According to Sheldon Cooper, “the best number is 73. Why? 73 is the 21st prime number. Its mirror, 37, is the 12th and its mirror, 21, is the product of multiplying 7 and 3… and in binary 73 is a palindrome, 1001001, which backwards is 1001001.”

63 is a fine number, but it is no 73.

Ugh. I don’t like the phrase, honestly i don’t, but it really is nerd blackface isn’t it. The fact he has to explain what a palindrome is to get the lolz says a lot really.

Anyway, it’s 42 and that is the end of that. dusts off hands
