I never understood this statistic.
Sure, that's the possibility for the one sperm and the one egg making the one you, but if it had been a different sperm or egg you still would have been born but maybe with different eye color or a weird nose.
Like, my existence may be cosmically unlikely but I still gorge myself on junk food and say the n word on the internet so...yeah, special lol
Perhaps to prevent Hitler, instead of travelling back in time and killed him or his parents, I could just spook his parents during sex and it would be a different kid.
What an amazing world that would be. It'd be something to be getting it on and suddenly have random people showing up, poking you and your lover with sticks and yelling, "BOOOOO, NOOO, LAME." Or maybe in the silence just after the deed, there'd be a huge round of applause.

I feel like this could be a pretty good short story but tbh I haven't actually slept for two days.
