Wow, this is really weird. More and more often lately, I've had an encounter with someone/seen something/heard about something and then that thing just pops into my life more and more. Example: The other day in math, these girls were busy yapping about soaps, and one had one in mind that she just loved to watch when she was in britain, but couldn't remember the name of it. Then she remembered and just sorta shouted it out, Footballer's Wives. Now, naturally, I'd never heard of this before, and it sort of floated to the back of my mind. Then I log in to Ironworks later that day and what has Cloudy posted a topic of in the movies/books/tv shows forum? One about Footballers Wives. [img]tongue.gif[/img] It happens with people too. I'll be standing behind someone in line at the cafeteria(disgusting food, I only go there for bottled drinks. ) and someone will make a fool of himself and I'll see him/her walking in the halls EVERY DAY, I'll see him/her in the malls, in the bloody car next to me. It's actually getting pretty creepy, this footballers wives thing just topped it off though since it's so random. I mean honestly, what were the chances that I'd be sitting near these girls in math(I never usually even sit where I was!), and they'd just happen to shout out the name of a british soap and then someone on a forum I frequent just happens to make a topic about that particular show, with similar comments about it. It's just.... weird.
I know exactly what you mean, Sir G and it happens to me all the time. I watched Terminator 3 on dvd and was impressed by the actor who plays John Connor, though i've never seen or heard of him before. Movie finishes and i switch to the TV - and a show called Carnivale is on featuring this same actor! WTF?

Someone mentioned the term 'Bling bling' in Vaskez' Best of rapbattles.com post and i've never encountered this term before (Sad, i know). I go to a friend's house to play cards that night and it's mentioned by two different people in two different conversations. WTF?

And there's more but the freakiness of them escapes me at the mo.

Off Topic: I had some news today regarding my new house. Everything's finalised and i will be moving in this weekend. The whole moving thing's been on the cards for about a year and i'm stoked that it's all gonna happen by the date that i set myself - the milestone 25th B'day. *nudge, wink wellard *
Unfortunately this means that i'm not gonna be able to post on IW anywhere near as much as i'd like so, everyone, please try to contain your sorrow.
