When reading braille numbers do you sometimes chuckle to yourself at what they spell? (self.Blind)

I am not blind, and I'm not trying to be offensive. I'm just curious. I know during middle school everyone would chuckle when the number 69 is said (plus what it looks like). I was wondering if people who are blind have similar number experiences in braille. Such as the number 617.

Edit: According to the Internet Anagram Server, $1 seems to be the complete list of words that can be written using only the letters a through j. Most of 'em aren't that interesting.
I'd never considered it. Perhaps because there are only one or two amusing words that can be made with the letters A through J (I can only think of two). Plus, while 69 is amusing and isn't any kind of insult, your example is just a homophobic slur that has absolutely no place in civilized society.

That's true. You're right there aren't many words at all. That was the only offensive or dirty word I could think of to make with the letters available.

Yup. Not sure if you noticed, I editted my comment to link to $1 of words that pretty much covers every single English word that can be made with the available letters. There are only 225 in total.
