Is 16 and 19 really that bad? (self.asklemmy)

So, my good friend (18m) had a falling out with his ex (19m) because the ex bullied him and also because he is apparently dating a 16f, so my friend thinks he is a pedophile for obvious reasons (adult + minor).

I can see why this would be considered bad but also, when I turn 16, my girlfriend will be 19 too, as I am currently a young sophomore who is about 3 years younger than her girlfriend, a senior.

I thought this post was about the numbers and ... Well, I like 16. It's got a few neat math things going on. 19 is a prime, but doesn't have much else going on for it.

edit: I was thinking that 16x3 was 38 and that 19x2 was 38, which would be interesting. However, 16x3 is 48, which I love, while 19x2 is indeed 38, which is still pretty cool. On the other hand, 64 is fun, while 57 is super duper boring.

Maybe my wife is right when she says I'm neurodivergent.

edit: This is pleasing to me.

AQ-50: "Are you fascinated by numbers?"

[–] toynbee@lemmy.world 2 points 5 days ago

No, but I'm friends with them.

Apparently AQ-50 is an autism test. Now I feel called out.
