I guess we're counting the thumb fingers now. 😜🤪😂
10 1 ReplyEven if we aren't OP is still wrong; we'd have 8 fingers, if we don't count thumbs, even if we index them from 0-7. The only way 9 works is when someone doesn't have the common number of digits.

I mean there are 10 fingers, but numbered 0-9.

We taught our daughter to count starting at zero. Her kindergarten teacher was not amused.

18 0 ReplyI didn't want to spoil their fun, but I'm glad you did. That kid's going to experience an embarassing moment of parental disillusionment the first time they try to be clever with a halfway competent math teacher.

Programming joke aside, that is a categorically incorrect way to teach someone how to count.
In respect to the English language asking someone at the bar to pour you zero beers should not yield any passing of drinks.
So for your kins sake, I hope you did not do that.

I mean, not everyone has 10 fingers, so the average is slightly less than 10. Coerce to an integer and you get 9.
23 0 ReplyBut some people have more than 5 fingers per hand (Polydactyly, afaik the most per hand was 8) so it balances out. /s
15 0 ReplyYeah but then Pterodactyls bring that number back down again
12 0 ReplyOn average, a person contains slightly more than one skeleton.
On average, a person has slightly less than two legs.

Have you had your son tested? He may be an AI.
14 0 ReplyDefinitely not an AI. An AI would say humans have 9 fingers on each hand, for a total of 47 fingers.
6 0 ReplyFirst things first: have you counted his fingers, before moving on to anything else?

The index was so out of bounds it fell from his hand
12 0 ReplyEight fingers and two thumbs for ten digits.
9 0 ReplyI just realised that digits translates to Finger in german. And finger also translates to Finger. But you have 10 of the former and 8 of the latter. Funny.
