Uhoh, I just realized I have a number fetish

I'm in love with certain numbers, 42, 410, 13, but especially 42 because it's the answer.

1. awesome! I do too actually

I have been fascinated with the number 9 for years, as well as some others. What's funny is, my dad is a total Mr. Math Guy, but creative complex math and my brother and I apparently split his genes on that - my brother is a fairly plain accountant, and I like the interesting relationships of numbers but suck at math outside of geometry.

Anyway, ever look at the repeating patterns of the first 9 integers?

For instance, 9 times anything broken down into a single digit adds up to 8*9=72. 7+2=9 It's the only number that is like that, but they all have neat patterns.

for multiples of 3, the pattern is 3, 6, 9, 3, 6, 9 (3, 6,9, 12 (1+2=3), 15 (1+5=6), 18 (1+8=9), etc.)
for 4 it's 4, 8, 3, 7, 2, 6,
for 5 it's 5, 1, 6, 2, 7, 3, etc.
for 6 it's 6, 3, 9, 6, 3, 9, etc.

sorry. nerded out a bit.

2. Might come in handy with the lottery

The numbers I'm thinking about keep coming up in my life in different places, prominent places at that, it's a good thing I'm not a gambler I'd probably lose my shirt,
I can see your logic though, and it is pretty cool the way they breakdown.

3. yeah, honestly I don't even recall why I noticed it one day, but I did

it started with the number 9 pattern then I checked the others. I can dig recurring numbers in your life though - that is cool.

4. The number nine is the basis for a lot of tricks

Like this one which purports to read your mind:
