Serendipity's Bitch

[TheBlondest]

I often experience the max strange-coincidence quotient. And I have started to say that I am Serendipity's little-play thing. Anyone else?

You're probably more aware of the coincidences in your life. Everything is over my head, usually.

Please explain why you think this using concrete examples.

Did a man wearing a purple hat and green overalls knock on your door at 4 AM a few nights ago? Because that would be strange (and probably very creepy too).

Hey did, but I invited him in for tea and crackers. As he entered my foyer I made sure he had a reflection and then we seated ourselves by the fire and chatted late into the night. His name is Ferdinand and he raises free-range chickens in South Minneapolis. We exchanged hot-dish recipes and then he had to go.

Welcome to the world of syncronicities!

He raises chickens in South Minneapolis? Impressive.

My dad raises chickens (and has done so for the past 7 years) in a new jersey suberb. It is possible anywhere.

If the principle of causality is only a matter of statistical probability, then there is room for a complimentary principle in which nature arranges events which have apparent meaning to humans. I find this concept to be spooky. Yet it appears that it is mathematically sound.

 

[Poetic Justice]

It would be even stranger if coincidences never happened.
