awkward? 47 is the answer! not sure what the question is tho :/
Seriously awkward number. I can’t even say it out loud without getting my mom-pants in a knot.
well, if it ain’t 69…it’s awkward all right!
Well, at least it’s not 103. God I hate that number. And 59.

Holy crap, that is awkward. (Yeah, I know, it’s months later and whatnot.)

I thought it was the answer. Oh wait, that’s 42.
how right you are!
Well it IS the ultimate answer to everything.
41 is actually the answer to everything… unless there’s been inflation since they taught us that in school…
I dislike prime numbers.
Someone needs to rethink this. For my money, 53 is way more awkward.
47 is my all-time favorite number. It’s everywhere.
POMONA COLLEGE. How awkward.
I really don’t see how 47 is awkward, or any other number for that matter.
What am I missing?
37 is the randomest number.
What is 47? In short, 47 appears to be the quintessential random number of the universe. In other words, when a number appears randomly, more often than not, that number is 47. In other other words, if you asked people to pick a number at random, more often than not, that number would be 47. Of course, if 47 shows up more than any other number then it isn’t truly random, but using the word random makes the whole phenomenon easier to describe.
Welcome to The Twilight Zone
Missy, The number that is the answer, but not the question is 42… And if you like this website you’ll love the book “Hitchhiker’s guide to the galaxy”…
BUY MY BOOK!!!!
Oh my god…Douglas Adams is blogging from beyond the grave!
47 is the ultimate answer but the ultimate question is what is the ultimate question
CHIRP. CHIRP CHIRP CHIRP.
This used to be my favourite number as a child. Seriously. Thanks for the link, Denise!

awkward number of chromosomes
Too bad this wasn’t posted on 5/7/9. But then again, that would have made it just plain odd.
I hate the number because of stupid JJ Abrams flashing it everywhere like the holy grail on Alias and it ended up to mean squat. But I’m not bitter.
Ahh… thank you hayley & Douglas Adams!! No… I think 33 or 34 are the two most awkward numbers!!
…or was it 88 & 84?
HuH?
Pomona College! chirp chirp chirp
ALIAS
I’ll bet you went through 46 other numbers before you got to this one…
Awkward? 47 is my “go to” number! I always have 47 loads of laundry to do, 47 emails to answer, and 47 stops to make on the way home.

Weird, 74 has been my favorite number since I was a child, but I’ve always disliked 47.
I like 11 which is 7 + 4 and I like 23 which is the conversion into Celsius of 74 degrees Fahrenheit.
But 47? Ick.
47 is my favorite number.
but since i love awkward, its okay.
in the videogame hitman, his number is 47. and in my favorite tv show, alias, 47 is used in almost every episode.
but…oh well. i accept its awkwardness and love it anyway.
a pity there are only 43 comments… four more comments to go and we have awkward comments too
Would 47 be the new 42?
Three more comments to go!
44+1
Guess what?
47 COMMENTS!
48
It’s also awkward the 47th commenter didn’t notice such.
I have always loved the number 47. I see it everywhere and I have a whole photo album of it in random places.
thats not wierd or[ anything………..
hhahhahah ooh my goodness!! thats my lucky number!
does that make me forever awkward?
To many mathmeticians, 13 is an extremely awkward #.
I find this offensive!
Uhhh…what’s so awkward about the number 47? Is there some memo I didn’t get?
That’s an awkward family photo if I ever saw one.
anyone ever thought of 23 as a phenomenal number? i see that more often than 47 . . .
and since when are numbers awkward? i must have missed something =/
23.5*2=47 insert Xfiles music here
so what if 47 shows up a lot. I dont care
I can’t believe I wasted 47 seconds of my life reading all these posts.
I don’t get it.
I was born at 2:47
