It kind of bothers me; not enough to not use it, but I know some people figure it's some bad mojo. I just noticed it was my next post number, and figured I'd ask. Poll inbound.

mark of the beast?
ETA: Revelation 13:16-18 And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a MARK in their right hand, or in their foreheads: And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the MARK, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six. |

I lived alone
my mind was blank I needed time to think to get the memories from my mind What did I see? Could I believe? That what I saw that night was real and not just fantasy Just what I saw in my old dreams were they reflections of my warped mind staring back at me? 'Cause in my dreams it's always there the evil face that twists my mind and brings me to despair Night was black was no use holding back 'Cause I just had to see was someone watching me In the mist dark figures move and twist was all this for real or just some kind of hell 6-6-6 the Number of the Beast Hell and fire was spawned to be released |

Quoted: Saw them in concert on the Number of the Beast tour. My ears are still wringingQuoted: I lived alone my mind was blank I needed time to think to get the memories from my mind ... That was a great Maiden album. I think it's unfair that 13 has been replaced by 666. There are still buildings around with no 13th floor, much cooler, not many 667 floor buildings You also used to see buildings numbered 15 instead of 13 for street numbers

666 - the extension of the beast. I was thrilled when I first started here, in that 6XXX wasn't used in the dial-plan anywhere.
So, I assigned it to myself. |
|
Whats funny is I worked with a couple Atheists who were superstitious. Yeah figure that one out.
We had Dunkin Donuts for breakfast and the total for them was $6.66 that purposely ordered other stuff after that to avoid that total. |

Poll inbound. 666 is your post number Don't you reckon that's what prompted the thread in the first place? ETA: In response to the OP, I am an amillenialist and have a very different understanding of the Book of Revelation, Antichrist(s), etc. than many of my brethren here but I still would not knowingly accept that number on anything "official" that was related to me (CC #, phone #, vehicle tag #) even though the scriptural reference is to a mark in the hand or on the head. I've never been put in such a situation, but I have a first cousin (very close to my age, a groomsmen at my wedding, we're close) who I know refuse a license plate one time because it contained those numbers. They were very understanding about it (this is the Bible Belt, after all ) and just issued him a different tag. |

Quoted:
It's the number of my birth certificate. It's all starting to make sense now. |

Quoted: I heard everyone would have to get Eddie tattooed on their backs and have to greet one another with "up the irons" which would be a dead give away. |
|
When I lived in WY, the pic on the plate was the Devils Tower and I had 666.

Quoted:
My first, middle and last name each have 6 letters.... So did Ronald Wilson Reagan. |
|
Every morning I buy a can of Cope and a breakfast sandwhich on the way to work it is $6.66.
|
|
I'm nearly certain it is after 667 but before 665. Other than that, nope.

Quoted:
I'm nearly certain it is after 667 but before 665. Other than that, nope. That's very confusing. ETA: It's my favorite number. Not because I worship the debil, but because it cracks me up to see people freak out over perfectly innocent events (like getting $6.66 in change). It's just a number folks. |

Quoted:

I didn't notice it until I was in my 20s and needed my birth certificate for something or other, and realized it was pretty weird! It's not like 666 is part of my birth certificate number, it IS my birth certificate number. I actually have birth certificate number 666 from that year. Since a three-digit number is surprisingly low (even for a small European country), I wonder if separate counties/parishes maybe had separate numbering or something? I dunno. But it is weird. I'm quite surprised that someone would issue a birth certificate with number 666 - and not just skip it. |

If I had two ex-wives, thats what the scale would read...
Naw, she was a tiny bitch but the 666 would still be appropriate. |
|
|
In the old days of pagers I used it as an id when I pages friends.
It is also pager code that spells out mom. |
|
It does not bother me. I try not to let superstitious nonsense affect my behavior.

Quoted:
Yes, my great-grandfather and his two brothers named their medicine company "666 Cough and Cold". My family and I still enjoy the benefits of it. http://media.nowpublic.net/images//40/8/4080104251c0dfd8ac6761b17ba19c3c.jpg Shit yeah, ladies. Burn the rank mucus out of your sinuses with the power of BRIMSTONE. |

Just last week I checked my balance on my checking account and the last 5 digits were 666.66.
|
|
Meh.
As long as no one is trying to tattoo it on my palm or forehead, I ain't too worried. |
|
If you put a 2 in front of it, then make it the last 4 numbers of your phone number, it spells AMMO.
In other words, my gun shop phone number is 486-AMMO |

It's the number of the beast of course. And Porter Cables T-handle drill. Model 666. |
