K-Squared Ramblings

Sci-Firewire

You know how you see some numbers in one context so often that you think of that meaning when you see them somewhere else? Seriously: If you’ve spent a lot of time on the web and you notice the clock reading 4:04, or a price coming up as $4.04, etc., chances are you find it funny, right? It’s like realizing that someone’s initials are A.T.M.

Well, I was looking at the Star Wars Trilogy on Amazon and noticed it had 1394 reviews:

I saw that number, and my mind instantly thought “Firewire.”

(Yes, the question of the day is, “How can I make a post about Star Wars even more geeky?”)
