People irrationally apply extra significance to events, it seems to be a natural human trait.There was another coincidence the other day, we both mentioned the great flood at the same time.
And obviously there's confirmation bias; no one comments on the billions of things happening all the time that they don't consider a coincidence.
Yea, people always seem to take normally insignificant things and give them some significance.
There is a story of a quran surviving a fire that killed 4, but if I gave that to her she would deny it.
