Suppose you want to Tickle Nikhil's Pickle For Only A Nickel. In that case, you must follow these instructions: If you ever find yourself in the universe of Dora the Explorer, if you have a nickel in your pocket, go to any person named Nikhil, and give them said nickel.

you know what they say about nickels and strange occurences

This is a phrase based on the iconic Doofenshmirtz phrase, "Wow, if I had a nickel for the every time I was doomed by a puppet, I'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice, right?" The phrase is not only a shortening of the phrase, but makes it easy to add to a conversation without jumpcutting to "haha funny reference".

Dude, this girl fell in love with me, dumped me, forgot she dated me, fell in love with me again, and dumped me AGAIN! Sigh, you know what they say about nickels and strange occurences...
