Sorry to make you memorize this random string of digits. If it helps, it can also double as a mnemonic for remembering your young relatives’ birthdays, if they happened to have been born on February 5th, 2018.

    My brain: “Ugh I suck at memorizing random numbers! I just know I won’t be able to remember that.”

    Also my brain: “Oh a fire/medical emergency/… - lets call emergency services!” immediately followed by "♪ 0118999881999119725…3 ♪ "
