I was out shopping and signed up for a promotion with my phone number which ends in 666. The women behind went bat crap crazy saying I had the sign of the devil and how could I use that number. All I could say to her was invite her to the neighbourhood Covent to share her view. I thought the cashier was going to die from laughter
LOL. I have a rifle that has a serrial # that ends in 666. Serious.
Reminds me of this one time years ago when I was eating out at Arby's with my mother and sister . The total for our order came to $ 6.66 . The cashier got freaked out , and told us to hurry up and pay him , so that he could get it off his cash register . His manager responded by telling him that it's just a superstition that it's a bad number .
I've had a few people over the years flip over that. Last week one of the cashier's tips came to $6.66 and she was practically in tears. I threw in some pennies for her.
You invited her to a convent, as in “get thee to a nunnery?” Lol that’s pretty funny. I was hoping it was the cashier goin crazy, cause then you could say “well you’re the one asking me to give the number to buy something so that must make you the Antichrist?”
I think he meant coven, but some convents were supposedly hotbeds of devil worshippers, at least according to the early Reformationists!!! LOL
@Kahuna so what did you mean by covent then? All I can find online on it is a large square in London that was originally the garden of a monastery. Do you mean a witches coven, so she can try to minister to the heathens or a nuns convent where she can be with her own kind? Lol either way good one.
Hahaha! Yes it was a good retort.
If people go ape over a phone number I wonder how the superstitious are taking the fact that Jared Kushner's family's building address in Manhattan is 666...
...5th Avenue. It's the one for which they desperately needed a bailout. The government of Qatar was going to invest, and when they balked Trump started calling them terrorists and slapped an embargo on them. Then they finally coughed up some dough and suddenly they weren't terrorists anymore. Swear to god. I could not make this shit up.
Interesting read
Actually, bizarre read. Revelations has got to be the strangest book in the bibble, bar none. Just bat-shit crazy. I sincerely wonder what drugs "St John" was on while he wrote this! Too bad Coleridge didn't finish his fever dream, at least he was talented!
@phxbillcee. Yes it is
