Skeletons, not bones
Preggerant
actually, you're forgetting about amputees and people born with fewer limbs. it's likely less than 1.
Skeleton, not bones. Amputees still have.a skeleton, don't they?
I lost my skele back in 'nam
Dang commies!
the question is: is a skeleton that's missing pieces still "one skeleton"? And if so, at which point does it become not a skeleton? Because i'm reasonably sure you wouldn't call a severed foot a skeleton even though it is still arguably "one skeleton" that is just missing a lot of pieces.
i think a skeleton is just multiple bones together that are attached. A pile of bones isn’t a skeleton, it’s a pile of bones
so by your definition a severed foot is, indeed, a skeleton. huh.
If an anthropologist found a 2-million year old intact foot, I think they’d call it a skeleton, sure.
i somehow have a feeling that they'd call that a partial skeleton (aka. less than one)
ehh, partial skeleton, skeleton, what’s the difference? a few missing bones never hurt anybody! /s
Unless there's a lot of dudes with 3 it really is less than 1 on average.

Shut up before we start talking about p values...
p is stored in the balls...
Did you just assume my p-values!?
No, but I know what you LSmean
Damn girl, your bell curves are statistically significant
Let's all calm down, and have some Chi at the square.
68% of statistical facts are incorrect, including this one
So in other words I'm above average
I'm partially responsible for this stat
Aren't we all?
Ya, but I'm also why the number is less than two
In a few months I'll be doing my part to lower the average
best of luck with your lopemoffomy
Somehow never heard that term before but I'm here for it
By being female or through loss?
Cuz I mean roughly half the population of the US has zero by default and they are included in this statistic. So for them you may also be part of why the number is greater than zero.
Unfortunate encounter with a Laplander.
For every snake on Earth, there is one snake dick. Half of all snakes are female.
