How do you feel about the gender of numerals?
Harmony: Somebody remembered to pick me up the sweetest unicorn. Guess someone was feeling guilty for standing me up in tenth grade. Brad: What? Had to get her something. She sired me. Peaches: Sire-whipped.

Because books.
Gray is gray, because I was raised here, but I will admit that when I see "grey" it's ghostly and foggy and ethereal.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Just like "your" and "you're" sound different.
Your sounds like yore. You're sounds like ewer.

Occasionally I’m callous and strange
$50 seems like a lot for a drug store mouth guard. i buy 2 at a time from amazon.com for less.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Just like "your" and "you're" sound different.
Yes. In any given situation, one of them sounds like WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONGDIDDLEY WRONG.

I could be persuaded that round numerals had a female cast, while linerar ones felt more male.
I used to read regular playing cards a letter at a time, one letter per card, on a shape recognition basis. ::shrug::

I don't want to think about numbers having sex.

How do you feel about the gender of numerals?
Oh god. I don't have that particular issue, but one surefire lapcounting measure for me is to factor down to primes. I've learned I hate primes over 5. It's completely irrational and visceral, and almost funny how negative a reaction some primes garner from me (I hate 37! and 43! 59 can bite me!) Certain numbers, I love, like my house number (3612.)
I never knew I had that in me.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I don't want to think about numbers having sex.
How do you think bigger numbers get made? It's not called multiplication for nothing.
I am dispirited about my ability to work in the office. It's not looking good. It is looking stinky.
