But this time it's five ones.  FIVE?  Ah?  Ah??  :lol:  kidding.

I actually like little oddities like this, and get the vague notion I should celebrate in some way.

Seven is almost as good as five
Look, asshole:  Your 'incomprehensible' act, your word-salad, your pinealism...It BORES ME.  I've been incomprehensible for so long, I TEACH IT TO MBA CANDIDATES.  So if you simply MUST talk about your pineal gland or happy children dancing in the wildflowers, go talk to Roger, because he digs that kind of shit

Its 11/1/11 in the UK so I guess that makes our dates cooler?

The Corduroy Appreciation Club is going to have a Grandest Meeting at 11/11/11.

Because it's the date that most closely resembles corduroy, ever.

(yes I know, not quite ever, but maybe corduroy wasn't invented yet in 11/11/1111)

Mr. Language and I have a pact for 11:11 11/11/11.

...I think in the Afghan/Iranian calendar this is the end of 1388 or something like that...I think new year is actually in the Spring.

...but that said thanks for the reminder.  I had meant to make a note of this--one of my kids is totally into this sort of thing.  Like last year's 10/10/10.

People think the weirdest things are neat. Next you'll be all making a big deal about an eclipse or something mundane like that.

:lol:...s'ok, I think in this case seeing my not-yet-jaded geekatron 13 year old get excited in a small way over mere numbers is cute as fuck. I'm sure I just offended yet another PD poster by saying that, but I don't fucking care. I'm grateful he's into 11111-ism, it's perhaps banal but terribly and most appropriately harmless...

Oh, I was being sarcastic... I think it's neat, too. Me and Mr. Language always text each other "make a wish!" at 11:11, so this is like, extra super-duper dopey nerd love.
