What’syour favourite number?

[Davy]

I know it's only 0 through 9, but for some reason, the last few years my OCD has fixated on 40 and 25. Not sure why that is, but for this poll I'm going with 4.

George Costanza thought Seven would be a great name for his future child.

Well I always liked 13. Because I was born on the 13th. But everyone said it was bad luck and that I shouldn't like it... So I went with 3 but I must admit I still love 13 and 3 very much.

That makes you even older than me. How is that possible?

Old and crotchety, that’s me……..well, crotchety for sure these days.

5 !!!

Because the number 55 was truly the magic date and age to turn, and retire, a couple years ago.

thank you oh wonderful number 5! And another 5 too.

We’re derailing a bit, but I never got the D vs d change in location of the curve.

4. Nice and pointy, with some interesting angles. It's the same reason that K is my favourite letter, both capital and small. K/k has the additional advantage that it sounds nice.
Several of the other numbers look as though they might just spend their time rolling around, when we're not looking. However, worst is 5, because it combines straight lines and curves, and simply looks weird because of that. To a lesser extent, 2.
For letters, I find E/e perplexing. I don't understand it. E looks as though it has to strain hard to keep its arms outstretched, whilst e looks really lazy - just sitting around.
(These are things I have thought about a lot, previously. It's good to learn that I'm not the only one!)

I like the way your mind works.

Lucky Seven is a goody.

The figure 8 has both vertical and horizontal symmetry, and that has a certain appeal. It also offers you two holes....
5 looks a bit like an 'S', and adding an 's' to the end of most words gives you more of that thing, so that has appeal too.
Never liked 6. Looks unstable.
3 is good. Perfect pairs and all that. I like trios and trilogies.
4, not so much. And Thunderbird 4 was a bit of a one-trick-pony, or a one-trick-submarine.
7? The most common of favourites. Populist rot. Not for me.
9, again like 6, looks unstable. Top heavy, where 6 is bottom heavy.
1 is just boring. An ok place to start from, get past and leave behind as quickly as possible.
As a young boy I was sceptical of the existence of 2. I fixated on the progression of 1 to 3. Somehow it made sense to a young, inchoate mind.

I'm going with 8. Also looks a bit like a pair of handcuffs, and that brings back memories of a WPC I dated once...

Zero is a non-starter. It thinks it's important philosophically. Very pretentious.

No option for 'other'...?

I was going to, but there are only 10 options possible.

My favorite number is... that one we lit up in the middle of a Yes show!
