if the total for a purchase you made was $666.00 would you buy something small just so it wouldnt be $666 anymore?

This poll and question brought to you by Real Life comics

and my latest LCD flat panel purchase which was $666.00 shipped

If you were walking down a sidewalk and stepped over exactly 13 cracks on your way to buy crack, would you go back out and step over another two cracks (one crack forward, one crack back) to buy your crack without stepping over an unlucky amount of cracks?

No. As if the mark of the beast is really going to be 666. 99.9% of people know what it is, I don't think Satans is going to be that stupid. He'll probably be sneaky and use something like 667.

are you kidding? That would be awesome! I once bought some cleaning supplies for work, and it came to $6.66. I said "well, that throws the notion that cleanliness is next to godliness right out the window!"

Maybe. Laugh if you will. I have strange little superstitions. Most of them have some sort of basis. This one doesn't but I still might add something.

Yeah, and don't tell anyone that the REAL number for 911 is 912.

I usually just buy the crack on the corner.

If you take the ascii numbers of your name EMPshockwave, you get 69, 77, 80, 83, 72, 79, 67, 75, 87, 65, 86 and 69.
If you add together each number until left with a single (69 = 6+9 = 15 = 1+5 = 6), you get 6, 5, 8, 2, 9, 7, 4, 3, 6, 2, 5, 6
If you add each set of 3 together until left with a single (6+5+8 = 19 = 1+9 = 10 = 1+0 = 1) you get 1944
subtract 911 (september 11th) you get 1033
subtract 25, the # of aproval of sin, you get 1008
flip number backwards (8001) and subtract 1977 (date Elvis left the planet) you get 6024
flip backwards again (4026) and subtract year chineese recorded first UFO (1181) you get 3025
subtract 2191 (the year rosevelt was shot, backwards) you are left with 834
834 backwards is 438
438 in octal is 666.

Aww sh!t you're screwed.

Many years ago, I had a woman add something to her order when the total came up $6.66.

Personally, I would probably revel in it and use my fingers as devil horns on my head and start talking all sinister.

I dont see why people dont come up with funny ways like this all the time for making fun of others. However the ascii numbers for my name you have are wrong. EMP and shockwave wouldnt be consecutive numbers. Lowercase and uppercase have different ascii values. Sorry bud... good effort, definate credit given for the thought though

Why would a number be the mark of the beast? What does that mean? Is it like Satan's lucky number? Why would Satan need a lucky number? If I dial it on a telephone, does it connect me to hell? And why wouldn't Satan make it a lower number like 3, so that way he could have access to more sweet, sweet souls?
