Satoshi was walking in Bitcoinland one day when he spotted 12 Bitcoiners fishing.
As he was watching,1 of the Bitcoiners said "Let's make sure were all here,it would be a terrible shame if 1 of us has drowned!There was 12 of us left to go fishing so i'll count to make sure were all still here."So he points at them and starts counting " 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11? Oh no,1 of us has drowned,OH, NO!".
Then another of the Bitcoiners starts counting"1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11! Oh no 1 of us has drowned right enough"
Soon all the Bitcoiners have counted the same way and ALL come to 11.
They were making a terrible noise wailing and whining.
All the while Satoshi is watching and shaking his head in disgust at the stupidity of the Bitcoiners.Every 1 of them had forgotten to count themselves.
So Satoshi walks down to them and asks "what's the problem Bitcoiners?Why are you making such a noise with your awful whining?"
Oh sir they say" 12 of us went fishing,but we all count 11 of us now,1 of us must be drowned. So were wailing and whining as loud as we can,could you help us please?"
So Satoshi say's "I'll help you.Walk past me 1 at a time."
As Each Bitcoiner walked by Satoshi he slapped each 1 in the face."1" slap,"2" slap,"3" slap......He slapped and numbered all 12 of them.
When he slapped the 12th Bitcoiner they all started cheering and thanking Satoshi furiously for saving 1 of them from drowning.
"will you come to our homes and let us thank you for saving us" said the Bitcoiners.
"No" said Satoshi.
"i'm leaving Bitcoinland and i won't be back till i find 12 people in the world that are stupider than you"
