Ever stop and think about how much a single coincidence impacts the rest of your life?

For example, being bored and looking up "World of Warcraft parodies" and "World of Warcraft PvP" on YouTube pretty much determined my entire taste in music for the past (almost) 10 years

This video got me into metal: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ulkQVtlcAHk

..and made me love warriors, which led me to eventually find this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6zyrTlaDs-E

...which led me to find In Flames: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3NqYMsaJgeo

...which led me to find Scar Symmetry: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gQZwsXnDQJc

...and now, for the past 5-or-so years, I've been in love with a vocal style I never thought I could possibly like: death growls.

Met my now-best friend at a concert

Crazy how coincidence pretty much determines our lives

"wow + beer = madness!!!!!!!!!!!!!" was a video of 2 blood elves stacking beer kegs so high that they couldn't see the ground anymore.. thanks to this video, I love power metal (haven't been able to find the video for years, so here's the song that was playing): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FOHgrwU67Jw

I looked for a speed run of Super Metroid about 8 years ago.

I found a Let's Player playing a hack of Super Metroid and thought it was pretty funny.

About a year later I decided to find that Let's Player again and watch his stuff. One of the games he played was 'Super Marisa World'. It's a Touhou fan game in case you don't know.

I got curious and discovered Touhou through this. Cut to about 6 years later, my raging Touhou fanboy in me finally burnt out...however something that had been a big inspiration for Touhou was now getting an anime.

I am now a Jojo's Bizarre Adventure fanboy....because I looked up Super Metroid speed run on Youtube.
