Because it becomes a fight over how 5 is the most even odd number.
by Anonymous1 year ago
What's the most odd even number? I might go with 14
by Anonymous1 year ago
To me it's 4 and 6. Can't have 3 even numbers in a row. Even numbers should go 2, 5, 8, 10, 12, 15, 18…
by Anonymous1 year ago
3 is the bestest number ever. Not even close.
Another question--did anyone else, as a kid, associate colors with numbers? For me, 1 was white, 2 was blue, 3 was green, etc.
by Anonymous1 year ago
My friend did. He also said he sees colors with music pitch (synesthesia)

I'm not him, but my favorite dinosaur is the stegosaurus, and not just because of the thagomizer incident. Runner up goes to the ankylosaurus. I just like medium-sized herbivores with strong defensive capabilities.

13, it's considered unlucky so it's usually available when choosing a numbered item. Plus it looks like a "B" which is kinda cool.

The only people I've ever met who had a favorite number were seriously mentally ill.
by Anonymous1 year ago
The only people who've randomly told you their favourite number. I imagine you don't ask, so I'd consider it weird if that was something told to you.
Mine's 6, it's rarely relevant
by Anonymous1 year ago
See but there you go randomly telling me your favorite number. I feel like you should at least talk to a psychiatrist.
by Anonymous1 year ago
It's relevant to the conversation. If we weren't talking favourite numbers at all, I would not have brought it up because it's weird to randomly mention.
by Anonymous1 year ago
No but people sometimes ask about your ‘lucky' number.
I don't like it when they do though because mine is 7 and that's so predictable. I can't help it though. 7 has always been my favourite/lucky number ever since I was a kid.

When I was a kid I actually had an order of favourite numbers up to 10
It was something like
7
6
4
2
8
1
5
9
3
Honestly I can't remember the exact order after 8 but damn I did not like those odd numbers, unless it was 7

I think the real thing to note is that people tend to have canned responses ready for their favorites in a variety of standard categories (colors, foods, movies, music, etc.) That they will provide without thinking deeply about it.
I think that question should be given a LOT more context to make it more interesting or telling. All you need to do is phrase it like this for a 100 times better question:
"what's your favorite _____ for when you ______?"
Examples might include "what's your favorite music when you're feeling sad/happy?" "What's your favorite food when you're having a night in" "what's your favorite color when buying clothes for yourself?".
Adding the extra layer does more than just give you that extra information; it also forces the other party to contextualize the question and actually think about the answer instead of just giving their prepared response.
by Anonymous1 year ago
That being said, my favorite number is 38. It's an even number, which I see as comforting for some reason. I find that it's large enough that you don't see it all the time every day like the numbers 1 to 10, but it's still low enough that you'll see it with some amount of regularity which is like a tiny little treat whenever it pops up
by Anonymous1 year ago
People who care what your favorite __________ is care a lot more about colors than they do numbers.

327, it all started when I got my first car which had a 327ci V8. That number has been showing up in my life ever since then. My lucky number is 712, I was born 7-12. My mother lives on Rout 712 an my father's street address is 1712. Also, the number 23. Did anybody else see that one? It's actually weird how often 23 shows up, like really weird.

I don't feel like this isn't even remotely true. I've been asked plenty of times what number is my favorite. Not as often as I've been asked about my favorite color but still plenty of times.

I never got how people could have a favorite color or number. It just depends on the object. Purple flower is pretty, purple bike is ugly.
The same with numbers, how the hell can a number be a favorite.
