Main article: Decimal representation
For a real number x, let us denote [x]n greatest decimal that is not greater than x, and has n digits after the decimal mark. If dn is the last digit of [x]n, it may be shown that [x]n may be obtained simply by writing dn on the right of [x]n–1. In other words, [x]n–1 and [x]n differ only by the last digit of [x]n, and one has
[x]n = [x]0.d1d2…dn.
One may increase n indefinitely, and this is a direct consequence of the definition of a limit that x is the limit of [x]n when n tends to the infinity. This is written as
x = [x]0.d1d2…dn…,
and is called the infinite decimal expansion of x
Conversely, for any integer [x]0 and any infinite sequence of digits (dn), the infinite expression [x]0.d1d2…dn… is the infinite decimal expansion of a unique real number x, except if all dn equal 9 for n large enough.
If all dn equal 9 for n large enough, the limit of the sequence of the [x]0.d1d2…dn is the decimal fraction obtained by replacing the last dn that is not a 9, by dn – 1, and replacing all subsequent 9 by 0 (see 0.999…).
In summary, every real number that is not a decimal fraction has a unique infinite decimal expansion. Decimal fractions have exactly two infinite decimal expansions, one containing only 0 after some place, which is obtained by the above definition of [x]n, and the other containing only 9 after some place, which is obtained by replacing "not greater" by "less" in the definition of [x]n.

A number is clearly defined though and "afjnjawrfjanf blue chicken flavor cheese smell" does not meet that definition.
On topic: An atheistic nihilist would be an Anilist.
Literally think of any number absurdly high, unnamed number and "afjnjawrfjanf blue chicken flavor cheese smell" can be it. We can define it relative to other numbers. Let's say it's a 1 with a googolplexplex and 2017 zeros after it. Voila, it's a thing. -

i'm fucking QFTing that before you go edit it or summing.
