Weird Concidences - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Anyone ever have those weird coincidences- when they're thinking about something then something significant to what you were thinking about happens? Anyway:

I rewatched the film Donnie Darko yesterday, I haven't watched it in months- and today, still on a philosophical high from watching the film- I was reading about the film, and thinking about it- and I thought how something should happen to get the film more recognition- and I remembered how Harry- the guy from aintitcool.com was obsessed in getting the film made. Then I was thinking they should re-release- because the UK didn't get a theatrical release. Then a few minutes later I went on to aintitcool.com and it's the first article on the list- Donnie Darko re-release!

Stuff like this has happened to me before- like when I watch a relatively unknown film then a remake is announced. Creepy.

Well -ahem- another story about Saturday when I saw Genevieve speak at a home show, she was answering a question and said the word "about" only it came out "aboot" like it always does and I whispered to my friend "She sounds Canadian." and right after I said that she goes "'Aboot?' You can tell I'm not really from New York."

yah okay it was the first thing that popped into my head

I didn't say that you did, but when she says it, thats how it sounds.

I spent a summer there - in some sections they certainly do say it

How long would Different Strokes have lasted if Gary Coleman were Canadian?
