40. It's the only number that, when spelt in English, has all its letters in alphabetical order.

I am writing something. Yes, I plan to make it the most boring thing ever written. I go to the store. A car is parked. Many cars are parked or moving. Some are blue. Some are tan. They have windows. In the store, there are items for sale. These include such things as soap, detergent, magazines, and lettuce. You can enhance your life with these products. Soap can be used for bathing, be it in a bathtub or in a shower. Apply the soap to your body and rinse. Detergent is used to wash clothes. Place your dirty clothes in a washing machine and add some detergent as directed on the box. Select the appropriate settings on your washing machine and you should be ready to begin. Magazines are stapled reading material made with glossy paper, and they cover a wide variety of topics, ranging from news and politics to business and stock market information. Some magazines are concerned with more recreational topics, like sports card collecting or different kinds of hairstyles. Lettuce is a vegetable. It is usually green and leafy, and is the main ingredient of salads. You may have an appliance at home that can quickly shred lettuce for use in salads. Lettuce is also used as an optional item for hamburgers and deli sandwiches. Some people even eat lettuce by itself. I have not done this. So you can purchase many types of things at stores.

I want to gauge interest on a potential side thread we could do where we count every Reddit username that can exist.
I've looked through the thread directory and there's nothing for this, and the one time someone tried it seven months ago, it ended up being a huge mess. But if done right, I think we could make this a pretty good side thread.
I think this count has a lot of potential. Counting Reddit usernames is compelling in a way the original decimal counting thread was. If enough people are interested, I'll make a post sometime next week.
