Scott Adams on Too Many Coincidences:

"Have you ever noticed that coincidences come in clusters? Every now and then I hit a cluster of coincidences that make me question my delusions about reality. I’m tempted to concoct an entirely new set of delusions just to make it all square up.

"My current view of reality is that I’m in a coma someplace and this apparent reality is my dream. It’s not so crazy if you compare it to the alternative explanation that I really did become one of the top selling cartoonists of all time with no experience whatsoever. Or that my first two books were both #1 New York Times best sellers, and I’ve now authored more books than I’ve actually read. And those two examples aren’t even the most unlikely ones. The “good ones” are so bizarre that I generally don’t share them anymore because no one believes me when I do."

And here I am stalking Scott in his comment section:

i'd like to call coincidences as "serendipity." same principle. but serendipity has more "sponge-bath" quality. coincidences can be good or bad. serendipity means "fortunate discovery" by accident. ergo, serendipity = lucky = sponge-bath in your favorite spot. [ more ]

I'm such a troll.
