55 is Everywhere 2014-08-13 16:55:32


Root beer, double nicks, whatever you want to call it. I've been seeing it everywhere. In my weight, in my vehicle miles. I don't even go out of my way to find it, but just for fun, I did a little math and found that it's also a Fibonacci number.

1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5 + 6 + 7 + 8 + 9 + 10 = 55

Anyone play the alphabet numbers puzzle in school? Where A=1, B=2, C=3, and so on. Try it with your name.
F I N A L E E
(6) (9) (14) (12) (5) (5)

(5) (5)

The Nazi Party was founded on February 24, 1920. February 24th being the 55th day of the year in the Gregorian calender.

Like what the hell is going on here? Anyone else find any reoccurring numbers in their life?

You are going out of your way to look for it though. You say that you're not but you are, even if it's subconsciously and you're not aware you're doing this.

The same could be true of any other numbers. For example 69, 666, 573, 88, 42, 13, and any other numbers that might have some significance attached with them. In fact now that I mention those numbers specifically I bet you start to see them more often too.

Dammit, Bren. This is serious. And seeing that hardly anyone else is posting other reoccurring numbers besides 55, I guess you guys just don't understand.

What if I told you that there are numbers ... EVERYWHERE, you just have started noticing a certain one more

Response to 55 is Everywhere 2014-08-14 05:03:56


The same can be said for many other numbers as long as you are willing to find some "coincidences" involving any chosen numer.

144 is a "special" number:
1+3+5+...+23=144, or 144 is a square number.
144 is in the Fibonacci sequence.
And many more nice properties can be found in wiki.

You're specifically looking for that number, it's no wonder you're seeing it everywhere.

Numerology, huh?
Numbers are everywhere, man.
Everywhere.

You just single-out numbers you like subconsciously.

For example, I get all giddy when I see numerical coincidences and such.

I once saw a car with the plate: "PIE 618"
Pie could mean Pi.
Pi = 3.14 Golden Ratio = 6.18
3.14 + 3.04 = 6.18
But of course, this is just over-thinking it.

I like the numbers "2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 9, 10, 13 and 14"
I keep a look out for that stuff since I've nothing better to do, but I don't strongly believe that they're all involved in some conspiracy. They're not matters of grave importance-- I just like doing it.

Best not to think too hard about that conspiracy gunk.

A correction, though:

At 8/14/14 09:22 AM, NGPulp wrote: Pi = 3.14 Golden Ratio = 6.18
3.14 + 3.04 = 6.18

Pi = 3.14... Phi/Golden Ratio = 1.618...
3.14 - 2.00 + 0.5 - 0.03 + 0.008 = 1.618

Doesn't seem to special of a coincidence now.

Then again 3.14 = March 14-- June 18 is a month and two days from it, so I find that a bit interesting, although probably a useless tidbit of coincidental superstition gunk.

messed up on that one
