Like comics:
"When I grow up, I'm not going to read the newspaper and I'm not going to follow complex issues and I'm not going to vote. That way I can complain when the government doesn't represent me. Then, when everything goes down the tubes, I can say the system doesn't work and justify my further lack of participation." (Calvin and Hobbes)

Like numbers and symmetrical things:
135 = 1^1 + 3^2 + 5^3 ... 1306 = 1^1 + 3^2 + 0^3 + 6^4
175 = 1^1 + 7^2 + 5^3 ... 1676 = 1^1 + 6^2 + 7^3 + 6^4
518 = 5^1 + 1^2 + 8^3 ... 2427 = 2^1 + 4^2 + 2^3 + 7^4
598 = 5^1 + 9^2 + 8^3
