I mean, I have an odd number of leg pairs. You probably do too?

Four legs good, two legs bad.

This sentence took me multiple attempts to parse.

yeah but the range of leg pairs for humans is (comparatively) much more tame. this would be like if humans had 1-12.3 leg pairs. and crazier still, humans were named something like “6 legged beings”

i mean, our arms are just fucked up legs, so technically we have an even pair of legs.
