Interesting.

-- Your mention of the 23 enigma made me think of "23 skidoo" (which is related to what is said to be the most-used phrase in movies).

-- I realised that I had no idea of the origins of the phrase.

-- I googled it.

-- I foolishly opened a wikipedia page.

-- The wikipedia page said this of the phrase's origin:

"Although there are a number of stories suggesting the possible origin of the phrase, none has been universally accepted.[citation needed]"

-- I sighed with deep despair at the utter stupidity of the person who added a "[citation needed]" to a statement saying that not everyone agrees on something.

-- I concluded, for the thousandth time, that the best thing to do, when on a wikipedia page, is leave.

-- I 23-skidooed.


Cyclic coincidences like that don't just happen! There must be a reason for it!

One of the 50 gods that unilaterally created the world must be trying to say something to me!


... And it appears that what he is saying is **** off!







(I'm so glad I found religion. It's made me so much smarter than everyone else)
I wanna be a eunuchs developer! Pass me a bread knife!
