circumstantial simultaneity

The idea that the entirety of history and existence is a series of repeated events; nothing that happens is new. The idea implies events are connected circumstantially through their meaning, and from a temporally external frame of reference, happen at the same time. The term was coined by Andrew Hussie in his webcomic Homestuck.
Alice: I broke my wrist last week after slipping on an acorn. Didn't that same thing happen to you?
Bob: Indeed. It's wondrous how rampant circumstantial simultaneity is throughout the universe.

exscream circumstances

Can refer to either:
(1) Conditions so frustrating/stressful/frightening that you cannot help shrieking in terror or exasperation, or
(2) A situation where you are obliged (or feel free!) to holler at your former lover/spouse.
Against my better judgement, I took a middle-aged alcoholic dude to see his former girlfriend about the possibility of his moving back in with her. She was visibly annoyed at the encounter and even seemed somewhat put out with **me** for even having brought that deadbeat to her house in the first place, so I treaded super-lightly, gently explaining to her that the guy had merely asked me for a ride there ("I know nothing about this matter, Ma'am; I'm just the driver."); I could clearly see that these were definitely exscream circumstances.
