I are askeered.

So we're watching BSG tonight, when [livejournal.com profile] 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!)
