infinity plus one

Perhaps the biggest number I could think of when I was, like, six years old.

(True: if you ask a mathematician, it's not really a "number." But when I was, like, six years old, I didn't give a flying fuck.)

(Also true: As soon as I said "infinity plus one," my buddy would cleverly outdo me with infinity plus two.)

You couldn't beat me, because I had my fingers crossed.

Yeah but I had all ten fingers crossed.

Yeah but I had all my fingers and toes crossed.

Yeah but I had infinity fingers crossed.

Yeah but I had infinity plus one fingers crossed. Ha ha ha ha ha!
