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.
