Does anybody else see this number everywhere or is it just me?

EDIT:

Okay now the post count gag has worn off I feel I can contribute...

There is actually a naturally occuring phenomenom that we often notice certain digits more often than others...

I went through a stage when I saw 9:11 as the time almost everyday for a week. I was getting pretty freaked out by it.

Whenever I see 1138... As in THX 1138... I'm always noticing it, especially in films when it is often done in hommage. But seeing as my count was 1138 at the time of posting I just thought I'd share that with all you good people...

Not too long ago I bought a new 4-digit combination lock for my locker and the combination ended up being 1138. Funny coincidence ain't it?

People have been known to see the same number everywhere. Whether it's simply coincidence or something else, I think it happens to everyone. For example, the number 666 has been following me around while playing Tales of Symphonia.

either that or I'm keerazee

Ya know what numbers I keep seeing everywhere?
4 8 15 16 23 42.
Of course I have been watching Lost...

Anyway I like the new avatar Sui. The reds much nicer than the green.
Well you beat me to that reference. Nice job. Now, I'm going to have to watch an episode on Netflix.

I really am going to hope that I'm not the only one here who knows the origin and significance of these numbers... something about the "greatest movies of all time"...?

It's the title of George Lucas's first film - which sucked, but not nearly as much as the ewoks. Why the hell couldn't we have had the wookie battle back then?!?!?!?!

*Ahem* Sorry, touch distracted, but still, that's why you might see that particular number more than most.

The number nine follows me like a curse, although I've never gotten it once as a lucky number in a fortune cookie, I make sure to check everytime. Strange.

it's one of those things if you think a lot about a number or quite frankly anything, you will notice it more.

if you get a new car, when you drive it you will pick out how many people who have the same car as you.

it's just natural for humans to do this

Funny that, always happens on GTA...

It's interesting how 'trendy' one can be since you could be driving through the ghetto in a Turismo then suddenly every kid and his mum has one...

Any thoughts on why we might notice things like this? I can't really think at the moment...
