symbols
Sometimes when I try to write out a number, I use the number as a letter. Accidentally, of course (or maybe subconsciously is a better word).
Observe.
5ive.
6ix.
7even.
8ight.
9ine.
I think that "6ix" is a particularly good case.
Creation Story:
When I was in high school, Dr. Whittington made us keep a portfolio of our assignments each six week period. At the top of my table of contents, I would inevitably write "4th 6ix Weeks" (or whichever) and not notice until someone pointed it out. That is the origin of this tale.
