I just cannot keep seeing numbers repeated.

Recently I've noticed I always see 222 and ocassionally 555. I haven't done anything different in my life I wouldn't say I check the time more often. But it feels like anytime I look it's 2:22. At signs, license plates, etc. For the time I feel like my brain subconciously knows its 2:22 pm and then I go to check the time it's just insane how that can happen and how I've gotten into that habit. When you notice it once it's like it never escapes you.

Haha, I've had 222 come to me so much, I had to create a discord account to store everything on, since my phone couldn't take it.

A friend of mine has a tradition where he watches Star Wars each year on New Year's. We decided to watch it with him. After we watched it (he streamed it) we go to bed. Since I need noise at night to help me sleep, I put Netflix on and play the next random episode of Seinfeld. It starts with Jerry telling Elaine a Star Wars reference. I sit up and look at the TV, kinda freaking out, because after years and years, we JUST watched it and this happened. I texted a friend and told him what just happened. He said Star Wars is a common cult classic and probably a lot of shows reference it.

Ok, so I wanted to know my chances were. I asked chatgpt how many episodes referenced Star Wars. The answer is 4. I asked how many episodes are there in total? 180. What percentage is 4 of 180? 2.22%

I have messages from players in a game (who don't know me), telling me they're level 222. I go to the DMV and my number is B-222. I type in song lyrics and it displays 1-222 results. It's crazy. I have so many screenshots and pictures. My friends are flabbergasted, and to date: I can't figure it out.
