I’m sure it looks incredible from your point of view. But take a peak from my perspective:

1) someone writes something about lions (100% chance to happen, because someone is writing something all the time)

2) someone else quotes a popular book from a renowned author about the topic - nothing out of the ordinary

3) you, one of the thousands of readers of the quote mentioned above, started reading the same popular book today.

Also, the first two happen across hundreds of posts daily on hacker news. Statistically it is not that exceptional.

It still freaks me out whenever something similar happens to me :)

Yes, out of the uncountable unlikely coincidences, some are bound to happen. The comment was mostly a joke. Still, the evidence keeps piling up - that you're all just agents in a humorous world that revolves around me :)
Nah dude, it's me, I'm the center and comments like yours are just trying to cast doubt in my mind by pretending all you NPCs have the same thougt so it must be delusion... Take that for a response, Matrix! :)
I love it when the NPCs in my life story become half-sentient to make my day a bit better.
