So, in all seriousness, how many holes does a drinking straw have? I reckon it's a single hole but it has two ends. Mrs Ambrose disagrees, says it's two holes that meet up in the middle.
Who is right?
Depends on your viewpoint, if it was a bit of metal that thick it would be one hole. So diplomatic version you are both right.
It's zero holes, it's just a looped sheet, if the sheet had a hole in it your straw would leak.
It's 1
How many holes does a hula-hoop have? If the answer is one, then so does a straw. Geometrically they're the same, only the dimensions change.
It's a tube, so a hollow cylinder, so zero holes.
Its not a looped sheet its and extruded blob.
It has no holes its i tube.

Why does the material make any difference?
suck pipe
None
Hole at each end. Obviously... how else would you get the juice in one end... and out the other.
3
Two holes, the alimentary canal is essentially a tube and nobody would say your mouth and your anus were the same hole!
I dunno, sh*t seems to come out some folks mouths all the time...
Infinity holes of infinitely small depth joined together.
I’d say 2.
If it had 1, it would be blocked shirley..

You have one weird alimentary canal.
If it had 1, it would be blocked shirley..
No it would still be one but not all the way through.

Seems there's a mathematical answer.

Yep, google Fecal Vomiting if you’re intrigued and slightly mad.
My wife witnessed it once and said it was the. It’s grossest thing she had ever witnesses that didn’t result in the patients death.
Yeah you’d need more than a good gargle of listerine after that

Just once? She's extremely lucky.
Define hole first.
A straw has two orifices. No holes.
Its not a looped sheet its and extruded blob.
What if its made of paper?
Define hole first.
Something which faeces comes out of.
Interval time at the Banff Ocean Film Festival - and I get to read this! Cheers folks 🤮 💩

Think I'll give that one a miss. Like I did with the human centipede films.

Ours are made from abandoned sea shells and are biodegradable.
Not sure if they are vegan friendly though.
I would say zero: a hole is a penetration through another medium (fnarr fnarr). A straw is a tube.
I had something but can't remember what it was after the fecal vomiting.
Oh yeah, that was it, you have sphincters in your esophagus. Somehow that's less funny now.
A straw is a tube.
And every tube has a hole.
So the answer is one, unless you're trying to have sex with Mrs Ambrose. Then it's two or whatever else she says.

A straw is a passage for one medium through another.
Oh FFS!
Lol!
OK a hole, by definition is basically done to an object.
A steel tube, or even a straw for that matter would not normally have any holes in it.
Unless it's a musical instrument maybe?
Like a nose flute?
What's the difference between a straw and a daft Dutchman?
Topogically, a mug is the same as a donut, and a straw is one hole.
This debate drove people nuts last year according to the Sun. Which made me think:
It's none. Get a pin. Poke it in the surface of the straw to make a hole. The straw now has one hole. If you poked it straight through one side and out the other it has two holes.
If it had none it would be a rod.
A straw is a rod hull then.
Dead?
Dead?
I didn’t know he’d been ill!
It really depends how you define “hole”. There’s no right answer. I’d say it can be 1 or 2. 0 just seems like contrariness. Probably better to use term lumen in this case if you want to be more precise in your language and avoid ambiguity.
But a Polo is the mint with a hole..
What if it was as long as a straw?
