1. Vonnegut called such accidents "granfalloons" . . .

Granfalloon: A proud but meaningless association of human beings.

"You're from Indiana? Well, I'm a Hoosier too!"

Not to be confused with "wampeter": an object around which the lives of many otherwise unrelated people may revolve. The Holy Grail would be a good example.

4. This guy walks in to an Irish pub

there are two fellows at the bar and one says to the other "Your from Boston? I'm from Boston! Toast!" and the have a drink and the guy says "You grew up on South Boston? I grew up in South Boston!" and they toast and have another drink. Then the guy says "You went to St. Peter's? I went to St. Peter's! Cheers!" and they toast and have another drink. The guy says "You played little league at Moakley park? I played at Moakley park! Cheers!" and another drink and then "you lived on Elm street? I lived on Elm Street! Cheers!" and another drink.

So they are starting to get a little rowdy and the guy who came in asks the bartender what's going on, the bartender says "Ah nothing, just the O'Malley twins getting drunk again."
