They were one day apart, so not a true synchronicity, but close enough.
A remarkable Synchronicity, with both bearing today as publication date, found by Andréa, who asks if it could be that Scott Hilburn and Mark Parisi are the same person. Also noted by zbicyclist, Targuman, Boise Ed, and maybe others!


The overlap of details is unusual, but then again notice things like whether the nationalities are given as proper-adjectives or nouns.

Peter asks “How many wars? I’m pretty sure it’s none.”
The editors also had an internal debate over whether the hell is really that of “being stuck in one comic strip forever,” or that of “being stuck in one unending present, forever.” We booted the debate over to you.


Both put by Andréa in the comments, and the second one was also submitted by Pete.

Whatever you prefer to call the day, what does it or this picture have to do with disco?

From Andréa, for whom it was also an Oy, and from Findus.

Also from mitch4, who comments that it goes with the classic joke punch line: “We needed the eggs”!

From CaroZ, who says “I believe I am using the LOL doctrine correctly.” We think so, but would remark every doctrine needs wiggle room.
