This is the suspenseful coffee spewing content I look for. Four! Four! will it be....can it be???.....: !!! Five?!! Oh wow man, there's like a whole bunch of pups in that bucket.
And then.....then....glorious beams of light shot out of every surface and lo, another pup was granted unto us all.

so I watched this and started doing the count -- "two... three... four... four and and half... "
mrs. blank walks in, I restart the video, and right on cue, she says, "three, four, four and half...."

Not fitting has to be so confusing to them as they grow!

They'd be even more confused if you gave them a bucket that grew slightly faster than they did.

This is like the old joke about half-full/half-empty:
Pessimist: this glass is half-empty.
Optimist: this glass is half-full.
Engineer: this glass is too small.
Puppers: *wiggle*.

"Do not try and fill the bucket, That's impossible. Instead, only try to realize the truth... there is no bucket. Then you will see it is not the bucket that fills, it is only yourself."
Apologies for two posts in succession: I'm in the Bay Area and everyone is acting like it's the fucking apocalypse. I'm home, a little tipsy, and a little needing to counter some of the gloom n doom.

Just the right number will fit. The number that will fit, whatever it is, is sufficient to fill a basket with puppies, and I think all tight-thinking people can agree that a basket full of puppies is perfect.

Pessimist: this glass is half-empty.
Optimist: this glass is half-full.
Engineer: this glass is too small.
Puppers: *wiggle*
As an ex engineer, I feel bound to point out that the engineer's observation would be that the glass is too big, not too small, since any capacity not devoted to containing water is clearly a waste of valuable glass-making material. Also that jokes get much better when you explain them properly. This is because of evolutionary psychology, in which I assume I have more expertise than you do. That was a joke at my own expense alluding to so-called "engineer's disease", which I do not actually suffer from.
How many puppies fit in a bucket?
The linked material suggests that the correct answer is six. This seems suspiciously easy to measure. Is it a trick question? Or is it just something I would need to own a puppy to understand? Are puppies operated similarly to cats?
