I don’t mean like years or anything. Obviously we love 1917 and 1949 and 1959 for their historical significance, but what numbers do you just LIKE? For me personally, I like the number 6. Idk why, I just like it. What are yours?

  1. It's just such a nice clean power of 2.

I love this answer, so extremely specific lol

7 gang. I write mine with a funny little line through it.

7 is an odd number in my mind. There’s the Lucky Number 7, but also the 7 Deadly Sins, always created a cognitive dissonance in my young Catholic brain as a lil boy lmao

8 is the official number of dialectical materialism. I will not elaborate further.

I'll allow it because 3 is basically an 8 cut in half.

e it's just really creepy and arcane to me. Like its role in Euler's identity, asking with the other spooky numbers pi and i.

Not sure who that is but it's a lowercase e.

Don’t worry about it, it’s a Boomer meme by now lol

call me controversial, but I think learning about tao is more important than learning about pi, especially when you are learning about trigonometry.

I'm a big fan of 3. Used to much prefer 2, but over time 3 grew on me.

Hate 7. Fucking sucks as a number. Awful.

7, 8, 28, and 37
