Revision as of 16:01, 24 July 2009

Three is the most common magic number. Because it is so awesome, some guy even said it was THE magic number, as in, the one to rule them all.

Three is a crappy approximation to pi, but some retards go as far as to say that three is actually just four in disguise.

Occurrences

• There are three dimensions in the real world.
• There are three directions on the internets: back, forward and up. You cannot go down.
