Okay, so the GS version of this seemed pretty popular in the Defendant's Lobby, and I did a search and found that there wasn't a GK/AAI version in the Prosecutor's Lobby. If my search was somehow full of fail, and there already is one of these here (or something that is too similar), feel free to lock this topic.

So anyway, to start off, last night at work, I noticed that the company that makes one of the clock-in machines is called Amano.

Spoiler: Case 2
I was in Kohl's, waiting for my mom to finish looking at the ten billionth pair of shoes, when I decided to whip out AAI. So I begin playing, then I get to the part where you have to pick what Hicks' real cause of death was, Asphyxiation, Poisoning, or Free Fall. The whole time, there's been music playing over the PA in Kohl's. Just as I reach this point, the song "Free Falling" by Tom Petty came on. 'Twas an awesome moment indeed.

I just saw an AOL news headline that started with the words "Plane Scare Diplomat". It reminded me of cases 2 and 5.

iFly Airlines, I have to way I was kinda shocked upon seeing that becuase a friend of mine whom I talk to a bit in Skype (whom is from another forum) Uses the username iFly

Or course he had the name before AAI came out in the states, I actually went and showed him an image of it as well and he got a bit of a kick from it.

I was walking my dog they other day and behind my neighbours fence, there was not the enormous German Shepard whose bark is so loud it scares the living shit out of me everytime we walk past, but a brown Husky dog. I was like ".....LANG???". So I call this dog Shi-long Lang now even though his name is Rocky. I'm hoping to secretly change his name. But it's kind of sad becuase the German Shepard was aparently put down. I loved him.

My sister did her 'happy dance' for me the other day, It looked suspiciously like Mike Meekins' blue badger...movement. I'm not sure if she copied it though..

When I was on the bus yesterday, I saw a guy walking on the street. At first, I thought his haircut looked like Phoenix', but upon closer inspection, it was almost exactly like Shi-Long Lang's.

Where exactly? What street/district/town/city? XD I HAVE to know.

By the way, when I found out that one of the course offerings in our university was simply entitled "Logic"...yeah, um, never mind. XD

The only reason I took philosophy this year was becuase someone told me that it was about logic and I wanted to be like Edgey.
Lol, Nah Jokes, The reason was becuase I wanted to be like Dumbledore...you know...."Philosopher's Stone" (Oh wait, In America they named it "Sorcerer's Stone"). *Grrrriiiinnn*

My friend just told me about her subway trip back home from work. A man sat opposite to her and kept staring at her. Then he put his hand inside his jacket and... pulled out a mirror. A red hand-mirror.
My friend, who hasn't yet played AAI, was just utterly "WTF" and wondered why I was laughing my ass off when she told this.

In my Critical Thinking class yesterday (which is basically teaching us how to construct proper, coherent arguments), my teacher declared "oh, and I'm going to teach you some LOGIC as well!"

I just about had an embolism XD

In school, I saw someone scream 'LISTEN TO MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!' and they acted similar to Ron DeLite. Except for the hair going out, of course.

Imagine this without the hair going haywire. Appearance-wise, they looked nothing like him, but action-wise, they were spot-on.

Two words:
Spoiler:
Swiss Rolls. :keylady:
I will never again be able to pass by a box of Ho-Hos in the grocery store without cracking a smile (and sighing with relief that they don't cost $6 for a pack of two).


Also, the word "Eureka!" tends to pop up a lot for me. I've never been so proud to be a Californian (we've got the best state motto ever~).

Along the morning commute to my college, next to the road there are long stretches of crop fields that use seeds from this excellent company.
Of course, there are small signs stuck in the ground every few miles proclaiming the wonderful name. I often enjoy pointing each one out as it passes and shouting the catchphrase out loud. :think:

I was in the car on my way to downtown, and I suddenly noticed a sign that read '"ErgoLogic". I mean, how AWESOME is that? But for some reason, I have a suspicion that it's some kind of aerobic, yoga type of thing. I'm pretty sure I saw some yoga poses on the sign. :yuusaku:

I don't know if this counts, as this is kind of the opposite. But before I played AAI, there was a character from the TV show LOST called Daniel Faraday. So when I started playing AAI I couldn't not associate any of the Faradays with the LOST character.

Like I said, that's kind of the reverse of the rest of the topic, but it's the closest I've got! :will:

I noticed two of the main characters in the game are connected to science by their name. Kay Faraday, after American electricity scientist Michael Faraday, and, surprisingly, Miles Edgeworth. The Kuiper belt is a region in our solar system that goes from Neptune's orbit (30 Astronomical Units from the sun) to about 50 AU. This cosmic region is also referred to as the Edgeworth-Kuiper belt.
