small children. Second, that three times ship wrecks have happened, in the 1600s, 1700s, and 1800s, about 80 years apart, each time only one person survived. The person's name was Hugh Williams. They were no related, but still had the same name, and were sole survivors.
It actually was the same guy.
Damn.....one of my dad's best friends was names Hugh Williams.....but far as I know he was never on a sibling ship.
BTW, the Titanic and Britannic did not "sunk." They "SANK."
A loving creator is the one who is responsible for the amazing natural happenings. No coincidence. I am a biology teacher and am in constant awe of how God created us, the animals, and nature. So complex, and no way for us to recreate it!
I agree wholeheartedly!!!
And for our part in it all, it is the result of presence, connection, alignment, and synchronicity.
I believe like that aa well!❤❤
😊 AMEN !
What if it is actually due mysterious forces in the universe, rather than a single and grand god?
I believe God sets us up to be in the right place at the right time.
Amen !!!❤
I photograph cemeteries and saw a monument I was fascinated by. James Allen McPherson he was an author and taught at the writer's workshop. Not two weeks later my friend asked me to meet her at the bar. She was talking to a guy and I was looking at my phone, when I heard him say, that he was Jim McPherson's class. When I pulled up the photos I had taken he was gobsmacked. He told me some great stories and passed along writing advice to me that JAM had given him. I have goosebumps just remembering the situation. I truly feel like I got advice for the beyond.
1:00:34 Maybe I'm the first one to actually get this far in the video, or maybe nobody noticed, but is it really necessary to pixelate the fictional baby's face? Is TH-cam THAT friggen strict nowadays? Or are creators just being overly cautious to stay on the safe side?
God, I miss the good old days of the internet. Peak freedom was when broadband internet became widely available and decentralized. It was so easy to Google what you were looking for. There was a time when you could actually find whatever random stuff you'd search for on Google.
I miss the older days when usenet was the social media and it wasn't owned or censored. That was before google even existed.
My partner and I were both born on EXACTLY the same day, when we met we learned that I live next to his best friend and he had visited often there and we never met. We also learned that we have lived the entirety of our lives right next to each other, but somehow we never met until the day we did, coincidentally the exactly right time given our pasts.
My parents are both born on November 19th, I was due on November 19th there was a write up in the paper, I came a week late on the 26th then 17 years later my youngest brother came on November 29th
Back in the 90's my family went on a weekend camping trip, couple hours drive down the TransCanada. The only time my dad ever ran out of gas. Left me, my mom, sister and a cousin at the side of the road with the Oldsmobile on the shoulder while he walked back to a gas station we passed many kms back. We took this opportunity for a bathroom break, those being shy about their business walked deep into the woods off to the side. My cousin had this "bad feeling" and refused to go anywhere. Because we spent so much time waiting we knew the spot well, (there were a few telltale landmarks). Dad returns with a gas can, fills the tank, car starts just fine, and we go camping. After the weekend we're driving back and pass the exact spot only this time there are police and emergency crew everywhere and the entrance to woods was taped off like a crime scene. It would be a while before we found out on the news of a killer who finally led police to the bodies he left in those woods. To this day my dad insists he had enough gas when we left. The whole thing was one big freaky coincidence.

