User blog:Mf99k/618 and Gravity Falls

(copied from my DA)

you guys have noticed the number, right? It's pretty reoccurring. I know 6/18 is Alex Hirsch's birthday. But how many of you are obsessed with your date of birth. I have the same birthday as elvis and I don't go putting up "108" everywhere. So where exactly in the show is this number seen?:*It's The Mystery Shack's address. Now, when I first noticed this number, I assumed its meaning was similar to the meaning it had in TDROTI:[link]That's something not related to Gravity Falls at all. The episode aired in the summer 11 days after Gravity Falls did, preventing either show from using each other's ideas unless they collaborated. Let's look more into the number itself. the number 1.618 is the golden ratio, a number studied and praised by mathematicians and scientists for centuries. it is represented by the greek letter Phi ✴. -0.618 is the inverse of this number. lets look at another number: 6666+6+6=18 obvious enough.''"The number of the beast is six". ''[link]  [link]Interesting. But I don't think that there's six journals like this might imply. The only way that would work is if the books weren't written in order. WAAAAAIIIT I just remembered there's more. Mabel found out about the book at 6:18 in Tourist TrappedGravity Falls was founded in 1863 apparently  18=6x3 (blah that one's stupid)    ___________✴Before I knew about the number Phi, I had a GF OC named Phantom Phi.The number 618 probably shows up more often in my life than it does in Gravity Falls: constantly on Trig homework, [insert confidential information here], on the Gideon Bible I found in my attic (pg. 618 was bookmarked), either omitted or made obvious on street addresses, etc., etc. Also the biofeedback machine made a weird sound when one of the data levels hit 618. and my next appointment for something I'm not saying is on 6/18.
