When serving somebody, I always end it by saying "Here's your change/card and we'll just get your receipt..." while the latter's printing. During one transaction, the printer didn't start printing, so I said "... whenever the printer's ready." in this really menacing voice. A split second later, the printer printed the receipt really fast, and then behaved all day. It even printed the gift cards properly instead of squint. It fears me.Â
My sister was trying to annoy me the whole day. Earlier, when I was walking down a path, I knew she was a couple of meters behind me, but didn't know what she was doing. The book I was holding slipped from my hands and fell, so I bent down and picked it up. I heard a kind of thump thump just in front of me. I looked up and saw a ball bouncing further down the path, looked behind and saw my sister running away to the opposite direction. My guess was she threw the ball towards me, but missed when I picked my book.
That's not the end of it. I quickly hurried to the ball and picked it up. My sister had gone pretty far by then so I didn't think I'd hit her if I threw the ball. I still did. With all my might.

When I logged into LiveJournal, what do I find but the information that LittleKuriboh has laid hands on some high-quality Season Zero RAWs and has even made a pilot episode? "Wanna play a game? First one to die loses!" Pervy psycho grandpa, psuedo-gay Yugi and Psychotic Evil Yami? AWESOME.
It is not today and I am not entirely sure if it counts as awesome but here goes.
When I moved to my former apartment my friend, lets call her E, helped me unpack. E and I met the first time in high school. As it often goes with packing and unpacking we got stuck looking at stuff instead of doing anything useful. She was browsing my photo album and commented on the pictures and I told her who, what and where they were of.
E: "Two girls by a pool."
Me: "Nah, it is just of the pool, the girls just happened to pass by. We were at Skara in sixth grade and I wanted to take pictures of it."
E: "That girl looks just like my friend..
And that looks just like me!"
Me: "What a funny coincidence."
E: "No, look. It is me, I had a swimsuit just like that and my friend had that kind of swimsuit too."
Me: So you visited Skara in the sixth grade too? And I managed to take pictures of you? That is such a coincidence. It is totally awesome."
E: "Yeah, except I was there in the fifth grade."
Me: *Thinks.* "Thinking about it, it was the fifth grade. After all, the photos afterwards are of the fifth grade graduation."
So that is my awesome story. I took pictures of her by coincidence and we never spoke or even thought about each other. But we became friends six years later and have been great friends ever since.
similar to nom's story, though it didn't happen today, sometime in middle school I randomly became friends with a guy who I took taekwondo classes with, and then later on when I was at my house one christmas and we were watching old family videos, we were watching one where I was in a preschool christmas play (as one of the wise men), and we look at the kid playing the manger's owner and we're like "...wait, is that [friend]?"
turns out that even though we'd never went to any other school together / thought we'd seen each other ever before, we went to preschool together. :V
