really strange coincidences


Recommended Posts

There was one of these going on over on 2+2. I found it interesting, and don't remember seeing one here?!? If it has or if there is no interest....just delete me, lock me, or mod me or whatever.Feel free to add any of your strange coincidences+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++I had this cool teacher in 3rd grade. She was a small woman, just a bit taller than we students. And I remembered this phrase she always used, talking about a character in a story or some lesson....She'd say "Some people are always a day late and a dollar short." She used that phrase a lot. And I never really understood the full meaning of it.Flash forward twenty years later, different city. I was trying to get two of the guys to just give me their dam order already, and wanted them to stop arguing the pros and cons lunch more intensely than I had heard them discuss any important business matters that day. All of the sudden that phrase pops into my head "Day late, dollar short." And suddenly I think I have a good idea of what she meant. So, I'm off to get lunch. I'm standing in line to pick up sandwiches for the office. Someone taps me on the shoulder. I look around and down. It's that same teacher! I haven't seen her since third grade, and now I'm an adult and she recognized me right away. I told her how I remember that phrase, and how I just figured out what it meant.My turn to order so I'm walking off to the counter while talking...all the sudden she says. "You look exactly the same, You haven't changed one bit! Well, maybe a bit taller." lol 3rd grade to age 22. Different hair color, different hair style, different body shape (puberty and all) different height.Anyway, I think stories like this are interesting. And it seems like most everyone have a couple of em.Sorry if this post is goofy. I'm trying new medication for my insomnia, and it's not making me drowsy, but I'm having some fun side effects!! :dance:

I had a math teacher in 1st grade and she was a real bitch and I hated her guts. Well I moved and when I went into the 6th grade I saw on my schedule a "Ms. Price" and I was like "oh hell no, it can't be her." It was. I constantly got in trouble for flipping her off.

I know the Seinfeld thing was done, but...............There are no big coincidences and small coincidences, there is just coincidences.
