Title: Coincidence?
Post by: aboutasoandthis on July 14, 2006, 03:53:57 PM
Out of shear boredom, this stupid idea popped into my head. If you want, put any wierd coincidences that you come up with here.

Has anyone watched Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends? Anyone notice how the named characters are named Mac & Blue?

I don't....understand.

Whatever.

Coincidence that some jackass made The Ultimate Showdown, and shortly after "Chuck Norris is awesome" jokes came out of nowhere?

Rearrange the letters in "Santa" and you get "Satan".

Oh oh oh oh.

When I was 4, I had a imaginary friend named Peter Jackson.  8 years later I read the Lord of the Rings, and loved it.  And who makes the movies?  Peter Jackson....  Coincidence?  Yes, actually.  I just wanted to tell this story I suppose.

I always wondered what happened to that guy.  He thought he was faster on a bike than me.  He was wrong.

Nostradomus orriginally claimed that the world would end on July Fourteenth 2005. If you switch the leters around on Fourteenth, you come up with Eurenth fot, which is an an old Latin saying meaning disregard for all hope. Nostradomus then claimed that there would be 8 events of notorium, which was later called The Eon theroy, stating that 8 troublesome events would occure over the course of 2100 years, the 8th being the most terrible, and the cause of civilization to collapse. The first Eon Event was thought of as the death of Jesus Christ. The second was argued alot by the English and the Swiss, where both had an upseting accident involving thier current leaders. The third was supposedly Vietnam. Fourth was Labeled after 9/11. And the fifth is supposedly yet happen. There is one clue that anyone has been able to find, www.eon5.com, which makes absolutly no sense. People have thus tried to discover the origin of this mysterious WebSite with no purpouse... Such as URL dating.. The site went up at September 11th, the same year that the World Trade Center in NewYork was destroid in a terrorist strike. No one has been able to find out anything about this site besides its origin date, which occured the same day as the supposed EON4 occured. Some people think that this may infact be foretelling another disasterous event over the horrizen... Some just think it is stupid and paranoia. Whatever it is though, the fact is that there is no information on this site, and the one of the worlds greatest predictors foretold that this would happen.

Coincidence, I think so.

Everyone can predict stuff. I predict that you die. See, it'll come true. One day...

To make it even better, you'll die on a day that ends with the word day. And if you rearrange the letters, you get day.

The day before 9/11, all gold in the World Trade Center was asked to be removed that day and that all taxis park elsewhere around it.

Where the hell you been man?
Chuck Norris jokes were EVERYWHERE before the Ultimate Showdown. They were so popular, they had enough time to put it into a song and then animate it. That's a pretty long time.

Tons of "coincidents" there.
"Blow" and "suck" mean the same thing in my mind. And in the minds of most teen-to-twentysomeodd males.

You know what a coincidence is? That just a short while before 9/11, they insured it for millions and millions of dollars specificly FOR TERRORIST ATTACKS. Now that's a coincidence. If you want more coincidences, I suggest to go watch Michael Moore's 'Fahrenheit 9/11'.

Perhaps the coincidence of that Bush won the election while millions of afro-americans were not allowed to vote. That he had family and friends in the goverment that were involved with the election. That even though in the beginning they said Al Gore won, Bush had suddenly won when FOX aired about the election.
Title:
Post by: aboutasoandthis on July 15, 2006, 02:33:53 PM
There is a reason for that.

See in America, we suck. We use the electoral college. This means that presidents try to win STATE votes and not the popular vote. Like, a president would care more about winning Texas than say Wyoming or Florida rather than Rhode Island. The bigger the state, the more Electoral College votes you get.

Gore won the popular vote, but Bush had more Electoral College votes. I think a state gets an Electoral College for every state representative+senator they have.

Am I correct on this?
Title:
Post by: Drace on July 15, 2006, 05:53:37 PM
The vote was about Florida. Almost all the news reports said Gore won Florida, but then FOX said Bush won and all the others ones followed FOX and said Bush won.
Title: Umm...
Post by: aboutasoandthis on July 15, 2006, 07:08:37 PM
Since when did the news decide the presidency and not the government?

Well to add another coincidence I found a rather disturbing one, or at least to me:

aboutasoandthis-Abercrombie & Fitch

I got my name from my little brother's catchphrase when he was 4 years old. We're black and he never lived in America (since he was born in Guam)...

One time, I was taunting this one kid during a game of  kickball.
I pointed at the big guy on my team and said, 'You see that guy? Well, he's gonna catch the ball, and then he's gonna tag you out.'
And then the big guy caught the ball and tagged the guy on the base I was covering.  It was pretty wierd.

Post by: Razor on July 15, 2006, 10:34:42 PM
Well, that's pretty neat. I wish more stuff like that happened.

And thus the nature of this particular coincidence! Well actually it's more of a conspiracy.

Huh? I'm afraid I missed the point of your post. Any chance that you'll make more sense of it?

It almost perfectly rhymes.

=========
A * bout
A * ber
=========
a * so
crom * bie
=========
and
and

There is no way my little brother (who was 4 at the time) could have heard of a company like that since he hadn't lived in America yet. He was born on a military base.

Ok, same number of syllables, but other than that, I see no connection. I think you're just trying too hard. :dry:
Title: Well...
Post by: aboutasoandthis on July 16, 2006, 02:48:16 AM
To each his own. Remember, this was an idea. You notice something, you post it.

I'm trying to hard to do what? :unsure:  No really, what am I trying to do?

Post by: Archem on July 16, 2006, 03:07:07 AM
It felt like you tried to force a coincidence. They're supposed to exist in a more natural form, but that felt like it was forced into being coincidental, which it still failed to do.
Title:
Post by: Meiscool-2 on July 16, 2006, 04:47:21 PM
You can't force coincidences. That's the beauty of them.

Post by: aboutasoandthis on July 16, 2006, 05:15:39 PM
What made you think I was trying to?

Plus I wanted to get away from the subject of 9/11. That could not have been a coincidence.

Coincidence = military intelligence now?

What makes the Maerican Government so shitty is the fact they think they're so goddamn invincible. That's why 9/11 happened. Too much money going to too many of the wrong causes. Tax the American citizen to pay for their gold trips to switzerland. Bullshit if you ask me.

I'm nto saying America in its entirety sucks. But it's got tons of problems, and it's not the declaration or the consitution. Not the government itself, but the ones that run it.

And yes, I would like that, I vote oooog. I don't know about Meiscool though, atleast we'd have some really sweet scenery.
