No, it can't be intentional.

It's still on.

(Said evil number) sounds like the word for "death" in Chinese/Cantonese/whatever. So it's unlucky. So is giving someone a clock for their birfday there. :awesome:


Judging by that, it sounds like a lot of things there are unlucky, so we really can't base it off that.

//edit;; no wait, I've looked into it. The clock thing actually kinda makes sense. That's like saying you'd better count down the time to your death, and here's a clock to do so. :B

Also, I never even noticed that about my signature before. Wow. The world's gonna end more than once, judging by that.

The word "death" is pronounced... uh... well, I can't write it down... it starts with an sh, and then there is no vowel/consonant that is pronounced like how it's supposed to be. >_>
Anyways, "clock" in Chinese or whatever, is pronounced with two words, the first sounding much like how "death" is pronounced, and the other is.. well... ANYWAYS it just sounds like "DEATH TIME" if you take it apart piece by piece.

BELIF ME I GREWED UP WITH CHINESE LANGEJ.
