Depth?
Depth in: "I just wanna say, one of the first threads I ever read on the Escapist (maybe a year ago?) was a kid saying basically the EXACT same thing. Even some of the wording is similar, and the responses are (rightfully) nearly identical. Weird."? Oh dear, oh dear...
I will point out the silliness of it for you;
1. "One of the first" - it wasn't even the first. If there was something odd, unique or out of place, it being the first post you ever read and this being the second some time later could possibly be interesting. It being one of the first maybe and this being some random date later? No. The human brain is too wishy washy for that. It's not unlike people who use dates kind of close to a disaster as proof for their conspiracy beliefs. Example: "Well, this happened around this day, and this person died near that day almost a year ago, so it must be related!"
2. "Maybe a year or two ago" - that is a massive difference in dates, further adding to the point above.
3. "
Basically the EXACT [sic] same thing" - it was kind of perfect? It was a little exact? It was sort of 100%? Doesn't work.
4. "Nearly" - two things being nearly the same in a world of seven billion people is weird to you? How... odd [/irony].
One cannot put forth a notion in a free world and expect it to be immune from critique, hun. Critique does not mean insult, either. I'm simply showing you my perceived errors in your idea as my education would see them.
