What really freaky coincidences have you come across? I'll start...
Dad and I were wondering what film to watch. Now, seeing as we don't have TV, we have literally hundreds of DVDs and videos to choose from so that we don't get bored. The chances of us picking the same comes to about 600 to 1. But at exactly the same time, we both suggested "The Legend Of Zorro". Wierd.
Another one:
Mum bought me this book that I really didn't want to read, but knew nothing about, called Tunnels. One night, I randomly decide to do some research into albino people. The next night, I start reading the book... and the main character is albino.

The book I did for my personal study in English (A Long Way Down) mentioned the book we were reading in class (Catcher in the Rye). Then there was a poem on the board, and the first line of it was exactly the same as what someone in A Long Way Down said should be a song title.

I wrote a 58 chapter fan fiction. In it, during chapter 18 I used the lyrics to a song that became a personal song for my main couple. A friend of mine was sat reading that chapter online and as he got to the scene where the girl sings those song lyrics - on his PC the playlist he was listening to began to play that song.

I was at the conservatory one evening.
And when it gets dark, around 7 or 8pm they turn on the lights (theres a window in the roof).
that evening I was sat there arguing with a friend. nothing serious, just joking about.
And I slammed my fist on the table. Hard.
Exactly when the lights went on.
I seriously thought Id turned on the lights for a sacond before I thought realistically.
I even tried smacking again to turn them off.

First day at work I experienced Deja Vu over a minute long.
Off-topic, sorry.

Yeah.
I know how they say a deja vu is because the mind recognises he image before you process it and it seems like youve seen it before.
But Ive had deja vus where I see something and I realise that exactly thast thing happened in a dream already or some other time.
I know its not just a mind trick.
Always weird when that happens.

Listening to 'Wish You Were Here' by Pink Floyd, whilst browsing an internet article called 'WORST LYRICS EVAA!' or something like that.
Then the article mentioned the line: "We're just two lost souls swimming in a fish bowl" at the moment it appeared in the song. FREAKY

Well, they say Deja Vu happens more often to some people. To me, it happens on an alarming regularity, so much so that at one point I couldn't distinguish between thoughts and reality.
But that's a long story for another day.

I love Deja Vu, i get it quite frequently. Ive had instances where I have seen my entire day in a dream, and then relived it out again. Pretty crazy.
I had a weird coincidence, it isnt that weird but.
I was playing Metal Gear Soild 3, and I thought that one of the chicks(EVA) looked alot like one of my friends from curling, as i was thinking this, my phone rang and it was her calling me asking for another friends phone number.
Pretty lame, but it was creepy.

I was in history class the other day, and we so happened to be having history in a geography room. In front of the desk I was sitting at, there was a pile of National Geographic magazines. The top one was dated July 1993. The month and year in which I was born...

This isn't something that happened to me, but my aunt.
Upon visiting her late husband's grave, she encountered a crow sitting on his tombstone with a snake in its mouth. Apparently, my uncle really HATED snakes, and its just weird. o_O Of all graves...And to have a crow with a snake in its mouth on his grave..

I´m glad to see you care about me... lol.
I love deja vu!!! It´s really freaky, but it´s also awesome.
Sometimes it can be explained by science, but other times... It´s just supernatural... I hate it if you mention it to someone and they go ¨Yeah, right.¨ And you feel really stupid...

ahhhh... i love coincidences... if you believe in them.
but one day meanswhile i was in a car driving along, i was looking at the track listing for niel youngs album greatest hits and the last track i looked at was called Harvest Moon, then i looked up and saw a cafe called the 'harvest moon cafe' then when i got home a bit later i switched on the TV and the programme went into the adverts and the advert for the nintendo DS game 'Harvest Moon' came on.
very coincidental indeed
and no i didnt make up a single bit of that.

Two for today:
one, I just made my 666th post here and just as I hit 'post reply', my phone fell off my desk and onto the floor and hit some random keys. I picked it up and it had the numbers '666' on the screen xP
two, I picked up a hold from the library today and I was flipping through it in the car when a piece of paper fell out of it and it was a worksheet, for school I think, and it had the name of my best friend from elementary school on it. Interestingly, I was just thinking about her today. It's not exactly a very common name so...you never know, could be her ^_^
