Fullerene Posted July 28, 2016 Share Posted July 28, 2016 I know certain numbers can be remembered easily such as 50 = Hawaii 52 = Pack of Cards 12 = Dozen 69 = Bryan Adams 27 = Dead Rock Stars 42 = Life, the universe and everything. .. but how do you remember 35? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Suppose I wanted to remember my passport number or national insurance number or bank account number and I needed some way to remember it. Maybe I would remember it as pairs of numbers such as 50 69 12 35. This would be Hawaii- Byran Adams-Dozen-Between 34 and 36. Okay? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BFTD Posted July 28, 2016 Share Posted July 28, 2016 (edited) 35 is just five sevens for me. They do like to batter the times tables into us when we're kids. What other numbers have an association for people? I'd imagine that most computer people mentally acknowledge powers of two, and 37 will always be the number of cocks sucked by Dante's girlfriend (including his). Edit: QI worked out the smallest number with no famous association years ago, but I've no idea what it was, and it's now known as the smallest number with no association anyway Edited July 28, 2016 by BigFatTabbyDave 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you Trying to work out 38. No luck at the moment. 38 turn it on its side and it kind of looks like chap with a moustache. A bit. Edit: looked up a list of bingo calls on Wikipedia. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_British_bingo_nicknames Surely some of them are complete bollocks? 54 Egg and Sausage 56 Shotts Bus[4] Refers to the former number of the bus from Glasgow to Shotts. 83 Stop Farting! The 8 is supposed to be the bottom and the 3 is the fart. Then when this is called, a player says "Who? Me?"

Some movie makers have gone back to using 35 mm film. Movies recorded on digital can look a bit shit on the big screen compared to those recorded on film. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
