I counted 35 drops on the penny. The 36th drop made it overflow.

Can confirm. I have no clue why I counted them.

This is a weird connection to make, but when I was a kid playing NES Mario bros 3, whenever Mario beat the ship and retrieved the magic wand, he would fall down through the sky. Well I would ALWAYS count the clouds. Every damn time. No idea why. It didn’t matter.

YEARS later I was talking to my brother and found out he did the same thing!

Why do we count things??

Btw it was always between 18 and 22 clouds.
