As employees arrive this morning, they're being told that Stormfront is out of business, they should go home, and that it isn't an april fools joke.Ct4ul4u (talk)16:58, 1 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
As a sidenote to this, former Stormfront employee David Maxwell has taken up a teaching position at College of Marin as the head teacher of Video Game Design; I'm in his advanced class as we speak.--Zhane Masaki (talk)23:56, 6 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
technically not a coincidence, as they are both using "storm front" in their names, and a storm front is an appropriate image for a multitude of otherwise unrelated entities: action video games, radical political organizations, military campaigns, etc. a coincidence would be if both were called "sprightblevers" or "gimmagobs", with both coming up with the name independently.Mercurywoodrose (talk)20:29, 26 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
It is a coincidence because there is no connection, coordination or shared causation between the two instances of the name being chosen. If two people choose to wear the same t-shirt in the same place at the same time without some sort of connection (such as it being a uniform of a group they're both representing at that time), it is merely a coincidence. It doesn't stop being one because the t-shirt happened to be a good fit or style for each person individually. A coincidence does not have to be remarkable, uncanny, or involve a non sequitur.
On a side note, nothing objectively makes Stormfront a good name for anything, unless it's related to weather. On which grounds I wouldn't have said it was a particularly obvious name for either a hate forum, or a game developer. Not that you mentioned either in your examples.
