Perhaps they ARE people that you forgot....like maybe you were a baby when you saw them before....or maybe its like the dude that worked at the 7-11 where I used to live or maybe theyre just people that you knoew from like a thousand years ago kept in your genetic memory...in your DNA...okay...I'll shut up now before I kill another thread!
A talking koala? Oh please. They do have sharp claws, that's why you only go near them in a secure environment like the zoo or places like that. If you don't know how to pick up a koala, you don't. They may look cute, which they are, but they frighten easily and would act accordingly so should be admired from afar. They are, in a sense, a wild animal.
I've heard that when that happends that it's someone from a past life , the same as meeting someone on the street and feeling like you know them even though it's your first time meeting.
not as bad as drop bears... gosh, i've met a lot of ppl in past lives then!!! hehe anyway good point, i do believe i've heard that somewhere before also...
