Weird thing happened


This 100% true

I was watching the movie on my own with popcorn,i finished the popcorn and at the end of the movie i noticed the popcorn kernels left in the bowl. I decided to count them for obvious reasons and to my amazement they all added up to 23. Now i didn't want this to happen so i counted again but it was still 23. I don't believe this means anything i just thought it was weird coincidence

reply

ha this is also 100% true.

we finished watching the movie and my sister absent mindedly looked at the time and said ''oh its 12.11''

and i said ''12+11 equals 23!! SPOOKY''

I didn't proceed to write the number on walls and all over myself though...

reply

haha of course none of this means anything its just funny. i got two stories. i was watching this with my roommates in our dorm. our dorm number is 1327 and i did the math that 27-3-1=23! ha. also i was txt'n my friend about it and after the movie we were just talking and with out noticing instead of typing "be" the txt came up "23" no joke.

Ya never go full retard.

i looked at my clock twice during this movie and just now, the first time it was 11:52 (during the middle of the movie)
the second time (right after i read your post) it was 12:52
the 52's cancel each other out, and 11+12=23

reply

the 52s would cancel each other out if you were subtracting...but you added the 11 and 12.

reply

i looked at my phone just now. and it said 23:23
then when i looked at the time the movie had got to, it was 58:18. divide 58 by 18 = 3.222222222 reccurring.
then i remembered that my friend had counted my stack of videos next to my bed that day. so i wondered just then how much it was, thinking "wouldnt it be wierd if it was 23" then i recounted. and it was.
i'm freaked out now.

a child without courage is like a night without stars

reply

Amazing how your phone reads 23:23 and you posted at 15:42.
You should buy a new phone.

reply

Your numbers were: 11:52 and 12:52

Now...

52 / 11 = 4,7

52 / 12 = 4,3

4,7 x 4.3 = 20,21

20 + 2 + 1 = 23

reply

What scared me was that Jim Carrey's character killed his girlfriend Laura on Feb. 10. I was born on February 10 and my girlfriend's name is Laura.

reply

Just kill her now and get it over with!!! it's hopelessly inevitable!! >_<!! darn you 23

reply

In the movie he says, the world will end on December 12, 2012, according to the Mayan Calendar. In 2012 i'll be 23! Haha.

Also after i watched it for the first time, i turned on the tv guide, and on the first channel was the show '20 to 1' 20+1, equals 21, and if you look at to as number 2, then add it all together you get...23!

Means nothing, but it was funny to me.

reply

Oh yeah?! Well get this.... I was combing my hair, when I was done there were 23 hairs in my comb..... I'm bald!!!!

hahahah, that's probably the funniest thing I've ever read on these boards!!!

reply

Almost any combination of numbers WILL equal 23!! It's January 27th and 10:54am 27-4=23 you can add any numbers and it will equal 23. I was born June 1st at 4:42pm, 4+4=8 8x3=24-1=23. I can come up with any combination of numbers and make them = 23. My mother's birthday, 1-24, 24-1=23, my dad was born March 23rd. My grandfather was born 6-17, 17+6=23. My grandmother was born 11-12, 12+11-23.

I put 12 pairs of socks in the drier but only 23 came out.

What the...................?

I was over at a friends house, and decided to watch this movie. He already went to bed, and I was watching it on his computer. So about halfway in the movie, I wanted to know the time. I minimalized Windows Media Player, and checked the time. 23:23

I was quite spooked for a time there.

I'm not making this up, it really happened.

I will eat your soul and crap delicious chicken nuggets.

reply

I also got a funny coincidence story: while watching the movie I felt the need for a little test, paused the movie randomly and added all the numbers of the time index (59:54) - what did i get? :)

It's really 100% true, i didn't make it up!

reply

my crazy story=

my name has 4 letters, with them added together it equals like 78 divide that by the 4 letters and you have 19.5 + 4 letters = 23.5 and what is 5? 2 + 3.
lol i know that one is a bit stretched but my girlfriends name adds up to 32, 23 reversed.
we watched the movie together.
i havent written on my arms or the walls yet but i actually want to find more things that add up to 23, hopefully i dnt go crazy though...

reply

I just saw this movie for the first time today. I got it from Netflix about 2 weeks ago and its just been sitting.

