The one where people write out the number and then put the numeral in brackets like "I just ate three (3) pizzas in one (1) sitting"
Does it even have a name?

Please ask your question here.

Not gonna be a hardass about a question like this, and we can always move threads.

I know about the (you) meme, but I don't recall a numerical version.

Ok then requesting move to riff-raff

Might have something to do with /r/trees. They rank how high they are by numbers in brackets.

I know that that's a thing in some legal documents and such, particularly "one (1)". Don't know what it's called but that's probably where it comes from.
