At work we somehow landed on the topic of how many holes a human has, which then evolved into a heated discussion on the classic question of how many holes does a straw have.

I think it’s two, but some people are convinced that it’s one, which I just don’t understand. What are your thoughts?

    Yes, I agree. “Hole” is poorly defined. This isn’t a technical question about straws but a technical question about language.
