Pure. Creepy Ironicness!

Back to web proofing at work today. I've moved on to the Kitchen category and the Butchering sub-category. I have pulled up my next product to proof and compare the new and old sites. That product is the Single Hamburger Press. Andi comes over to ask me a question. She said she knows someone who wants to order our hamburger press, but a large quantity and was wondering if he would be able to get a discount. I stop in my tracks and ask her if she saw on our Google doc that that was the product I was working on. She said "no." I pointed to my computer screen and showed her what item I was working on. Our mouths both dropped in awe. We have 3600+ products pages on our website. How incredibly freaky that she would come up and ask me a totally random, and somewhat un-work related about the exact item out of 3600 that I'm working on. So weird!

Ironicness

A couple days ago, I had another weird case of irony. One of my Facebook friends posted needing help with a word game. You have 4 pictures, blank spaces for letters and letter options. You have to figure out what the word is that describes all 4 pictures using the letters. I'm usually pretty good at this game, and often can help people within seconds or a few minutes. My Facebook friend's answer was "French". The pictures were of French-tipped fingernails, a long loaf of bread, an arch (that looked like it would be somewhere in Europe), and someone painting.

After helping out with this answer, it put me in the mood to play a few rounds on my phone. I had a different version of the game, but it's the exact same concept. My VERY FIRST puzzle, the answer was France! I actually tried French first because all those letters were there, and the words have the same number of letters. When French wasn't right, I tried France, and that was right! What are the odds? That is just crazy!
