      I’m not flipping you off, i just counted to 4

      19 is the rock and roll symbol

      22 is the shocker

      Assuming you use your thumb as the first bit

          My seven year old did something similar. At least once a day I’d hear ‘Dad, Dad, I’m counting to four!’ and see the little shit flipping me off and laughing hysterically :D

      One hand would be 2**5 = 32 (0 to 31) and two would be 2**10 = 1024 (0 to 1023).

      And if you use 3 states per finger (down, half raised and raised), you can have 3**10 = 59049 (0 to 59048).

        I don’t count to 1024 over often (literally never) so I don’t feel the need to go to trinary.
