Random Talk Topic

Hello Just Random Chat

Hi @Nezuko! :wave: Welcome to the iNat Forum! :blush: :heart:

FYI, the culture of this forum is more ā€œadultā€ and ā€œseriousā€ . . . they don’t really do random chat :face_with_monocle:

However, random chat DOES happen, A LOT, on the iNat Discord :crazy_face:, which you can join here:

TBF though, adults also commonly do casual conversation even in more serious interests / hobbies. I know it doesn’t happen on this forum as much but its possible lol

No powers of ten are multiples of seven :), is that just random talk?

Although if it’s actually randomness you want to talk about, did you know that when asked to choose a random number between 1 and 100, a disproportionate number of people choose 37. 73 is also popular. Apparently that number just ā€˜feels random’ to us. whereas numbers like 50 do not ā€˜feel random’. Something to do with our lack of frequent exposure to prime numbers in everyday life, and 37 being a prime number with two prime digits. Maybe.

Welcome to the forum. Random is good. Sometimes.

Speaking of the 37 and 73 thing, that makes a lot of sense to me at least since western cultures use even numbers a lot more than uneven ones. I think its to do with them prioritising perfection and symmetry rather than accepting imperfections and unsymmetrical designs, and that those cultures unfortunately dominate much of the world.

Hi folks, I’ve unlisted and am closing this topic. There are countless places on the internet for random talk, and even the unofficial iNat discord. This place is for talking about INaturalist. :heart:
