I think you are doing it wrong. Or you have dainty jaw syndrome or something?

They’re overrated, and my irrational hatred revolves around the platform most of society holds them on. Same with lobster.

cause like, there're two, and a pair is two, so they get confused

cause usually if they say 3, or 4, they will say appropriately "pairs"
Hmmmm .... Wouldn't "4" imply 4 things (either the same or slightly different) and "2 pair" imply 2 matching things and 2 other matching things?

I could go in my closet and pull out 2 pairs of shoes or 4 shoes and end up with very different things.
It's as simple as this: "1 pair" is the only time you say "pair", singular; while when you have 2 or more pairs of something, you're supposed to say "pairs", not "2 pair" or "3 pair". For some reason this is a very commonly difficult concept to grasp for many people. I believe, as stated before, it is because when people think "pair", they think 2, and when they think they have 2 pairs of something it's as if it's already a singular pair, so they stupidly get confused. It's similar to how people get confused about "texted", past tense, thinking "text" is enough, because it already sounds like there's a past tense "ed" there to them.
I was right about Tree’s hatred on this.

B, on the other hand, uses 2/10 as part of his rating system.

Wease…not sure what to say about wease.
Oh, you know exactly what to say about Wease.

hey bammer, if there's a free throw shooting contest and everyone has 10 shots, and someone gets 2/10, should they just say they got 1/5 instead?
