Odds or Evens?
 

I know this may sound totally wacked, but over at lunch yesterday some of my colleages and me were discussing stuff and the convo turned into our personalities and their peculiar traits.

Then someone asked, "Do you prefer odd numbers or even numbers? Like the number of pages of a book you read at a time, the dates which you consider lucky, the number of grapes you eat, etc. etc., you get the drift."

This got all of us thinking, and some commented that they preferred the even stevens. Others, including me, went with the odd #s. There is something striking about an odd number which is unique (like some odd numbers not divisible by any other number other than themselves or 1), so I went over my habitual actions too.

Normally when reading a book, I make it a point to finish a chapter at least. If its a long chapter, I have usually stopped at an odd-numbered page.

The tyre pressure of my car's tyres is an odd number. I have 3 pets at my home, 7 tattoos, 5 pieces of art adorning the walls of my bedroom, the number of my DVDs is usually an odd number, etc.

More often than not, I usually prefer to log out of HDC when my posts are odd-numbered. It was a queer coincidence at first, but lately I ve been favoring it consciously too.

I know this might sound odd (and some of you might deem me odd), but now the poser stands for you.

Think it over carefully.

hmmmmm......never gave it any thought. Sounds like a bit of OCD ya got going there V. :D

:p



I know it sounds kinda wacked, but trust me, think back carefully. You will find several (yes, more than one) examples of this in your daily stuff too.

Most guys I know are leaning towards the even #s. Some of em don't bother, or don't care about their preferences.

I d say its 70% even leaners, 25% don't-care ones, and 5% odd leaners.

Just think - he only had one number to worry about. You've got every other number in existence!

rofl! :eek:


:p

i've always liked the number 5 .

it's an odd nimber ... but it's half way through 10 so it's kind of even too.

There we go.

See? Its perfectly normal to go with an odd number, or an even number.



I have been kinda partial to 7 myself. And 7 has popped in my life on several occasions.

Such as, 25th being my birthday, and 2 + 5 = 7,


1983, year I was born, 1 + 9 + 8 + 3 = 21 (multiple of 7),


My first name has 7 alphabets in it, and so does my last name.


7 tattoos on my body as already mentioned,


Marks scored in first high-school exam 420/600, which is 70%.



...plenty of more such examples I can cite.

No preference for me, but I do have to stop the gas pump at a whole number be it odd or even.

odd numbers for me

I don't know if I specifically pick odd or even numbers, but 3 is definitely my number and I do like things that are asymmetrical.

The number 3 became my lucky number as a kid, because I remember the first time I ever won something and it was at this birthday party where they had door prizes and I picked 3 and won.

Though whenever I take a photo, I always think of the rule of thirds.

When I was in vegas I played number 3 in roulette, which hit twice in a row, skipped a round and then hit a third time, causing me to win a few hundred dollars.

I've owned three cars in my life.

I've moved three places in the last three years.

There are 9 letters in my first name and 6 letters in my last name, both divisible by 3.

I was an only child growing up with both my parents, so there were 3 of us.

I was born in 1980, so 1+9+8+0=18, which 18/3=6, which 6/3=3.


That's all I can think of now.

Creepy :)

My favorite number is 4 but I can't really recall anything else that I have done that would make me believe I prefer one set of numbers over the next. 4 is my lucky number just because I was born on February 4th.

holy shit - i always like 5 - its kind of my lucky number and i thought i was the only person who thought that - - - weird

I've always been a fan of the number 69.




that was pretty immature.....but there it is.



hey its friday night.....about one hour until "beer time":D

what part of the country is that available in...I'm on the east coast but I don't think I've seen that anywhere. I'm a big fan of bock beer.

i can't get it here in NY but i lived in TX for awhile and became totally addicted to it - i was in texas a few weeks back and drank copious amounts of Shiner Bock - it is divine (brewed in one of the little German towns in Texas - mmm mmm mmm)



damn - now i'm thirsty!

My OCD makes me to things in multiples of 3. It makes me do a lot of wierd shit but everything has to do with 3. So I guess I'm odd :)

What a strange question V...


I fully approve. :D




I never gave it any thought, but I guess it'd be odds for me because 11 has always been my lucky number. 1,3,7,9,13,15,17,19,21,etc can all go suck a dick. 11 is where it's at. ;)

that's better!

11 is good, 5 is good, 7 and 9 are good, and Seven of Nine is even better. :eek:

i'm afraid of 7






























b/c 7 ate 9
