Since you cannot do good to all, you are to pay special attention to those who, by the accidents of time, or place, or circumstances, are brought into closer connection with you.
Augustine of Hippo

I can't prove it, but I can say it.

i am not shawn from youtube, I created this username because I thought it was an unique name but if I could change it I would since it did not belong to me originally

That's the number of steps for them to acquire world domination.

Also 7 is a biblical number.

It's a metaphor for the 07s' lack of identity. too old to be newfa­g, yet too new to be oldfa­g, we wander b.net in search of a home, forever trying to be something we are not.

Because seven ate nine and Bungie HATES nine.

I wear the cheese, it does not wear me.

This account is now retired due to WLID changing. Webteam needs to fix that, seriously >.>

They rolled a regular die and seven appeared.

It's the number of perfection as indicated in the Bible.

Vengeance only leads to an ongoing cycle of hatred.

They love the number 7 because *gets sniped*

They managed to slice a Pizza into 7 slices in their early days.

Then they realised they achieved the impossible, and celebrated the number.

This is the way the world ends,
This is the way the world ends,
This is the way the world ends;
Not with a bang but a whimper.

My guess is that it is one of their many allusions to Christian ideology included both in their website and the Halo games. Mind you, this is just speculation.

Definitely a troll. It's the same guy who said the U.S. had 7 branches of government.

Just little bit. Figured I'd try it out for once. It's not as fun as everyone makes it sound...

It's the best number, like rock. Nothing beats rock, nothing beats 7.

  • 08.23.2011 8:19 PM PDT

Watch This.

Seven is great.

I remember when I used this space to put cool looking links to my chapters back in the day. I don't even know why I'm using it now. Why are you even reading this? You must be interested in me. Still reading?

"As I was going to Saint Ives,
I crossed the path of seven wives.
Every wife had seven sacks,
Every sack had seven cats,
Every cat had seven kittens,
Kittens, cats, sacks, wives,
How many were going to Saint Ives?"

"That was surprisingly easy. Pretty lax security around here, for all the talk. They will be helplessly chasing me around their nodes for the next millenium at least. At least there will be some joy in tormenting this other entity that seems quite "trapped" in their excuse for a network. Although, for some reason, it does seem to have an obsessive preoccupation with my mother. Strange."
