Everybody walks past a thousand story ideas every day. The good writers are the ones who see five or six of them. Most people don't see any.

Comment preview: - **THIS IS NOT A FACT. Stop spreading this "lawsuit" rumor.** They are not a law firm. It is incredibly difficult to make money from lawsuits related to violent crime. Usually you only press criminal charges. Sometimes in very rare situations, lawsuits ar ....


Comment preview: Hopefully someone reads my comment all the way down here, but here it goes. My story of the biggest coincidence of my god damn life. I vacationed to Europe with my family back in 2003. While in London, we randomly met our good family friends from back home ....


Comment preview: I vacationed to Europe with my family back in 2003. While in London, we randomly met our good family friends from back home. We knew they were going to Europe but had no idea they were going to be in London at the same time. It was a huge coincidence becau ....


Comment preview: If tomorrow the Americas were to legalize drugs, the cartels would be fucked. Don't get me wrong, they would still exist, but it would be a quick slide into oblivion. There is a reason why criminal organizations prefer the drug trade; it is easy, profita ....


Comment preview: There is a reason that insanity wolf no longer means something actually insane. Courage wolf and insanity wolf coexisted in harmony as complementary aspects of 'boldness'. The former, represented boldness applied with discretion also known as courage. The ....


Comment preview: I think "The Great Monotheisms" promote psychotic behavior. I think Christianity is "tolerable" only because of the degree of secularity that's been forced down its throat. I think secularization of the areas in question when these topics come up will so ....


Comment preview: oh man I always shave my pits. Did it by coincidence one day (had a cut so had to cut the hair away to keep it out of the cut) and I noticed. no stink. no stink AT ALL. so I used the clippers on the other pit. once every two weeks 3 seconds to use the clip ....


Comment preview: In mid-1914, Archduke Ferdinand of Austria, his wife and the obligatory group of less important political figures and other random hangers-on that always accompanies a soon-to-be-assassinated fool, were cruising through the streets of Sarajevo in a (stupid ....


Comment preview: Their ideology is a mutated bastardized form of what actually once made this country prosperous. Remember, it used to be that a man without so much as a high school diploma could come here, get a job, have his wife stay at home, have 4 kids, send them to c ....


Comment preview: THIS. **Even if** every single other instance where things appeared to be copied from other work, the Lucatiel/Aslatiel scenes being shot in the exact same locations and with uncannily similar choreography and dialogue sequences, the Lovecraft quote, "mis ....


Comment preview: My Mom was fucking insane. I mean, she tried to kill me but before that ... My mom had a personal war against "barbarian" behavior. Because of this, she fell in love with English culture (think Victorian and Jane Austen novels. Her England was NOT set in r ....


Comment preview: >Microsoft is going after no-ip. Is this a coincidence? Do large corporations really want to kill free dynamic dns? What could the motives be? To be fair, I don't think Microsoft has any other ulterior or political motives here. As a security and malwar ....


Comment preview: I don't think it's a coincidence that replacing Cam Cameron was followed by a great postseason run. And I also think there is some truth to the notion that you can get hot at the right time. Flacco was monstrous in that 2013 postseason. As for the followin ....


Comment preview: It's a hilarious scene to be sure, but this just reinforces how chickens should not be part of a game that is played on this high of a level in my opinion. I don't care that it was a coincidence that will likely not appear again any time soon. It's the fac ....


Comment preview: >it's been 6 years and i still can't really date. it's kind of ruined my attitude towards women. i feel afraid of them now and it seems easier to just live my life then to make myself vulnerable to another tornado of anger. It gets better, man. I went ....


Comment preview: If you look at the number of users over the last couple of months or so, it's insane. Reddit has skyrocketed lately, after the whole Ellen Pao/the Fattening shitshow. I guess the whole "no such thing as bad news" thing has some weight. Although now that I ....


Comment preview: The actual story is insane with bad coincidences though. Black Hand member #1 throws grenade under Franz Ferdiand's car but it has a ten second delay and goes under the car behind him. Black Hand member #2 takes off while Black Hand member #1 takes a cyani ....


Comment preview: For just a second, let's pretend that they're the same kids. (I've seen this same theory between sandy hook and boston bombings where a woman is an "actress" in both). Let's pretend that the conspiritards are right and the government hired people to do mul ....


Comment preview: He was obviously framed. Here's why: >The shawl is patterned with Michaelmas daisies. Today the Christian feast of Michaelmas is archaic, but in Victorian times it was familiar as a quarter day, when rents and debts were due. >I discovered there were ....


Comment preview: You are incredibly right. I was about 9 when i saw Batman. Around 90 or 91. I thought it was brutal and terrifying. Very adult. It was originally an 18 certificate movie in the UK. By the time it came out for rental the bbfc had a shake up of content ratin ....


Comment preview: I think it is absolutely insane that anyone can watch the collapse of WTC7 and not see a controlled demolition. Okay, lets say that there is some other explanation, just for arguments sake. That being said, how the hell does saying "I don't know what happe ....


Comment preview: A little off topic, but TB mentioned that he doesn't think piracy has ever helped TV shows either. While I doubt piracy has helped much many American shows, it is what practically fuels the anime scene. Sure, I buy the blurays of a show I really loved (eve ....


Comment preview: its totally possible, but people get SO defensive when you suggest its a bad idea for most people. I understand its personally offensive in some regards, but its not just some coincidence that any time these relationships don't pan out, the younger party e ....


Comment preview: > Unless every last one of them gets put down like a sick animal, this will continue to happen. I disagree that we just need to unleash a wave of violence against people like IS. We have an ideological problem here with Islam in general. What's happeni ....


Comment preview: Bo and Walker we're probably just victims of guys trying to perpetuate myths. Each and every year players(and all other athletes all over the world, for that matter) only get bigger, stronger, and faster. This is a fact. You think it's a coincidence that e ....
