palooka commented on the word 7457
I think 7459 is much more melodious, more euphonious. 7457 sounds like a Boeing screw-up.

It says "LhSL" if you enter it into a calculator and invert the screen.

I'll naively categorise this as a burst of spontaneity rather than chemically-induced randomness.

yarb, I think it's LShL. Turn your monitor upside down and you'll see what I mean.
June 13, 2008
yarb commented on the word 7457
You're right, asativum. I was not only inverting my calculator vertically, but also horizontally.

Maybe it's a pictogram. But of what?
June 20, 2008
asativum commented on the word 7457
I suspect it's a pictogram of the numerals 7, 4, 5, and 7. But I could be wrong.
June 21, 2008
Prolagus commented on the word 7457
You may be right. I found some pictures of those numerals and they really look like our pictograms.

Wha...? I have not!
Er...what does that mean, bilby? *looking at right index finger*

Oh. That was arthritis, you see....
Okay, it was mock-arthritis. No noobs were poked in the making of this comment.
June 25, 2008
bilby commented on the word 7457
I don't recall any users called arthritis on here *frowns*
Look, at least put yourself to good use and stir the mock turtle soup with that right index finger. And toss in another sprinchling of 7457 please.
June 25, 2008
reesetee commented on the word 7457
Okay, but you'll be sorry. I'm not a very good mock-cook.
June 25, 2008
Prolagus commented on the word 7457
Bilby, after reading your last comment I realized the real meaning of this entry.
It's a typical dessert of a Chinese restaurant with a HUGE menu.
June 25, 2008
bilby commented on the word 7457
But which Chinese restaurant? Each of us should call the Chinese restaurants in our city of residence and order a 7457 to go.
June 25, 2008

It did cross my mind that 7457 might add up to something in predictive text for mobile phone keypads. But it doesn't appear to generate anything useful, at least in English.

Prolagus commented on the word 7457
Well, reesetee, what did the Chinese bikers bring you?
June 26, 2008
reesetee commented on the word 7457
Oh, they don't bike here; they drive. Otherwise they'd be run over flat by aggressive suburbanites.
So let's see. Sunrise's 7457 is Lake Tung Ting Shrimp. Ming's is Godzilla Roll. (You can have that one--eel? Eew.) And Golden Garden's is...well, it says "Hawail Five 'O.'" I'm not at all sure what a Hawail is, but it must be good with shrimp.
Anyone hungry?
June 26, 2008

What I want to know is, who is the mysterious someone (or some thing - dun dun DUN!!) who conveyed to the alien-carwoman that s/h/it wanted this number (of the beast??) added to Wordie?? And how was this message delivered, via Morse Code?

Hm, it would appear that 7457 is the postal code for Ecseny, a village in Somogy county, Hungary. I haven't figured out whether there are any Chinese restaurants there.
December 12, 2009
PossibleUnderscore commented on the word 7457
I'm sure there are. There must be at least one Chinese restaurant in every town. (Villiages, I'm not sure, but I'm saying there is.)

I was going to see what it would be in Roman numerals, but apparently anything bigger than 3,999 is just too hard to figure out.

I'm still discovering entries that had gotten the wordie treatment--often when I'm looking up something that I thought was new, but that bilby already entered a citation for in 2009.
Hi bilby from 2009!

vendingmachine commented on the word 7457
bilby was one of the major reasons why I joined wordie. He has an amazing sense of humor that drew me in instantly. yarb, reesetee, Prolagus, rolig, chained_bear, dontcry, gangerh, telofly, possibleunderscore, skipvia, frindley... there are others, I just can't remember their user names. Our beloved John was great fun, too. We were all reticent about the new owner of Wordie and, at first, hated the name Wordnik. Our concerns were unwarranted. Erin turned out to be a rock star and the name Wordnik is magnifico.
March 16, 2022
possibleunderscore commented on the word 7457
The end of Wordie was definitely the end of an era.... but sure doesn't mean what followed was bad. It's nice to log on after long hiatuses and still see the same names (or same users in your case vendingmachine!!) hanging out :) warms the heart

vendingmachine commented on the word 7457
I remember you well, rolig. So clever and kind.
I was frogapplause on Wordie. The reason I had to change my user name to vendingmachine was complicated at the time. I had some stalkers and they were relentless in tracking me down. Such is the life when it becomes semi-public. (I'm still a cartoonist on the largest comics website in the world.)
