We still need a 420 before we close the thread.
88 is another favourite (BTTF).
That's the same year two famous Aussie brands were born:
Funny thing is that most brands don't start putting "Since 19XX" on their packaging until they've been around for a while, but I remember in 1978 seeing a Billabong T-shirt for the first time and noticing that it said "Since 1973". I was five at the time.
42.
42 is a good one for me also, it reminds me off my most favourite arcade games 1942.
You know what would make for a great name? Seven.

On a side note, Kevin Spacey just did his first appearance at a fan convention, a horror con in North Carolina called Mad Monster Party. It was a really interesting example of loud internet outrage, not actually generating anything in real life. A big social media protest went out, with people announcing that they would be protesting outside of the convention. Nothing actually happened though, and in the end it was the most successful attendance that particularly convention ever had.
Oh and to get things back on track, I like the number 0.
That’s very unfortunate because I do so much love a happy ending.

Why zero?
Also. A few people I work with think I am a robot, because I never take a break, or eat, or sweat, and use words they've never heard of (which is amazing to me, why don't people have a functional vocab).
Anyway, supporting their theory, even though I've never told anyone this, I was watching Larry David show - Curb and they were talking about having a mantra. This was like season 1. You know having a mantra to calm you down to slow down your racing mind. So I thought, that sounds like something.
So I came up with a mantra to repeat when I am in bed and cannot sleep. So the mantra that came to mind is "zero, one"
lol. I still use it to this day.

It's a nice round number.

Is it? Is it really? Is it even a real number? And if it is, it's a pretty newfangled number, as it only was created somewhere in the 7th century. In the western world it was only introduced in the middle ages.
How can you like a number that wasn't even a thing during historical heights of civlization such as the Roman and Greek empires?
What kind of upper brow blasphemy is this? The Roman civilization was a huge leap. Next thing you'll be going on about you're opposed to slavery?!

How often do you think of the Roman empire?
Mine is 56. two sequential numbers multiplied by each other to produce two lower sequential numbers. 7 x 8 = 56.
I am also partial to 86. I just like the slang term "86" because no-one knows that it means any more.
33 is another favourite.
