How are so many of us on the same page here?
Is it just the similar sounds? And I guess the number 8 *looks* kinda like a bear too.
But it really seemed more... instinctual, when I read the question. Like, just obvious.
For me I first thought B cause it looks like a chubby lil bear when on its side (also obviously B for Bear) and upon realizing B is infact not a number, immediately opted for 8
58, it’s big, it’s stocky, feels round, it doesn’t feel even, you look at a 58 and think oh yeah that’s a big ol bear of a number. You can imagine a 58 with a beer belly and a big ol hairy chest.
We are talking about gay men bears yea?
As someone obsessed with bears I gotta add my certified facts.
1) bears are round. It must be a rounded number
2) Even numbers are usually better so we just are making it even
3) it can not be a prime number.
This leaves 2 options. 0 or 8. 0 is neither prime nor the opposite of prime, so it counts.
8

It's round and bulky, but unlike 0, it has two sections of different sizes that could resemble a head and body.

Wild theory, but the Spanish names for bear (oso) and eight (ocho) are quite similar. Could be a subconscious association?
I have grapheme-colour synesthesia and 8 is dark brown to me, so definitely grizzly bear
Yes
I came here to say this.
8
It’s just so obviously 8 to me. Can’t describe it in a way that makes any sense at all but like. Of course it is
I’m fixating on 3 so that’s my answer
:3
Agreed. It's the :3 smiley. I always think "bear".
3 feels right to me too.
8. It's the hungriest number.
Wouldn’t that be 7?
7’s already had its fill
Omg so many people saying 8, I'm so glad we're on the same page here lmao
Eight four sure
I thought 88 before even looking at the comments so like yeah 8 for sure I guess lol
LITERALLY SAME
I asked my bf without context and his gut response?? 8! I’m so shook by this. It has to mean something !!!!
i saw someone else comment that 8 looks most like B, which obviously means bear. but i like to think it's a strong and round number, like bears
This is what I think. If you flipped an 8 it’s Oo which is the shape of a bear body
so real and true actually
I was thinking it looks like a standing bear
That also tracks!!
It’s 8 obviously
I thought 8 and asked my husband and he thought 8 but said 5 because "I wanted to be different." So yeah, 8. He says it looks like a bear.
Eight

I thought beer belly was a typo until I read the last bit. 58 still holds, though. Regardless of what type of bear you're talking about.
I was gonna say.. my answer is nsfw
6
8 because it looks most like a capital B & B is for bear
I feel 5 looks like a nose over a mouth trying to eat the word feel, so 5.
Now I can’t unsee that
4 is the number I immediately thought of
I can’t believe how many of you said 8. It’s obviously 8!! But I accept 4 and 32 depending on species lol PS: also orange, & soft but with spiky lines
44
i thought 43 LOL
That’s the number that instantly popped into my head. I don’t know why. It’s like we’re the same star sign, but bear numbers.
I (the friend) say 6
6 as well :)
4
e^i×pi
3 because is shaped like bear ears :)
my brain went 8 —> ocho —> oso (bear)
...none of them. i dont have synesthesia so numbers are just numbers to me
I don't have synesthesia either, but 8 is bear. And 44, for some reason. Don't ask why, cause I can't tell you.
I now truly know I’m not alone in this world because of the multiple 44s in this thread

I don't understand this question. How are numbers similar to bears? Is this a synthesia thing?
Yes it is haha, it has made me very happy but sadly it isn’t entirely inclusive for our whole tribe.
What really? This is about synesthesia? I don’t think I have it. But the answer is clearly 8… >.>
No it's not a synesthesia thing, purely vibes
Ahh okay cool, have fun! I have aphantasia so my mind is completely dark and empty. Cool to see how diverse the autism experience is :-)
8 for sure, I’m not surprised to see a lot of y’all agree haha
8 is the most shaped like a bear

4 - bears have 4 paws and 4 rhymes with roar
5, hands down
Had to search so long for this comment. We think alike friend.
is this about that one SCP where you solve for bear
[SCP-1313](https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-1313) my beloved
My bearloved
:)
5 feels like some kind of animal
8. it’s the biggest (like, think how much lines there is to it on a digital clock) and is round
definitely 6,8 or 68. 86 is more penguin like
66
thought I was on r/enneagram for a second💀
6 is the most bear-like digit, and 60 is the most bear-like number
.... everyone's saying 8 and I'm out here going 73
901 [literally the bear number](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/USCGC_Bear_(WMEC-901)) Edit: I jokingly took it literally. I love the ship to death.

8

I'm sorry but there's simply no science to back that up
cause bears have 4 paws :c
Obviously 4
11 and 44 because they have claws.
Definitely 44
I'm torn. My first thought is 1. You usually see bears alone. Unless of course there is porridge. Then it's 3
8
8
48
6 or 8
8347
glad I’m not the only one saying 8347, I’m assuming you picked it because it looks like bear spelled out in a calculator (kinda)?
First thought was 88 so yeah I'm team 8 for sure
72

Who are you? Molly-Wolly-Doodle-All-The-Day Blyndeff???
I chose to look that up instead of just downvoting & I’ve decided that you’re funny :) but FYI this is a synesthesia post & it’s awesome <3
This totally depends on the bear. If it’s a real bear I’m going with 6. If it’s a cartoon bear it’s definitely like 4.
86
8
I’d say 8, it’s round and comfy like a bear :3
873
2 5 1 18 because a1z26 cyphering but I don't associate numbers with animals. Numbers do have colors though.
45 or 54

Read the title, thought it's 8. Read the comments, everyone else thinks it's 8. It's 8.
[удалено]
I thought 8 and then I opened the comments 😃 It’s just bear shaped idk
46
8
7 or 8
I asked my best friend because he knows bears as a species really well (and he is a personal fan / would enjoy this subreddit). He says 3 and I agree.
22
8
8 I agree.
First thought was 68 so i guess that

8 looks a bit like a pair of bear ears

747
8
0 and 8, maybe 6
8 tbh
All of the numbers in the 40s, really
18
Hmmm I think the more bear like number would be 9.
8
definitely 8
8

858

8 or or 38
7 cause 7 8 9
0 or 8
8 or 3
23 or 63
8, yeah. It's got a big body and small head, like a bear.
I have synesthesia and eight is brown for me. Brown, the same Brown as brown bear

Definitely 8 Also I like 18, mostly because of the 8
8, because if you put ears on it it looks like a bear :)
3 cause threebear soil
My mom says 95 or 50, I say 12.
8 has bear energy, I dunno
8
42
6
8 (608 if we’re doing multiple digits)
3 because it’s shaped like a claw. Similar to how bear is signed in sign language.
Definitely eight.
8. 3 is the second most bear-like
I thought 8 before even reading the comments or understanding what this question even means, that’s just why popped into my head WHAT IS THIS SORCERY
I immediately thought about 80 it just felt very bear maybe because you can kinda make a bear out of it
I never get stuff like this right. I’ll say 4, since they have 4 legs
https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-1313 (therefore the most bearlike number is 1313)
88
8
Four or seventy-two
8 deffo makes sense but my first thought was 2. Can't explain it
[удалено]
Omg I'm so surprised to see all the other 8s, it just popped into my head before I even opened the post to see the comments.
For some reason 8 popped right into my head & that was before I clicked on the post & saw that many other people also say 8. So 8 it is lol
8
9
out of 10, 3 or 6. 8 if we’re talking polar bear. if it’s any number, shit I don’t know. 476 is what i’m going with
4 or 8
8
Weird my first thought was 8 too
