Oh, it’s my birthday today btw.

I’m 28. I like 28 a lot better than 27, tho I also liked 26 better than 27. Wanna hear my incredibly arbitrary reason?

It’s because blue is my favorite color, and 2 and 8 are both blue (albeit different shades). 6 is purple, which I guess goes okay with blue, but 7 is red, but like the kinda red with an ever-so-slight orange tint, and it really doesn’t go well with 2 (blue).

Yep that’s literally it

Happy birthday! Interesting comments about the colours and numbers, never heard them before...

@supersnipe thanks and lol it’s called synesthesia. I’ve mostly heard that somewhere between 2 - 5% of people have it, though based on conversations I’ve had with people I suspect it might be a bit higher. Perhaps more on par with left-handedness

@Zeuro I get it - occasionally - with sounds and voices. Even if he was wearing pink, Freddie Mercury's was a bright, blazing orange...

Some female harmonies, however, really do sound 'pink'. Here are the Caravelles, from 1963.