A few months ago, I was coming home from a medical appointment, and passed the last major shopping center before the turn into my neighborhood. Something in my brain yelled, “Cat litter! You need cat litter! They’ll hate you if you don’t change the cat litter!”
So I pulled into the shopping plaza, and as I was searching for a parking spot, it occurred to me why it felt familiar: I had been here two days before, picking up cat litter-I just hadn’t taken it out of the trunk. I took another thoughtful lap or two, deciding whether I needed anything else from the Walmart, or some fast food from one of the franchises.
Nope! So having wasted about six minutes of the early Nashville rush hour, I pulled back into traffic, disgusted to find that slow but flowing traffic had come to a near halt.
I sat and inched while sirens swirled closer, and as I was waved around by an early first responder, saw that the wreck - a commercial van had t-boned a compact car, like my own - was in the lane and within a car length of where I would have made my turn.
I certainly will never know whether that little car would have been me … but I am grateful my brain found a way to get me off the road.
Those who have studied mathematics, and many different fields of science can tell you that there are numerous coincidences that can occur in seemingly impossible circumstances. The human need for finding meaning in an otherwise random and meaningless universe can make these coincidences feel like the product of fate or some kind of cosmic influence. The fact that our existence is so random and completely out of our control is frightening to many people. The need for meaning in a meaningless universe leaves us feeling so inconsequential and small.. I think that is even more of a reason to cherish the miracle of our existence.
I bore my family with facts surrounding the number 3 … 😜

My sister was in the delivery room in 1975-the gal in the labor room suddenly needed to deliver her baby, so my sis was wheeled out. Baby #2 was delivered but mistakenly named "Coen", not "Strenke". 45 minutes later the error was corrected. We even gave the baby and momma a ride home later that week. 7 years later I fell in love- at first sight - with the uncle of baby #2. I am now Aunt to both girls! Weird.
dude the watch you can talk into is not a prediction of the smart watch. if anything it's a reference to the pulp comics detective Dick Tracy from 1931 and the movie from 1990 in which he uses a watch radio.

I had 2 incidents so far in my life while driving that were absolutely uncanny. The first is I was up late and had a craving for something but didn't know what I wanted so i head out to the store. I was driving along (I may have been doing 5 over the speed limit) and I suddenly had an overwhelming feeling to slow down. I slowed to the actual speed limit. Not much farther up there road a car ran a stop sign to my left which ended at a T with my road and he crashed into a telephone pole. I stopped and rushed to see if he was ok. The roads were slick from rain and heavy fog. Just as I got to his door a cop car comes to a screeching halt and I realize with horror that this man was running from police. I run back to my car and get to the store and just sobbed. If I hadn't slowed down he would've hit me. I was lucky he didn't have a weapon. The second time was I was in my tiny 2002 Kia Rio with 3 friends and we were driving along a main road that have many cross streets that have stop signs but we had the right of way. That same feeling from the previous incident came over me again and so I slowed down. Minutes later a huge black pickup truck barrels through the stop sign to my right and just missed hitting us. Everyone in my car went silent for several minutes. Then everyone started freaking out. I told them of my previous experience and all our minds were blown simultaneously.
My wife, son and I were at an intersection, when a man on a motorcycle was making a turn towards us. My wife mentioned it was my doppelganger, which was really quite accurate. Looked just like me. I was scrolling through tiktok one day and a video came up that showed a man roller skating. It looked just like me, my first thought was who posted a video of me roller skating, second thought was when did i go roller skating. Upon looking at the user who posted it, it was my ex-wife. The man on the motorcycle and in the video same man, her new husband. He looks just like me, kinda creepy i think.
Man, you'd think she would've learned her lesson lol.
My parents separated for a while and started seeing other people. I was stunned when I met the woman my Dad was seeing. She was a doppelgänger of my mother.

Back in the 1980’s I was stationed at Kirkland AF Base and met a man in my squadron who had the same birthday. It turns out he was born in Albuquerque at about 8:15 and I was born in Oregon at about 7:15. So I was working with someone who had been born at the same time, day, month and year (because of the time difference between mountain and pacific time zones. Hope you’re doing well Ron.
I met my best friend 30 years ago,we both from the same city but his family were from Cyprus and my family were British. Fast forward 6 years I met my future husband who grew up in another city but his family were also from Cyprus and I introduced my friend and husband. Cyprus isn’t a very big Island but has 1 million inhabitants but they stated discussing the village their families were from and coincidentally it was the same village, it didn’t end there, their grandparents were next door neighbours and their parents and siblings all grew up together…..my husband had a brother who died Dec 8th 1978 at 8 years old, my friend was born the next day.
Ummm, what about that Japanese man who survived both the bomb droppings in Hiroshima and Nagasaki?..
Statistically, there is a good chance that this could have happened. So really, that isn't that impressive. But holy fuck that man must be a nervous wreck after all that.

