How many holes does a straw have?

RE: How many holes does a straw have?
One hole. That is why it works. If there was more than one hole it would leak and be a less efficient sucking tool. If there were 0 holes it would not work at all. Straws suck.

It has one hole, and 2 ends.  Some holes have only one end.

How many holes does a donut have?  One.
A straw is longer, and the edges are thinner, but no one would say a donut has 0 holes.  And no one would say it has 2.

Aha.

But a hole is an interrupted surface.  A straw is a rhombus, which means from any point on a straw, you can travel along the surface to reach any other point.

So The human body doesn't have any holes, technically speaking?

I mean, I can see how people are saying 0, but that is only be redefining what other people mean when they say hole to be something where holes can't even exist.  I also sort of understand 2, but again, people are redefining hole to be opening in that case, which is at least understandable if technically incorrect.

I never thought I'd have such a deep discussion about holes.... Angel

You have to go deep, when it comes to holes.

I think everyone here would definitely qualify to play mafia because of the amount of wifoming we're doing over a hole.

Positioned correctly you get a gravity assist.

Sometimes the receptacle is pressurized . . . .
