The "23 Enigma" is the Discordian belief that all events are connected to the number 23, given enough ingenuity on the part of the interpreter. 23 is considered either lucky, unlucky, sacred to the goddess Eris, sinister, sacred to the unholy gods of the Cthulhu Mythos, or strange. Discordians regard this as a corollary of the Law of Fives. As with most numerological claims, the 23 enigma can be viewed as an example of apophenia, selection bias, and confirmation bias. In interviews, Wilson has acknowledged the self-fulfilling nature of the 23 enigma, implying that the real value of the Laws of Fives and Twenty-threes lies in their demonstration of the mind's power to perceive "truth" in nearly anything.

No word of a lie, every time I look at the clock, it says 9:11, or I ask my wife what time it is, and she'll say 9:11. For the past months I've been waking up at 9:11am.

I didn't see the movie, but I can reduce my birthday to 23 (kind of):

11/30

1+1=2/3+0=3

23

Is that a good thing or a bad thing? (Probably nothing - not really numerology, is it?)

EDIT: That is kind of spooky, starz.

Pick a different number. You'll find that if you choose something like 42 or 88 or whatever that you'll start seeing that number everywhere too. Then you'll realize that it just what you choose to notice and not that the number actually has any significance.