No thanks!!!
I have seen way too many "coincidences" to believe its not all planned and orchestrated by a higher being.
Maybe its just me,but,None of these creeped me out
Considering how wrong the first one on the Titan is _(it said the Titanic measured 280 feet long, it was 880 feet long)_ like the fact that the number of lifeboats had nothing to do with how many people died on the Titan _(it sank in about five minutes, they only had the time to evacuate 17 people compared to sinking over several hours and having 700+ people surviving the Titanic),_ I imagine most of these are very poorly researched and overly sensationalized.

Me either. I just thought it was interesting.
I’ve have 4 coincidences….First one happened when I was 16. My small school was having a huge field day at the recreation center. I had on 10 kt. gold earrings and walked all over the place and suddenly
my friend noticed I was missing one of my earrings. It was getting close to the time to leave. I told her that I need to retrace all the places that we went to. I looked and looked and of course I couldn’t find it. So, as we were headed back to the buses I stopped dead in my tracks and looked down and right in front of my foot was my earring which happened to be closer to the entrance of the recreation center.
The second one was when I was 29 my husband was out at sea for a six month cruise he flew on E-2 airplanes and it was our son’s 9th. birthday. I had decided not to let him go to school that day and took him to the mall to get lunch and to shop around to buy him a couple of gifts to make his day feel special. After a day of fun we were headed home and out of the blue I said to him…Can you imagine if one of those planes went down at sea? I don’t know why that thought had even crossed my mind. It’s not like I was even thinking about it. Then when we got in the door the phone rang and the lady on the phone introduced herself and said, before I say anything else I just wanted to let you to know your husband is alright. I thought she was going to say that he broke his arm or something else but, she said, I wanted to let you know that one of the planes crashed into the water and that more information would be coming to let me know who was on the plane and that she couldn’t say at that moment who it was until she made calls to the other wives whose husbands were ok in that squadron and hours went by and I got the call. I couldn’t believe my ears. I just cried and cried.
The third one was when I was 34 I needed to go to the grocery store and I happened to look out my big kitchen window and saw a tall skinny pine tree that looked awful. I told my 2 kids that when their father got home I was going to ask him to cut it down. When we got back from the grocery store I started putting the items away and glanced out of the window and saw that the tree was down on the ground roots and all.
The fourth one was when I was around 46 and I went to the grocery store by myself, and after being there awhile I stopped in front of the frosted blueberry Pop tarts which my daughter loved so I decided to call her and ask her if she wanted anymore and as I was waiting for the phone to ring it didn’t, it was quiet then I happened to see my daughters name on my phone and I said, Hello? and she said, Mom? We had called each other at the exact same time. So I asked why she was calling me and she asked me if I could get her a box of frosted blueberry Pop tarts. I couldn’t believe it.

One time I was driving the last leg of my 2 hour commute home. While waiting to make a turn I thought of a girl I grew up with, LF. I hadn’t seen her in over thirty years… which is odd given that my town is lovingly called Smalltimore. Exhaustedwhen I arrived home, I almost bailed on a plan to attend $1 crab night with my auntie. I went. We sat outside because we were a little late (I was dragging) and the dining room was full. I went inside to the restroom. When I returned, a party was seated at the next table. Once I settled in, I looked up and realized that the woman directly facing me looked like a 43 yo LR. It was her…literally 2 yards in front of me…less than 2 hrs after I thought of her for the 1st time in 30 plus years. I’ll never forget it.
Am I the only one disturbed by the fact that, out of all of the stories in this video, the only time the AI really gave itself away was when it said that "rifling through a drawer" in a hotel room they had paid for, was "something most of us know not to do"?
