The Strange Coincidences Archive

Whilst waiting for a doctor’s appointment outside as the surgery wasn’t open for a further 15 minutes, I turned my attention to the carpark opposite to amuse myself. I thought of the random number 681 to see if I could spot it on any car licence plates on the many parked cars there, to pass the time. There wasn’t one. Then, just as the Doctors was opening its doors, a solitary car pulled into the only available empty car space – it had the number 681!

Over my winter break in December 2005, my boyfriend and I decided to play the game Guess Who?. (pictured here: http://www.hasbro.com/common/images/products/0480014fb57e_main200.jpg)
My boyfriend’s name is Sam Herman. (this is important!) Before starting the game, I sorted through the cards to make sure they were all there. Unfortunately, two of the cards had been chewed by my dog and we couldn’t use them. The strange/coincidental thing: the two cards were the Sam card and the Herman card. Remember, my boyfriend’s name is Sam Herman. I thought that was SO weird.

On day walking through a parking lot on my way to do some shopping ( this was befroe christmas), I discovered two $5 bills wrapped up together. I continued into the shop to do my shopping, and contemplated what I should do with my new found wealth. On the way out I decided to drop the money into a Salvation Army bucket, do a good deed and feel good about it.

The next day I’m at work and walking past a display case I notice somethign under it. I reach down and pull out a crumpled $20 bill. I immediately contemplated what charity I should donate it to in order to receive a $50 bill the next day!! I believe in good karma.

my brother gets really annoyed eith me somtimes coz i always left my bedroom at the same time he was having a pee, he would always leave the door open so i could see his back coz my room is adjacent to the bathroom, he thought i did it on purpose, i never did though

and last week when i was in my room, i wanted to go to the the toilet, but kept putting it off coz i was looking on here and ddnt want to stop, and finally i decided just to get up, iopened my door there was brother just about to come in scared me coz i was reading about coincidences which also scare me.

last night i had an urge to look at time it 22:22. 22secs i dont think much of that coz i thought im just looking for coicidences but just before when i was looking out of my window to see 4 cats fighting i wanted to look at the time even though i looked about 5 minutes before and it was exactly 11:11. 11secs.

I only just discovered this site after christmas and for christimas i got a digital wall clock which uptil then i just had one with hands, so whenever i read something on here it always refers to a digital clock, which if i found this site before christmas i would just look up and see a the hannds of a clock not a digital, if ya kow what i mean email me

my mum is always worried that people will see her recycling bottles which really annoys me coz i dont know what the fuss is about. so when we looked outside noone was on the street, so when left across the estate we live, loadsa ppl came to their doorsteps as if to know my mum didnt want to be seen.

please email me to tell me anymore sites about coincidences, synchronicity and providence thanks

I knew I should never have mentioned whilst shopping on Christmas Eve that we hadn’t had any bother with our ornamental tree lights in recent years. They say things happen in threes and this seemed to be a sinister triger for a series of annoying festive events. Firstly, when we came home and I pluged the tree lights in they promptly failed. I spent the next half hour trying to get the lights to work again. Then the turkey my mother had prepared and placed in the oven for Christmas Day started cooking at 9pm on Christmas Eve instead of 9am the next morning. My mother forgot that the oven only has a 12 hour timer. She had to continue cooking the turkey until 2am. Then at 6am, the battery in the smoke alarm went flat and the alarm started chirping.

I was on a walking holiday in the Spainish Pyrenees, earlier this year, taking many photographs of the wildlife and nature that I’d come across along the way,
When, one day, I came across a strange paw print that I didn’t recognise…
I got my camera out in order to take a picture, to use at a later date to research what animal had left the print, but was annoyed to find I had no battery.
I decided to walk on when something shiney caught my eye about 10 paces along the track, Upon investigation it turned out to be an old button with exactly the same paw print embossed upon it that I had just inspected,
BTW… later, using the button, I discovered that the print belonged to the extremely rare Iberian Lynx

I was watching Ready Steady Cook last night when i thought i wondered ’‘what would be like if Carl (a workmate at my work place who is a chef) was on it and i just sat there thinkin bout it. hen the next day he came to work with a bag of food and said ’‘let’s play ready steady cook’‘coz we knew it was going to be a quiet day at our workplace. which is a cafe.

Me again, A workmate at work wanted to know the deaths of 2005, in the list i saw Scotty from star trek, but anyway i was reading the coincidences on this site in order so i stopped coz i had to go to work, so while on the bus to work i read the list of deaths as i said Scotty was there so i gave him the list, so when i got home i came back to this site and read the next coincidence which was about someone talkin about scotty, is this finding a coincidence or is it actually a coincidence

i was reading a book, which i sorta got bored of so i put it down for a few days, in these few days i read this fact, which i lookedf up and read all about so i knew about it, then a few days later i picked up my book which mentioned this fact but didnt explain it, but i already knew, this has happened alot.

I was listening to a co-worker talking to another about how she used to have a cat named Shakespeare. I’m involved in theatre and have done some Shakespeare so the comment was noteworthy, and I went on about my day. Within 30 minutes my friend in NYC calls to tell me about his audition, and then states, “by the way, I’m currently petting a cat, whose name is Shakespeare”. I nearly dropped the phone.
