<RedSnifit> So, a few years back, when I used to use AIM, I added this guy as a buddy
<RedSnifit> Now, he's one of the few people who still goes online every once in a while, yet I didn't remember who he was or if I've ever talked to him
<RedSnifit> Today, I found out that this person was Bitmap

Of course, I have a few ideas as to how this came to be, but I suppose that would only detract from its apparent incredibility.


...So, yeah, this is the part where you share your stories of amazing coincidences as well.

I remember years ago browsing world-of-nintendo.com, and realizing that the contributor for some Zelda II glitches was Rydain

Small world isn't it. Or in this case: Small internet!

You were always on my friend's list as well. But I have not seen you online in like a good long while, even before I joined Jul.

Then today I got home and wahlah. There you are, IMing me.

I almost forgot you were on my buddy list. Heh.

I noticed there was a user named Adamant commenting on virtual console reviews on http://vc.nintendolife.com
I saw there was a user named jigglysaint on the angryvideogamenerd's forum

I was a pretty active user on both those sites so that was pretty coincidental.

Then I realized after a long time that Shroomy had made this music video that a ton of people watched and quoted in my school called Mario Twins. The music is by Group X and they have other flash videos that people made which are also widely recognized in the internet world.(bang bang bang, schfifty five??)

ah! I couldn't think of anything until I read this, the same thing happened over here. the kids sure loved going 'shiggidy shiggidy schwa'. it was quite a while until I learned that shroomy had made the video.

I really haven't had many coincidences on the internet, aside from occasionally seeing a Jul member in a game/on another site. I have, however, found someone I went to school with playing TF2, along with someone else I know. I tried to get one to visit Jul and possibly join, and they turned the offer down.

Aww, no new member for us

I tried to get someone I knew at school to join I2, but he only made like 3 posts. I also brought in someone I met at another board, who became a rather prominent member of Acmlm's and Jul

MetalMan88 was a friend of a friend of mine who also was on Acmlm's board, I guess. Does that count?
