Why My Favorite Number Is 27
Such a beautiful number. Look at it. Stare.
I don't know when exactly I pinpointed this number as my favorite, but I'd say it was within the last few years or so. Someone would ask me what my favorite number was, and I'd say 27 in a flash.
But why?
Why is that such a great number? Why not 10, 35, or 138,570,283,745,328,375,682,375?
I think it's because I like the way it sounds. Twenty-seven. Tweeeenntyyy-sevvvvennn. It rolls off the tongue in a nice way. It's not short and choppy like some other numbers, yet it's not as hard to say as others.
I think it just sounds and looks cool to me. It's the number that I think is the best.
What's your favorite number? What makes it so cool to you?

lol. I don't actually have a favorite number. But your reasons for 27 make sense... lol Maybe they cracked me up a little, too. :D
ReplyDeleteNo favorite number? *gasp* Haha, well, laughing is always fabulous.
DeleteEight, that's the magic number, yes it is, that's the magic number.
ReplyDeleteHmm.....eight.....no.....I like 27 better.
DeleteMy favorite number. Hmmmmm.
ReplyDeleteI never quite understood how to pick a favorite number. Your favorite color is the one you think looks the best, your favorite song is the one you think sounds the best, your favorite number is...?
I would say 1234. Or 9 3/4. Both book references hehe ;)

The one that sounds the best and is the first to leap off your tongue when asked to shout a random number.
DeleteI get the second, though the first reference is slipping my mind. Refresh my memory?
From The Mortal Instruments series by Cassandra Clare :)
DeleteSpecifically from the quote in City of Bones, "Shadowhunters: Looking better in black than the widows of our enemies since 1234"

Everyone's talking about those books lately! I think there's a movie coming out for the first one. Are they any good?
