Q: Why do you never hear the number 288 on television?
A: It's two gross.
A "gross" is a dozen dozen, or 144. Not a very mathematical joke.
You're being too intelligent for this part of the joke. It's supposed to be read literally
two ate eight
Get it? A person named "two" "ate" a person named eight.
That's a great idea buy the boat then it in international waters to host crack sites, pornography and spam. All of the things I hate the most, But as I figure, it wouldn't be a perfect plan to have a floating "fortress" in international waters, and being an annoyance on the internet. On international waters I'd figure if a country would get mad at you for hosting the garbage, they'd just bomb the ship and say it was an accident. Apparantly this thread is so stupid I had to break from coding to reply, I must be getting tired.
