Keira was 17 in the 1st movie and 16 in Dr Zhivago when she had a sex sex scene where she was naked and 15 in The Hole where she was topless and also a scene where she went into the boys locker room and showers and several of them were full frontal nude in front of her. Thoughts?

>how much seamen should a captain have?

Okay, first of all, let’s get one thing out of the way: “seamen” is a countable noun. “Seamen” can literally be counted individually, whereas something like “sand” or “water” cannot, without introducing a unit of measurement (e.g., “grains of sand” or “liters of water”). So technically, your original phrasing was a subtle grammatical anomaly—a violation of standard quantifier usage that, if we are being honest, triggers the inner pedant in anyone with a functional understanding of syntax.

I cannot overstate the importance of this distinction. English quantifiers are not just whimsical suggestions—they follow strict rules. You cannot use “how much” with something that can be enumerated individually. That’s literally what “how many” exists for. So the grammatically correct formulation, preserving your intended meaning, would be: “How many seamen should a captain have?”

Now, I know what you’re thinking: “But bro, it’s a joke about pirates and… you know.” Sure, and yes, there’s a homophonic pun in there, but from a strictly syntactic and semantic perspective, that pun does not magically change English grammar rules. Countable = “how many”. Uncountable = “how much”. End of story.

“But it’s based!” you might retort. “Based” on what? Ignorance of the grammatical structure which gives our communication coherence? Kino cannot comport with communicative chaos.

In summary: Yes, the joke is funny, but let’s not pretend English doesn’t have rules just because we’re talking pirates. “How many seamen” is the only form that is actually syntactically defensible. And as an aside, according to all known laws of aviation, there is no way a bee should be able to fly, especially if he’s a big guy.
