I've been getting a lot of responses about my DDR article lately. Since most of you seem to have missed this, I'm going to pound it into your dim little eyes again:
DDR STEREOTYPES ARE FUNNYIt's pointless to have an argument over an opinion, because it's a fucking value judgement. I'm not arguing here, and I'm not being serious. I'm getting my jollies from talking smack on a video game I don't like.
Roll it up and smoke it.

Yippee!
You can't see me,
but I can you.
6/6/06 is not special at all. Anyone who thinks so needs to do a lot of learning.
Here's why.
In the Book of Revelations, the author John uses something called Gematria to calculate the number of the beast - different numbers represent different Hebrew characters. 600, 60, and 6 all hold different values. The name, incidentally, is Nero Caesar - which is another reason why 6/6/06 isn't Satanic. The beast in Revelations is not Satan, the antichrist, or anything else you think it is. The beast is a Roman emperor who persecuted Christians. Ooooh, scary.
There are two different spellings of "Nero Caesar" in Hebrew, one derived from Greek and the other from Latin. In Greek, the letter "n" is placed on the end of a word that would otherwise end in a vowel - "Nero" in this case. This spelling equates to 666. However, an alternate spelling is derived from Latin, and equates Gematrially to 616. Either way, three sixes separated by delimiting characters are NOT EVIL, NOT SPECIAL, and NOT SIGNIFICANT IN ANY WAY AT ALL.
Even if it DID hold Satanic significance, the only people talking about it are boorish morons who don't understand Satanism at all. Satan in Christianity and Satan in Satanism are two entirely different concept, you brick-headed oafs. Do your own damn research.
Funyons no longer have their own Wikipedia article.
Smart people: getting all the useless crap out of the public domain since pretty much the dawn of time(tm).

I'm a man of the world, Andy. Why, I've even been to Raleigh!
Read this. It's funny.
Not only that, it's family-friendly. Now there's a first for this blog.
