kickahaSo we're watching BSG tonight, when ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
ginkgo busts out with what has to be one of the freakiest bits of pattern recognition I've seen in a long time.
We're about 1/4 of the way through the show, when she says "They're quoting U2." "WHAT?" "They're quoting U2! Well, actually, they're using quotes from a U2 cover of a Bob Dylan song." "Uh-huh." "Seriously! Google it!" "Which lines?" "'No reason to get excited', and 'There's too much confusion'." "Hon, those are pretty common sentences." "No, really!"
So I google it.
Bob Dylan _All Along the Watchtower_
At this point, I'm kind of thinking "Okay, this is funny, but..." so I leave the page with the lyrics up.
Not 30 seconds later, I hear... "There must be some way out of here..."
I'm keeping the page up for the rest of the episode.
(TWO LINES and she nailed it. TWO!)
