Anyone have any weird numbers/counting habits? I wouldn't say I'm OCD about it but I'd prefer the TV volume to be in increments of 5 and I find myself counting stairs as I go up them sometimes.

Subtract the third number from the first in your post count, add the first two numbers, then look at the last number.

I'm kind of like that, but usually my numbers have to be even.
TV Volume has to be an even number. My car has a dual digital climate control system, and I like both numbers to be the same, or at least even numbers.

Heh, I do the exact same thing... I try to find patterns in what time it is, and volume and things always have to be on an even number.
Same with food... kinda like Doss2k, am I right?

don't set the alarm clock or microwave on a standard time, like 8:30....so, 8:31 instead. Or 2:34 in the micro.

[Edited on July 20, 2011 at 2:13 PM. Reason : I used to not get out of bed unless the clock read a time that was a multiple of five.]

Everything has to be in 3s or multiples of 3, including (but not limited to):

Alarm clock times
Microwave cook times
Workout times
Scratches
Stretches
Etc.

I used to be really bad about it, but my previous job broke me of some odd stuff.

i remember number by properties.


For instance 2950 would be Prime number in the 20s/30s range + Half 100.


I could memorize 2950, but the keygen makes the number more secure in my mind.

i remember numbers by historical significance, or sports-relation, or something about the number itself

I almost always sneeze in multiples of threes... even my friends notice. If it's only twice, I get confused as to where the third one is, and four times is disconcerting and between the third and fourth life usually briefly resumes.
5 is RIGHT OUT.
(sorry, I had to)
