Small world

Small world

Does anyone on here find that everyone seems to know everyone else you know, in some way, as if everyone's linked?

Like you meet someone for the first time, someone that you've never heard of before, and it turns out they know people you know!

This keeps happening all the time with me, it's weird!!!

Yeah tends to happen to me offten to

All the time m8 , its mad how much of a small world it is , getting introduced to a complete strager who seems to know loads of the people you know but have never met them b4 lol !!!

Like yesterday, i found out that one of my mates is good mates with my next door neighbour

I met a cousin I never knew I had at a party a few weeks ago, its a really small world indeed!

That's exactly what I'm on about

You're only 8 people away from knowing everyone on the planet apparently


I started talking to this bloke at Habit, turned out he met my sisters fiance when he was down in London...and theres 8 million people down there

When i worked at Orange I dealt with this guy who knew the mum of my best mate from when I was about 7...but he lived in the Highlands of Scotland and my mate lived in South East England :spangled:

My favourite one is when I went to WaxOn ages ago, my flatmate introduced to his mate Ben. The conversation went

Me: Where are you from?
Ben: Scotland?
Me: me too, Where abouts?
Ben : Aberdeen
Me: Me too, where abouts?
Ben: Peterhead?
Me: Me too, which school did you go to?
Ben: Mintlaw?
Me: Me too

didnt know him at school at all

@ Si

At last Evolve i bumped into a guy who i hadnt seen since we were in nursery (god knows how i even remembered him -last time i saw him he was sat dressed as a shepherd in the nativity play) turns out he is good mates with a guy off here!

yeah, this happens to ness more than me like, we were at his work party and got chatting to this lad who's sister lives across the street from us, to prove it, he rang her and she read our car reg out

he has some mint examples of this, but i think its more funny when people go "EESH are you loopyloosy off the board"

its mad.

haha aye that always freaks me out a bit, especially if its someone who's name you dont recognize. I must admit, Ive done it a few times like

Went to Uni in Leicester with a lad called Darren (originally from Worcester)- when we finished he moved to leeds and i moved to Newcastle.

Scoot forward 2 years, First IT Job, working with Vandenburg, Speaking to Darren via email, tells me he's moved into a flat with this geordie lad who's a good laugh, apparently they went out that weekend and Darren pulled some lass and couldn't wait to get back to tell his new flat mate he's finally got his 'brown wings'

At this point The Van leans over and says his mate has just moved to Leeds and got a flat with a southern lad and they'd been out that weekend on lash, he then tells me this new flat mate only went a pulled some stinker and kicked her back doors in!

Me : "err... what? is this lad called Darren?"
Van : "err.. yeah"



Our 2 mates had got a flat together in leeds without knowing each other - bonkers.

Quality!!

Yeah thats what I heard, I think its bullshit though, otherwise I would have located Lorraine Kelly and stabbed her in the face by now.

thats always a memorable day

i like the way people suprise you, theres this guy at work that i've just started talking to and hes well into electro and house, i just never expected it, cause he goes to bambu every tiime he goes out.

Socialising is mint like

It's weird how i found you know alot of ppl i kno

yeah totally

to be honest i cant see this being true , can you i mean do the maths (not that i want to/or prob could ha ha) but i thionk thats a stretching theory

I can definitely see how its true


Just think how many people you know
how many people they know
how many people they know
how many people they know
how many people they know
how many people they know
how many people they know
how many people they know

just say for arguements sake that everyone knows 60 people

i think you'd probably work it out by 60 to the power of 8, could be wrong

there are duplicates because you share friends but i still reckon its not far from the truth.

Obviously there are exceptions to the rule i.e. sad cunts like you but cool cats like me make up for it
