Grammar usage notes
Used to express a time when B (the second action) is not an everyday occurrence, or is not normal. The subject of both phrases should be the same.
Like lou1sb points out the subject should be the same in both phrases AND the subject is usually a third person subject (彼、木村さん、社長、太郎 etc.).
AなりB
B － すでに起きた事
自分のことは意外性じゃない
