That's because your brain wound up set up to see numerical order so when you see two numbers in order, 7 and 8, that result in smaller numbers that are also in order, 5 and 6, which of course lead into the former two, it tricks your brain into thinking that it's wrong because it's somewhat backwards.
Likely depends on person to person since not everyone's brains set up numbers the same way.

@DarkwolfX37

Maybe? I mean, it seems kind of ad hoc.

To whom it may concern:

If any of you who dont have immediate contact to me want it, PM me. Ill provide you with the means to do so.

@souleaterfan320

I have immediate contact to you, David, and Blitz.

HOWEVER
Jacoobie, you have not created a Skype like you said you would when you became college.

It's quite a strange phenomenon.

@Legend

I even tried searching it to see if anyone else had realised, considering how many people thought the same way, but amazingly, nobody had ever mentioned it. maybe I'll start a trend lol

I remember it more than the others for that reason.

@Legend

Someone I told abuot it said that because it was so weird, they forgot about it all the time and had to force themselves to remember it. Now, whenever they need 7*8, they get it immediately--more immediately than other numbers. best of both worlds amirite

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by whizzball1>

I actually can agree with this.

@Legend

Really? Everybody I've said this to also agrees. It's incidentally the only one I forget, too, out of the entire multiplication table. The only weird one.

Myriad Reality

For some reason, I've always felt like 7 * 8 = 56 is really weird. Like, there's no reason at all behind it. Whenever I hear or use 7 * 8 = 56, it just feels weird.

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

Yea, I'm probably going to leave myriad reality for now.

My main reasons why are A: I don't feel like I'm as invested in this as you guys are and B: I don't have any real ideas on what I want to do with Nix or Alan.

So for now I'm gonna step back and see if I can't learn how to make my own plots and develop a character, and once I've figured out how to do that I'll come back and ask if i can join again. Because as of right now, I have no ideas for any new abilities Nix might get, and I have no clue on how she would get them. Same goes for Alan, and so until I've figured out what I want to do long term and how to make stories in which my characters grow, I'm gonna step back from this unique role play and only come back when I feel I can add something to it.

@Darlit Glitch

I'll respect what you feel you need to do. I'd just like to mention, since it's relevant, that when I first joined MR, I, too, wasn't very good at making my own plots. In fact, it was quite a long while before I was really able to write any meaningful plots. To be fair, I wasn't very good at roleplaying or writing back then. But a lot of the reason I'm better now is because I stayed, watched, and learned from the others.

Another random thing because I'm feeling emotional-but-not-really: we've always seen MR as a reality. It's something special to us because we're in it. It's not necessarily about adding to the roleplay or making it better (although we strive to do that as best as we can, or we'd never have anything to do); the experience is what we're all here for.

I could have sworn Jonny said it too just the other day.

@Intrepid

No, David threatened to stab me.

it is pretty flexible
but I'd say it's more fluid

@whizzball1

because that's a joke that makes sense and is funny

I'd say it's more gelatinous than anything.
