My four sisters and I went to a small high school where the mascot was a frog. My parents’ house is drowning in decorative frogs. They brought it on themselves tbh and even started collecting them. I counted one time when I was home and there were over 75 on the first floor alone.

I also saw one where a girl said she once said she liked owls as a child, and now every gift from a family member involves owls. 

"Thinking about how my sister’s college friend was nicknamed “Burgers” cause one time he talked about grilling burgers too enthusiastically. You have to be careful"

It got me thinking about how I'd DEFINITELY be the one to call Burgers Burgers bc he was too excited about Burgers. And it then reminded me that something similar has happened to me.

I went shopping with my friend one day, and had on a leopard sweatshirt. She noted it but that's as far as it went. Then, a week or so later, she came over and I was showing her — purely by coincidence — a new leopard top I got. (very different items.) and now... in her mind, i LOVE leopard. And whenever there's a chance for her to point out how much I LOVE leopard, she will. Animal print option avail? "YOU'LL LOVE THIS — LEOPARD!" I don't even like leopard! It was just a coincidence! 

Anyway, Leopard now haunts me and I purposefully avoid it. Has anything like this ever happened to you?

When a nickname or character trait follows you...
