My in game wife and i discovered that we have the same birthday. we don't know each other IRL.

Does anyone else have a crazy coincidence?
Whis [1530096]
Yes! I have one. So I'm Canadian and live in PEI. I have a faction mate that's also Canadian and lives in Alberta. So basically opposite sides of the country. We discovered a while back that his wife's cousin (maybe sister I can't quite recall) lives less than 15 minutes away from me irl.

I was researching crazy coincidences for an IRL project and then I saw this thread.

Crazy coincidenseption?

The universe is swimming with coincidence - we only see the ones that jump out at us.

Besides, the odds of having the same bday as your in-game wife are 1/365 - not bad compared to the lottery.

Was talking to bogie about staff sh*t then realised he was actually community manager. What a crazy coincidence.

I went to hospital for a spider bite when I was younger, got shacked with a kid who had the same first name, day, and month of birth as me, sadly a year younger. Yes we switched beds and no they didn't think that was funny.

During the Miss/Mr Torn event one year, there was this guy who claimed to be the same age as me and looked exactly like me in male form. He could've passed for my twin. Tbh, it was so freaky it made me wonder.

I have this crazy thing where I buy something from someone's bazaar and they get mugged seconds later its like someone is stalking my purchases with how often it happens!
Richard [1623235]
I once bought quite a few items from this guys bazaar, who then got mugged seconds later by ‘someone’.
I told him it was a crazy coincidence but didn’t believe me, hopefully you guys will


EDIT: Nvm the above comment says the same lmao!!

That is a complicating factor. In addition, more people are born on weekdays (because doctors don't like working on weekends) and more people are born July-October...because what else are you going to do in the winter but lie around and play hide-the-submarine. If you were to attempt this as a real world exercise you'd need a real world mathematician...not some barely numerate keyboard-jockey looking things up on Google.
