How many holes does a straw have?

I put it in the philosophy section because all 3 answers can be right depending on your philosophical outlook.

0?
1?
2?

other? Dunno

I instinctively said 2, then realized I'm an idiot!

Does a perfectly good straw have any holes in it? Dunno

I would have to say yes, otherwise it would just be a solid tube, right?

Why? I'm interested in your reasoning.

I don't see how any answer other than one is correct.

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.
