Minus One

September 27, 2008 at 5:31 pm · Filed under FunFrolic

He1: Hey! Tell me, how many times you guys hav gotten physical?
He2: Hu! ok -1 times.
He1: Minus one?
He2: Yep! Figure it out.

He1 scratches his head, to find what -1 can be. The number of times that anything is done, can’t be any negative. Can it mean the number of times, a certain thing is un-done? What can be un-done in such a scenario? He1 could not comprehend.

Simply ignoring the sign, would make it 1. He2 could hav said it to be just once. Ho! come on, it can’t be just once. He1 knows the intimacy between He2 & his GF.

What could be minus one? He1 goes back to his PC & writes a program having the following line:

printf(”Minus one means: %u”, -1);

The terminal blurts:

Minus one means: 4294967295

Shocked to see such a big number. He1 decides to spoil the rest of his day.

Minus One actually means Countless in English.
