Yeah, just a short blog asking people about small coincidences that make you smile.

One that happened just recently to me: I had some time to spare, so I loaded up Pandemic 2, determined to win. I failed three times with my best strategy (Parasite>sell all symptoms>level 1 resists>infect the world>rofl here comes hemorrhaging!). Obviously, the culprit is Madagascar, home of clairvoyant government officials who close down their only fucking seaport when they detect that someone in New Zealand has a fever.

On my fourth try, I renamed my parasite "FUCK YOU MADAGASCAR".

Game loads.

"Disease arrives in Madagascar".

I have those all the time, unfortunately I can't think of one right now.

However, I feel that this image should be posted in this thread.

When I raped and killed this one woman, I went down to the river to throw her in, and I saw someone else doing the same thing. Long story short, I killed him too. But I was smiling the whole way.

A couple days ago I had this one random song stuck in my head all day that I had only heard like twice before. As soon as I got in my car to drive home from class, and turned the radio on, the same song had just started playing.

:D

there are so many small coinsidences, but usually thay make me frustrated.
Like i'm surfing on the net i encounter a name that i really did not want to. To divert my attention, i watch a random mini-cartoon waht is suppoused to make me laugh, and i hear the name and it ruins my mood completly. It had fairly great chanse this to happen, right? Well, i leave my PC, i'm going to the TV room (i rarely do that) as soon as i enter the room i hear a name, exactly that one. I was so fucking pissed that somebody is messing with me... It's not a common name.
And there's so many shit like that...

Actually Angra's story reminded me of one.

My friend and I were on the elevator and she was bobbing her head as if she were listening to a song, but she didn't have headphones on. She wasn't humming the tune or anything, just bobbing her head to a rhythm. She noticed that I noticed, and said 'sorry, I've got a song stuck in my head', to which I replied, 'I know, is it 'song name'?' (can't currently remember the name of the song.) I was right, and she was shocked.

Idk how but somehow given just the rhythm that she was bobbing her head at I picked the song correctly. We were both a little freaked out.

I'm guessing it was the name of a person he is currently angry with or something.

what is up.
I rarely post here anymore, i randomly make posts and then just leave and forget that i ever made it and then never come back to the thread and then i remmber a week later i posted, but by then its too late.

i usually just come here to watch VODs and yeah thats it.

But the fact that you have seen one of posts makes me smile because it is a funny coincidence. Which makes this post of mines on topic.
