The question we all have, did she do it on purpose?

Ikr I keep having to do the 30 days hath September thing to remember because March just feels like it would have only 30 days
PhantomPiGod t1_jefiomu wrote
An easy way is just counting the months on your knuckles A knuckle means its 31 days and a dip between knuckles means its 30
You just need to remember February being 28 days

... but that doesn't work?? July and August are in a row and both contain 31 days.

You haven’t done it have you? Those fall on the index fingers’ knuckles. The space between hand isn’t a “dip” it’s void and null.

It does work because thats when you switch hands. Knuckle (May), valley (June), Knuckle (july), Switch hands, Knuckle (August).

So now you are arbitrarily deciding which dips count and which don't? That makes literally no sense, and that way of counting is absurd. You can't say it's a pattern, then go and interrupt the pattern 4 repetitions in just to make your little "memory charm" make sense.
MrWhoG t1_jeg27cc wrote
why doesn't it make sense? you start with the pinky knuckle (january) till you reach the index knuckle (july), then there's no "dip" after that because that's the end of your hand, so you switch to your right hand and start there with the index knuckle. just try it out ;-)
edit: spelling

Guess I just don't agree on how to count fingers, since you absolutely DO have a webbing of skin that counts as a dip after your index finger. The only case that could be made for no dip would be for the months of September and October. You are creating random definitions of dips and knuckles to make your way work, therefore it doesn't actually make sense.

Are you trolling? Or just very, very stupid?
There's no way this wouldn't make sense unless one of the above is true.

Lol. Today is my birthday. Sometimes, I even forget it exists.
MrWhoG t1_jeg8msv wrote
i'm not sure you understood what we meant. we are not counting fingers but i'm too lazy to explain it. just google "knuckle mnemonic". pretty straight forward once you saw an image.

Poor baby. Happy Birthday!

I understand exactly what you're saying, and no I'm not stupid. Thumbs have knuckles, and there is a dip between the index and thumb. You can't just discount those because you want to.

You count with your fists closed and next to each other.

you form two fists and hold them side to side and BAAM thumb knuckles gone. nothing to remember. just hold your fists together and you're good to go. i like this method, very straight forward. but if you prefer to learn this poem thingy. sure, you do you buddy.

As someone who’s birthday is on that day I must agree because I wasn’t even meant to be born then I just came out early. March 31st is a hoax

Damn, boy. It’s a memory assistance tool not a science lecture. It is easy to look at your knuckles, remember the rules and then quickly figure out the day count. Calm the Aspergers for a minute.

But thumbs aren't fingers... I mean, have you ever seen one fing?
