Variation: You are reading a news article online about a chain murderer. The murders have all taken place in the city you are currently living in, but it's a big city, and you aren't worried...until you realize the victims described are all your age, race, gender, and body type. Then you click on a follow-up article, which states the murders have all happened in your county.
