The thing that really really bugs me about cartoons is when they draw them with only eight fingers but everyone's still using base ten, like where did those extra two numbers come from? Forget older people complaining about New Math, the numbers 9 and 10 would be a complete travesty. Why are we doiing this to our children?? It's just some abstract philosophical construct that doesn't mean anything in the real world. 7 x 3 is not 21, everyone knows it's 25. I don't know how they expect me to buy into the world building when they make such amateur mistakes.

... I think you might be talking cartoons a little too seriously.

Just get high and enjoy them with cereal like everyone else.

Whiskey doesn't go as well with cereal.

But it mostly depends on what kinda drunk you are.


Also, I've been told it's not a good look to get drunk alone watching cartoons but I'm the worst person to ask.

Only on special occasions.

They're probably expecting it someone will turn up eventually. It's usually Bucky.

I get it man. I lost the love of my life, bent time and space just to send him to his death quicker. I lost the same brother... multiple times... I've died and been rejected by God. I've been surrounded by ghosts my whole life. Just uh... be careful.

If this Bucky dude doesn't show up... let me know.

... how does that change the numbers three and seven?

(Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

the whole number system is based iff counting on fingers it's why it goes up to ten so if everyone has less fingers they should only count to eight which means nine is actually eleven. So if you multiple seven and three you have 21 counters in a row and mark off groups of eight which is actually ten and you get two groups and five left over so it's 25

I just don't understand the reason why the numeric value of the number based on how many hands you have.

(Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Because peope learned to count on their fingers. The's no magic meaning behind the number ten except it's how many fingers we have.
