I also do not like having my volume or my AC set to an odd number...

Unless it ends in 5... Which as we all know is the even-est odd number.

7 gets a reprieve too, because it's the coolest number.

Does anyone else here like setting it to prime numbers? Even numbers are so boring. Also, prime numbers are prime in every number base, while the concept of even numbers doesn't translate.

Prime all the way for me too; cruise control, volume, temp settings, PIN numbers, etc.

For me it's the itchy clothes. They really drive me crazy.
