The number of skeletons inside of a human body is statistically greater than 1.
Fuck, that's a good one
I like skull more, but both are great.
I don’t get this one…?

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!
We didn't make Agent Orange. That was Monsanto, and Dow.
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
And you’re forgetting that about 1% of the population is pregnant at any given time and has another whole human inside of them.
honestly curious about how those two would end up statistically balancing out.
There are not very many amputees compared to pregnant woman, and babies have a lot more bones that are in your typical limb
