Clint Eastwood = Old West Action is still my favorite serendiptious anagram.
I also like the mathematically correct
ELEVEN PLUS TWO = TWELVE PLUS ONE
especially because it's also an numeric anagram
11 + 2 = 12 + 1

- jdthedisciple 3y agookay that one caught me off guard
- version_five 3y agoDoes that count as Godwinning the anagrams discussion?

- raverbashing 3y ago> ELEVEN PLUS TWO = TWELVE PLUS ONE Goedel's incompleteness theorem fans would be drooling all over this
- hgsgm 3y agoWhy?
- raverbashing 3y agoBecause it would be another way of expressing this idea https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G%C3%B6del_numbering https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G%C3%B6del_numbering (yes it's not easy to understand)
- mfragin 3y agoThings like that explain how some people get obsessed with numerology. Except, I find the anagrams like you and the previous commenter mentioned to be more impressive than anything numerologists produce. Some of those are almost creepy in how they make so much sense.
- carlmr 3y agoWe're pattern matching machines, if you throw enough randomness at us we will find patterns anyway. Probably because looking at evolution it's more helpful to see a predator that isn't there, than to miss a predator that is there. It intuitively makes sense that we would tilt towards false positives over false negatives in our perception. Since one has a higher cost attached than the other. Which is why I find some of the discussion arround whether GPTs are intelligent interesting. I see the argument quite often that they merely match patterns and combine things. Which to me seems very much akin to us. They lack the ability to interact with the world and there is no feedback loop as of now, but it seems to me that there is something very human to the AI we programmed.
- madcaptenor 3y agoThe Spanish translation of this is ONCE MAS CUATRO = CATORCE MAS UNO (11 + 4 = 14 + 1).
