Odd-numbered years

[Oeditpus Rex]

I dunno, man. I just dunno.

:dilemma:

[LynzM]

1. I don't like them as much as even-numbered years

I'm weird like that. :shrug:

[Oeditpus Rex]

3. I've never been a fan of odd numbers in general

It's like they're gonna topple over.

Even numbers are much more solid.

:thumbsup:

23. Jesus, me either! I thought I was the only one!

24. We learn it at an early age

Ever hear a Little League team chanting "One, three, five, seven"? :shrug:



Besides — even numbers even sound more confident.



Well... except six.

[qnr]

2. They're evil. People push through BS legislation in the odd-numbered years because

Americans have such a short attention span. They figure that can get in some feel-good stuff in the next year, before the election.

4. I like odd numbers.

I'm weird like that. And I really like the number 7



Plus I'll be happy to get '06 ever with. x(

[Oeditpus Rex]

6. Ooo, y'know what I realized last night?

I'm lookin' at a whole year of writing '7' the European way. :bounce:

[RevolutionaryActs]

8. How does one do that?

:shrug:

[Oeditpus Rex]

9. Y'know, with a line through it

On the 7 and the Z.

It's an affectation I've recently acquired.

[RevolutionaryActs]

10. I always "cross" my 7's

It's a habit I picked up when I worked in the deli, it made it easier to read the dates on stuff. Cool! I'm all European! :bounce:

[Oeditpus Rex]

11. I just started doing it

like in the last year or so. Dunno why, really. :shrug:









Hey, I bet it was that damned Call Me Wesley dude.

[RevolutionaryActs]

13. Who? No, wait, I think I know him.

He's a Mod right? :shrug:


:evilgrin::rofl:

[Oeditpus Rex]

14. Yeah, I think he is

All I know is he has a weird fetish with lips. x(

[RevolutionaryActs]

15. ...

:spray:

27. I started in high school

My French and science teachers did it.

Loved it when it confused and pissed off my old freeper boss.

[Redstone]

26. ARGH! That's almost as irritating as people who put the "swedish slash" through

their zeros!

Stop it RIGHT NOW, would you?

17. Just started doing that myself. Chalking it up to failing sight

and difficulty telling the 1s from the 7s
But, a young pup like you prolly doesn't have to worry 'bout that ;)

[Oeditpus Rex]

18. You flatter me

Please continue.

[havocmom]

20. No, I BS you

Us geezers-in-training need to keep our spirits up.

[Oeditpus Rex]

21. Well, *us* geezers-in-training

can't tell the difference between flattery and BS.

Therefore... uh...

22. I cross 7s and 0s, comes from working with dark-age computers

and also, since they didn't have a year 0 (which would be correct) and started counting at year 1, all the years are really (year - 1), which means all apparently even years are really odd, and odd years are even.

[BlueIris]

5. Bizarrely, I always do better in the odds than the evens.

At least psychologically. With the sole exception of 2000.

[BarenakedLady]

7. Oh please

It can only get better next year, right? RIGHT? :scared:

[Oeditpus Rex]

12. Maybe

Maybe not.



:evilgrin:

[Orsino]

16. Odd-numbered ones typically suck.

[caty]

19. I thought "7" was a lucky number.

25. I miss the olympics

They only happen in the even numbered years
