)It's pretty accurate, 11 even more so, but the problem with all these numerology stuff is that it usually fits everyone.

I read all of the descriptions and at least one part always represents some part of me This is just like fortune telling where people try to make the numbers say what they are. Turns out my full name gets me to 4 which really isn't me. | ||

The stuff that does fits then gets the effect of "oh hey that IS pretty accurate", and some general stuff that kind of fits situationally even adds to that. And then different people saying that their description is accurate only adds to the feeling, that there actualy is something to it. Then have some arbitrary basic math. It can't be anything advanced, because then people (especially people who fall for this stuff, sorry to sound arrogant) wouldn't be able to figure it out and wouldn't bother. And of course it doesn't bother people that the basis of the calculation, the name, is completely arbitrary as well. How this nonsense gets front paged is beyond me. Failing to get the point, look up the word "fun", it doesn't matter whether it's illogical as long as it's entertaining. | ||

It's front paged because this is fun to do. I'm sure the vast majority of the people doing this knows it's more or less arbitrary bs. But it's still amusing. You and people like u need torealize that and stop raining on our parade. Killjoys  I think my online name is more accurate then my RL name..........I should file for a name change iro rofl. Imma 7 woooooo! | ||
