Random What's your favorite number (and why)?

[Waffles's iconWaffles]

Just the kind of silly thread I missed being able to make, haha.

Do you happen to have a lucky number? A favorite number? If so, what's that number and what makes it so important to you?

I have two, actually: 14 & 17.

Fourteen used to be my most hated number (ironically enough) because turning that age catapulted me into what I like to call the "Clipped Wings" era, or a time of great confusion and hopelessness... But with the enormous benefit of hindsight, I came to understand that it was also a time of great self-discovery and even of self-sacrifice to help with the acceptance of loss, of a world that had ceased to exist behind me.

As far as seventeen goes... It's a number that has been deeply intertwined with some of my greatest deeds and happiest moments.

What about you?

Can't forget about the absolute legend:
69
You already know why.

39. You can probably guess why.

8, because it is curvy and perfectly symmetrical without being boring like a zero.

100 cause I finally got to level 2!

jk. My actual favorite number is 11 cause it has some weird properties (due to it being 1 above the base).
I won't repost my explanation (but I will link to it) but the first five powers of 11 are palindromes, specifically:

11^0 = 1
11^1 = 11
11^2 = 121
11^3 = 1331
11^4 = 14641

I was born on sept 9, literally 9/9

Never really considered 9 to be my lucky number but I still went with it

Before I was going to say my most favorite number and would you look at that, someone had 69 as their favorite number due to a sexual joke.

Anyways, my favorite number is 42.

13 because a lot of people associate this number with bad luck and it’s my birthdate.
