    Three logicians walk into a bar. The bartender asks, “Do all of you want a beer?”

    “I don’t know”

    “I don’t know”

    “Yes”

        Just make sure you don’t confuse it with original TED talks. TED talks are the only real ones. If there’s anything added to it like x or ed or w/e, it’s not affiliated. Just FYI

      “Would you possibly want a beer out of three?”

      “Yes.”

      “There are now only two possible beers left. Would you like to change to another beer?”

      “YES!”

    Binary on fingers really comes into its own when you need to order 1023 beers over heavy background noise. Except when there’s a mix-up and you end up with -1 beer.

      ok sign with middle finger…

      my more practical finger binary system would have op show 6 beers. 3 beers would be thumb and forefinger. System is digits forward to enemy have missing fingers be 0, raised 1.

        In the image he isn’t using his thumb to count, so 2 would be the middle finger.

            I think it’s because in the UK they start counting (regularly) with the index finger, so the regular binary two would look unnatural in context

    There’s a beer in Australia called XXXX.

    The joke is it’s for those who can’t spell BEER, but it’s also for those who can’t count, because if they could, it’d be XL.
