The Prophecy: The Chosen One At The Dentist

8 years ago, I made an appointment at my dentist and under "what do you wish to be called?" I wrote "The Chosen One" and forgot about it. Today, I overheard the receptionist say: "Please let the doctor know The Chosen One is here." They've been using it this whole time.

This image is a screenshot of a verified social media post from Dan Wilbur sharing a funny prank story. Eight years prior, when filling out a new patient form at a dentist office, he was asked what he preferred to be called, and jokingly wrote 'The Chosen One', then completely forgot about the joke. When he returned for an appointment years later, he overheard the receptionist inform the dentist that 'The Chosen One is here', revealing that the dentist office has used his silly preferred nickname for him the entire eight years. The joke plays on the popular 'Chosen One' prophecy trope from media like Star Wars, with the original repost calling this a fulfilled prophecy.

The original story was posted as a tweet by verified user Dan Wilbur on Twitter/X, then it was reposted to 9GAG with the original title 'The prophecy was fulfilled', and has since spread as a viral funny story across multiple social media platforms.
