This may sound like a stupid revelation to you, but I really used to hate how whenever you read a story or watched a movie or something, there is almost always something that happens that's too good to be true to keep the story going. Like someone's going about their business in a mall or something in New York, and they never go there, and someone that they haven't seen in years who lives on the other side of the world happens to be there and bam, your story starts to unfold. It just seems so unlikely! Now, onto the revelation: without those one-in-a-million things "constantly" happening in entertainment media, we'd never have any entertainment media that was fiction. The stories most people read are full of those "what're the odds" moments. And so, even though it bugs me, I guess I can let it go.
