11:11 in popular culture, Jake Owen edition

#1 Post by themanintheseersuckersuit » Sun May 29, 2016 3:24 pm

From the song Good Timing


Look up to that sky girl
It’s a full moon night
You just broke up with somebody
Baby so did I
Just the other night, girl

Can you believe what time it is?
11:11, let’s make a wish
We’re gonna have a night we’ll never forget
And it ain’t over yet
Girl we got some good timing

Suitguy is not bitter.

feels he represents the many educated and rational onlookers who believe that the hysterical denouncement of lay scepticism is both unwarranted and counter-productive

The problem, then, is that such calls do not address an opposition audience so much as they signal virtue. They talk past those who need convincing. They ignore actual facts and counterargument. And they are irreparably smug.

Yay!

Funny thing about when I picked 1111 as my lucky talisman is that I had never heard about the wish thing.

We were just supposed to pick something that you wouldn't see all the time but when you did see it, it would make you happy. And I had just gotten one of those 'digital' clocks which had numbers that flipped over to show the time.

11:11 is often the first time I wake up during the night. :(
