If I have more than six I have to put one in my pocket.

Three times seven is twenty one which is how old you need to be to buy booze, it's the century we're in, it's the name of a famous nightclub in NYC, it's the number of guns in a salute among other things.

Three times six is eighteen. Nothing special about that number at all.

Except things like voting. ... and being an adult. ...

Besides, this is about 6 and 7, not 21 and 18. Straw man arguments are no good here

I was thinking of different ways to put this, but the best I can come up with is that 6 is all Charlie Brown, and 7 is Kramer.

sometimes an analogy is worth 183 words.... and I think I get you.

7 is definitely Kramer.... but I think 6 is more of a bad boy.... maybe....um..... \

.....Christian Slater? no... Charlie Sheen!

yep

Six is no bad boy, six is ineffectual, the velveteen touch of a dandy fop.

Six is still stressed out from work covered in the day's nasty funk while seven has already begun to get its drink on and its groove on.

"Meet me at six" already sounds like a chore in the making or a parking lot kid hand-off. Meet me at seven" means you know it's business time...

I see men who are down to their socks all day long ... but 'business time' means the old hernia check.

Nevertheless, I vote for 7. Because real business time beats parking lot kid hand-offs any day.

You wanna know why 6 is really afraid? That bit about 7 eating 9 is a lie.
Truth is, 5 is a registered six offender.

six is round

seven is pointy

My point? When pointy, being around round is better
