But it confuses people because, due to the fact that you have long luscious hair, they don't know if you're a chick following a chick following a dude into a thread posting something that prolongs a joke or a dude following a chick following a dude posting something that prolongs a joke.

No, simply no.

I bet you didn't know that. It's the only number in a set of numbers that go to INFINITY. INFINITY!!!!! It never ends, and out of an INFINITE number of numbers, forty is the ONLY ONE.

Other cool things about forty:

-40 is the same on both Fahrenheit and Celcius thermometers
Zirconium has an atomic number of forty
And Argon has a mass of forty.

And anyone that says that Argon isn't cool doesn't know ANYTHING about it.
~It's a noble Gas
~It has a super-cool electronic configuration of: 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6
~For elements Potassium through Bromine, they have an Noble Gas Configuration with Argon in it. That's 17 elements that rely on Argon, which has a mass of forty, SO FORTY IS PRETTY AWESOME!
~Argon is also the most common noble gas in the air!!
~It's used in lightbulbs. And where would we be without lightbulbs? That's right. In the dark.

Oh my, I got so caught up in my passionate admiration for Argon. Moving on:

Forty is also stereotyped as 'middle age' and after that you're old. : O Hey Zerok, you are half way to being OLD. My parents freaked out when they got to 40.
U2 wrote a song called Forty
The Vodka in my closet has 40% alcohol
Forty days and Forty nights is the name of a movie.
Christians believe Jesus was in the desert for forty days and forty nights.
Despite 4 being the square of 2, 40 is NOT the square of 20.
The square root of 40 is approximately 6.32456\

FORTY IS FANTASTIC.

I love how no matter how stupid of a mistake you make you can just cover it up by saying you were being sarcastic or joking with nothing that would suggest it's a joke. What's even better is the people who quoted it with "LOL PWNED". I wonder if they'll say they were joking and knew the difference in how 'forty' is spelled too.

heh, interesting observation.
Let's see if I can do one as well:

Using the following common letter-to-number conversion table:
a 1
b 2
c 3
d 4
e 5
f 6 -
g 7
h 8
i 9
j 10
k 11
l 12
m 13
n 14
o 15 -
p 16
q 17
r 18 -
s 19
t 20 -
u 21
v 22
w 23
x 24
y 25 -
z 26

We find the following letters substitute for the letters in the word "FORTY":
6 15 18 20 25

Complemented by the following set of numbers, the count of letters before each letter in alphabetical sequence, but occurring after the previous letter from the word FORTY (ie, a b c d e = 5, F; g h i j k l m n = 8, O)
5 8 2 1 4

Separate the digits in sequence for the first string of numbers, 6 15 18 20 25:
6 1 5 1 8 2 0 2 5
The sum of those numbers? 30. Ten less than 40, our original number.

Perform the same operation on the complementary string:
5 8 2 1 4
The sum? 20.

So, from 40, we get 30 and then 20... the 1st 3 multiples of 10 which end in Y, the second to last letter in the 26-letter alphabet. 1+3+10+26=40.

I'm a filthy cheater.

Gah.

Everyone knows the ol' multiples of 9 less than 100 digit's all add up to nine, ala 18, 1+8= 0; 27, 2+7 = 9; etc. But there are much cooler things I that I completely forget. I'm tempted to Google, but there are far more interesting things to do right now.

If I wasn't a lazy bastard, I'd totally turn that into a sexual joke.

Fun fact about 9, though. 9*40 = 360. 360 is the most versatile number ever. It's such a wonderful number.

I've never seen that, ever.
Things like 'harbour' and 'favour' come up in dictionary.com as the British way, but nothing for fourty.

I also wrote 1 + 8 = 0 back up there.
AND I STAND BY IT.
