Have you ever had a number curse?

[Rubywolf]

You mean like a "I know this passage" curse when reading a book for the first time, or recognizing places you've never been to? whichever one, i agree.

That happens to me a lot. it's probably because long ago, I might have read that book. But, I doubt it.

[Dragon Writer]

when that happens to me, the worst part is usually that it happens right in the MIDDLE of a book when everything else is strange....throws me completley off! it's like i've been suddenly tossed out of the world of the book, and i've got to climb back in again.

*looks up and realizes with a shock i just quoted someone responding to what i had just said*
oops... *goes and erases quote*

Well...this isn't exactly what you're talking about, but my brother has this thing where whenever he looks at the clock, it's 5:55 or 11:11 or 4:44. It's pretty amusing, he runs away screaming every time, XD

[kk]

That happened to me 4 times today. Is that creepy, or what? *looks at watch* Oh, good, it didn't happen again.

[Dragon Writer]

wqhy would you run away from that? doesn't he know the whole thing about making a wish when you see that? or am i the only one who knows that...ah well, tell him it's supposed to be a good thing! or don't, if you're enjoying the show too much. *grins* the only numbers that haunt me is eight, and only cause i LIKE the number eight.

I've heard of that. I don't do it though. It never works, except in extreme cases. Extreme cases that have something to do with the space-time continuim.

That rarely happens to me with numbers, but with words instead. I've had entire weeks where I hear the same word repeated over and over again in TV shows, books, people I know, blogs, etc., when before I'd never heard that word once. (Or had only heard it rarely) Drives me nuts!

I've had a friend who had a problem with electronics. Everytime he would go under a lamp post the light would go out, and when he's near electronics they don't always keep working correctly.

I can definitely identify with that, Gigo. Mondays have got to be my least favorite day of the week. There's something about having to drag yourself out of bed on a Monday morning at 6:45 AM when you've been able to sleep as much as you want over the weekend. And the day always seems to go downhill from there. Oh, and as for the number curse...123 and 456, etc. seem to pop up unexpectedly a lot to me, but then again maybe it's just that I notice them more.

[Dragon Writer]

though THIS week, it's tuesday i have to worry about! three day weekend! *cheers* *celebrates* *WOnders what else i can say* um...the only number to follow me around seems to be seven, and eight, and that's cause i tend to think about htose numbers... *quickly puts up a wall begween gigos so that the first can't corrupt the latter*

I've been having trouble with one minus seven root thirteen over 39. Actually, I only encountered it once. But really, once was enough. Such a stupid number.

[EricG1793]

Nope.

[Dragon Writer]

ok, eric...one BIG thing: please, plese, TRY to keep away from one liners. (it'll get you yelled at, and wasts dd money too, so it's not a very good thing!)

[Rhi]

Complicated equations to speed up time? Huh? How would an equation speed up time? *is confused* That's rather...freaky.

Eric, no more one-liners or else I will be forced to set my ravenous flesh-eating pink bunnies on your trail

[Dragon Writer]

if you imbued the equationw ith maigcal powers it could! *imbues two plus two with the abilitiy to make whoevers doing this equation dance for two days* THIS should get interesting....i think seven's haunting me (and eight) but that's just cause they're my favorite numbers...i tend to notice when they appear, a bit more then others. *shrugs*
