Saw a girl at a local coffee shop playing a guitar. I knew her but only as a bully in high school, who came back and apologized as an adult, but no real association. I stared hard at the guitar and said to her "that looks just like my mom's guitar", she says a guy named Richard gave it to her to learn on, and that was my older brother, and it WAS my mom's guitar. I told her if she ever was going to get rid of it I would like it back. Two years later I was visiting my sister and I see it in the corner, and I was like "is that mom's guitar" and she said she didn't know but a girl gave it to her to learn on. Never thought I would see it again.

#16 I don't see the coincidence here. Guy buys a house and meets a girl... was it 6 houses down from the one he bought? Did he still buy it?

"When I was in 8th grade (around 1990) my family moved from one part of Houston to another, but it meant totally new schools, new friends, new everything. So, my dad being the adorable clueless guy he was bought pens with my name and number on them. He thought my skater punk a*s was gonna pass out sparkly purple pens with my number on them to 'make friends.' Well, I thought they were so hilarious that I gave them out like crazy and had given them all out by like day 2. Well, flash forward about 15 years and I'm living in LA. I stop at a gas station in like Barstow on a weekend trip to Vegas with friends. There I am, standing at the urinal, mind wandering when I happen upon a purple sparkly pen on the floor. I think, there's no way, nudge it with my foot and sure enough it's one of those f*****g pens! There it was, my name and old phone number. What are the damn odds?!"
