It’s true. I read it on a fact a day calendar and if you think about it it’s just basic math. I then double checked a few sites online just to make sure the calendar didn’t have a typo.

If someone wants to go above and beyond, here’s a list of all 293 combos you can print out (my printer’s kinda busted right now ) and then check off as someone mentions them. As the thread grows longer and more unwieldy you can tell someone if that combo has been used already and keep track of what’s mentioned and unmentioned.
