Hivemind is when two or more
people come to the same thought at the same time because of the same circumstances but do not know each other beforehand (i.e. it cannot be an inside
joke). This usually happens on
internet message boards, and is especially noticeable when the thought reached is not a meme. The name is reflective of insects who act in unison with their hive (or nest) mates.
