The last two girls I dated were both half-white and half-Mexican. They look nothing alike whatsoever.

I have no idea if that's threadworthy, but it's the first thing that popped into my head. I have no doubt there are many others.

My paternal grandmother, grandfather and I were all born on the same day.

I thought this was no big deal growing up, which goes to show you how malleable kids are.

Are you perhaps living in a Robert Heinlein short story?

My mother and her first daughter share a birthday. I share a birthday with a close cousin. My sister shares a birthday with my sister. My father's children have birthdays of 7/3 and 7/9, while he was born on 7/15.

I have a cousin who is ~3 years younger than me who went to college in upstate New York, I live in Ohio. One night a few years ago my roommate and I were driving somewhere but we needed to stop for gas. For some completely unexplained reason my cousin was hanging out at a gas station near the OSU campus trying to get somebody over 21 to buy her beer. So I did, but whatever it was that I was going to with my roommate was important so I only saw her for like 3 minutes and didn't see her again for like 3 years. It's really a much better story told from her point of view, but it's the best I can do.

One of my friends/co-workers is a year younger than me. I don't ever recall meeting her until she started working at my company 4 years ago. So we realized all of this after the fact.

We both grew up the same city outside Chicago but went to different schools. We both played water polo and her boyfriend at the time and I were both goalies for rival high schools. We then went to the same college in St Louis with the same major. I was in one class with her senior year, but I never went and just turned my homework in to the professor's office. So the only time she ever heard my name was when the professor was trying to pass back homework to a seemingly non-existant student. Not only do we work together now in LA, but my wife and I just bought a townhouse, and through our search the one we loved and ended up buying is in the same complex she lives in.

Leap Year Day is a recognized holiday?

In 8th grade, the day before Spring break I got suspended for a half-day for fighting. The Dean called my parents in to talk about my bad behavior and they took me home.

2 days later at Moon Palace in Cancun, Mexico, I am walking around with my Mom when we run into the aforementioned Dean of Students.

Awkward.