For no apparent reason, I picked today to watch it. I didn't realize until it was over what today is:

Oct. 23

I was playing with a deck of cards (which i must have stolen from my school many years ago) anyway this deck was deck number 3 so all the cards have 3 written on the back. for what ever reason there was a number 2 face up next to a face down card... making 23!! infront of me!! it was insane!! im not though... ...

I think you people are just looking for 23

Palin 2012

reply

I rented this movie to watch on a Saturday night. The movie ended around midnight. After checking the calendar I realized it was November..23rd..:D

reply

I just realized that I saw it on November 23rd. And it wasn't on purpose. x)

reply

I was just reading all the posts submitted here... One post mentioned the whole "World ending on december 12 2012" and then another post supported Palin for 2012.
Wouldn't it be funny if Palin made the world go boom! by being elected president in the 2012 election?

Talk about being 23!

reply

Quote: Palin 2012

20+1+2=23?
Now that's a coincidence!

So, like, I'm sixteen, and I was thirteen when I first saw this, and I was with someone four years older than me. This was three years ago. Sixteen, plus three, plus four equals twenty-three.

I was supposed to be born on the twenty-third of May.

My initials J and M add up to 23

reply

dude, I had weirder experience after watching this. I was lying in bed trying to sleep, then while in a half dream i muttered to myself "23", opened my eyes and it was 11:23pm................ugh

what's even weirder that that though?? I didn't watch this movie!!!

reply

Isn't the world supposed to end in 2012 according to the mayan calendar? Separate the first two from the number and the add the 1 with the second two. It equals 3, the join the first 2 with 3 and it results in 23. YAYAYAYAY, so spooky. Morons.

reply

no the guy just died before he could finish the calender

reply

while I was watching the movie I was drinking a can of dr.pepper and I noticed that the number 23 was in bold numbers, true story

reply

The thing that the movie didn't imply well, was the fact that followed by the numbers bad things would generally happen or atleast begin sprouting. It wasn;t shown to well as it was more a personal story, and thinking outside the box was left to the viewer.

"Can you look at a situation without naming it?, Naming it, making it a word, causes fear".

reply

Im watching the movie right now and its almost over and its 2:11. I hope it doesn't end in 10 minutes.

reply

credits rolling, 2:24

To the previous poster.. according to the time that you posted (for me anyway) you posted at (Thu Dec 4 2008 23:24:49) ;D
Just finished the movie btw.

Edit:
Haha. Before watching this movie I was part way into the first Harry Potter film and I continued watching it after I finished this movie (just forgot to edit my post...) Anyway right when Harry gets onto platform 9 3/4 and sees the train, the number on the front of the train is 5972, when I saw it I was like, wouldn't that be funny if it added up to 23? And what do you know.. it does :P

reply

here are my relations to 23

I was born on March 20: 03/20, 3+20=23

My mom was 32 when she had me, 23 backwards

My last name adds up to 69. Divide 69 by 3 (i have 3 middle names, weird i know) and the answer is 23. This one is really reaching though.

My favorite drink is Dr. Pepper. For those that don't know, Dr. Pepper is known for its "23 flavors."



Thats all I came up with. I don't really believe in this 23 thing. You can make almost any number if you try hard enough.
For instance if this movie was called "The Number 5": all those times I came up with 23, I could just add them together and get 5.

One reason 23 might be noticed alot is because the numbers "2" and "3" are beside each other when you count (1,2,3,4). So if you were obsessed with 23, you would see it every time something was numbered or counted.

When we were about to start the movie, the time was 22:33 [23 being in the middle] and my sister went to check the washing machine and it said 23 minutes left. During the movie, my sister reminded me that our house number of our address was 23, ooooh spooky...haha not really.
