This happens to me a lot—I’m glad it’s not just me. I felt the same way after learning about floaters (and also felt relieved that my eyes weren’t permanently scarred).

Somewhat related: Littlewood’s law codifies what I’ve said before: “People should be amazed more coincidences don’t happen to them.” We just don’t understand the cardinality of the sets of ‘all possible coincidences’ and ‘all events perceived.’”
