The universe has been graced with thousands of so-called "evil" entities during its existance. Many people have differing opinions of just what is "evil", and depending on who you ask you could get quite a few answers: Satan, Hitler, Ganondorf, Osama Bin Laden, Sideshow Bob, the Joker, Courtney Love, Captain Crunch... however, all of these answers pale in comparison to one particularly malevolent force; the number 32.
32's inherent evil first came to my attention on the old BitForums. Back in the days of old, BitF had its fair share of spammers and trolls. Many of them are not at all worth wasting time bringing up, however two users in particular shared a disturbing similarity: Porkyminch32 (who posted porn into his sig and was allegedly banned from every site he ever joined) and Nintendoman32 (who stalked both Eltrotraw and Metaknight4ever). Both were notorious spammers who had quite a reign of terror on the boards, wreaking much havoc and generally making BitF a worse place by being present. Both had 32 in their usernames, and it was then that I began to grow suspicious. My suspicions grew to a boiling point when BitF made the switch from eBlah to vBulletin when former site host PZT, who was notorious for abusing his administrative powers (hijacking polls, editing user profiles, etc), registered on these boards and ended up as user number 32. On this April Fools Day, BitF was temporarily shut down by Nintendo of America in place of comic number 232, truly a sad day for BitF-ers until the legal protection of parody allowed the site to remain afloat. Comic number 132 was rather grim, showing King Dedede terrified of his imminent death and getting more and more tense, only to be horrified by a cruel prank pulled by Metaknight. Comic 32 showed off quite possibly the cruelest Dance Dance Revolution dance ever.
From that you can probably tell that 32 isn't exactly a great number for Brawl in the Family. 32 has left quite an impact upon the boards, but sadly most users seem to not have noticed. 32 hasn't solely ravaged our site, though; 32 has left quite a huge mark upon the world itself. For example:
Multiple instances of 32
Jesus' death is traditionally said to be during the year 32 AD. His age at the time is sometimes questioned, but 32 is one of the possibilities.
OJ Simpson's football jersey number was 32. He had a total of 332 carries in his career. Interestingly Wikipedia lists 31 different programs under his filmography, and he is currently serving 33 years in prison, and the average of those two figures is 32. The timeframe of the murders he committed was between 10:15 and 10:40 PM, making 10:32 PM a perfectly viable candidate.
Magic Johnson's basketball jersey number was 32: He contracted AIDS and pre-emptively retired. He returned two more times, and on his third basketball career retired for the third time, which was during his second return to the sport (third, second... three, then two... 32) after 32 games.
Germanium, element 32: if it is used in wiring, over time it develops "whiskers" which often lead to electrical shorts. Along with this, when used as a nutritional supplement, it causes potential human health hazards.
Singular instances of 32

Considering all of this (and this isn't all there is, there is more evidence unlisted as well!), I'm not surprised that the highest number of days in a month is 31. From my own personal experience, I can attest to 32's evil. Forget whatever you previously thought was evil, because 32 is far worse. Deny it all you want, you'll only be blinding yourself to the truth!
