urist , 2 months ago Have you noticed? 1 - one 2 - two 3 - three ... 9 - nine 10 - ten 11 - eleven 12 - twelve (A DOZEN) 13 - thirteen Why does the way we name numbers in english change after twelve? A dozen dozen? We have a word for that, a gross. An hour? 60 minutes, or 5 dozen minutes. We were always meant to count in base 12. It's a conspiracy; I know you see it too. The truth cannot be silenced forever. [insert more timecube/flat earth style ramblings here]
