| I dunno if you guys have seen these ads for this new movie "The Number 23", but in it they refer to all these dates and "facts" that happen to add up to 23, and then they say, "and 2 divided by 3 is .666"
No it's not! It's .6 repeating, which, when rounded to the three digits they use, is .667. Of course this probably ruins their whole movie premise, but fuck them for not doing the math right!

Because the number six repeating forever is still 6666666666666666666666 forever, and well, that's the "Evil" number, besides 13... God we have to many numbers we're scared of.
Not saying that America would all remember that little symbol, hell, I'm not even sure I got it right, but their premise is sound. Their math is sound. Their advertising department just needs to go back to Middle School.
