It's wheels, it's always gonna be wheels, most things will have 3 to 4 wheels, trucks have 2 doors 4 to 8 wheels, then you have the trailer that usually has 8 wheels and 2 doors, then you have any industrial machinery that pulls something throughit, because rollers are wheels, also, now I know people will say that houses have lots of doors, but think about it, your vacume has wheels/no door, your fridge has 4 wheels 2 doors, no matter how you try to play this game, wheels always come out on top, they're infinitely more important to modern society than doors are.

Yeah, but the 5 billion apartment complexes have 100s of doors and no wheels to speak of. It’s not just cars.

[-] BucketBong@p.hobo.social 3 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

The contents of those apartments contain wheels, gears are wheels, so anything that requires gears has wheels, so a proper clock is filled with wheels, then you have rollers, any sliding door will have rollers, thus having wheels, immpretty sure some of those slow self closing door mechanisms have cogs in them, so more wheels. Your fridge has 2 wheels to make the motor work, so more wheels, nearly every single slide out drawer has wheels to help the draw slide out, so say 4 wheels each drawer and you have like 5 drawers, that's 20 wheels, your vacume cleaner has wheels, some beds have wheels, wheels will always out number doors.

Ok. If we do that. The whatcabout all the cabinets? Closets? In a bowling alley, all the little lockers? All doors.

[-] BucketBong@p.hobo.social 2 points 1 month ago

The mechanism that runs the pin pick up thing and the ball return contain rollers and cogs, cabinets and closet doors are alreadyincluded because they're doors.

There will always be more wheels.

[-] JeSuisUnHombre@lemmy.zip 4 points 1 month ago

Most cars have 6 doors and 4 wheels?

[-] BucketBong@p.hobo.social 3 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Cas have 5 doors max, if you class the steering wheel they have a minimum of 5 wheels, so at worst a car zeros itself out, a bonnet/hood is a lid, so that doesn't count as a door, factories throw the door to wheel average right out the window, there's way more wheels involved in a factory or warehouse than there are doors, no matter how you spin it, wheels always come out the winner.

[-] Zorque@lemmy.world 8 points 1 month ago

If the steering wheel counts then so does the hood, frankly. And also the fuel/battery door.

[-] JeSuisUnHombre@lemmy.zip 4 points 1 month ago

Ooh I forgot about the fuel door. And I think a lid detaches from the object, if a bonnet isn't a door then a bulkhead isn't a door and I can't abide that

[-] BucketBong@p.hobo.social 1 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

A bulkhead is a door. A hood is a lid because you can't move a person or object through it.

[-] NightFantom@slrpnk.net 4 points 1 month ago

Is a lego door a door? Because team wheels is counting lego wheels

[-] BucketBong@p.hobo.social 3 points 1 month ago

Yeah that's a door, a tiny door, but a door.

[-] NightFantom@slrpnk.net 2 points 1 month ago

Ahh now I see, I thought you were focusing on "person", not on "through", never mind!

[-] BucketBong@p.hobo.social 2 points 1 month ago

You can move a minifig though them, that's person shaped.

[-] NightFantom@slrpnk.net 2 points 1 month ago

Yeah but you can move it through the lid of the bonnet too, like moving into a dead end room is still walking through a door

[-] zaph@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 month ago

If you couldn't move objects through hoods mechanics would be out of work.

[-] BucketBong@p.hobo.social 1 points 1 month ago

Let's say for arguments sake that hoods are doors, there's still way more wheels on this planet, we literally would be nowhere without wheels.

[-] zaph@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 month ago

Do you have a need to be right or something? I never said there were more doors I just said your statement that objects can't pass through open car hoods doesn't work.

[-] BucketBong@p.hobo.social 0 points 1 month ago

We're all just having fun with a dumb argument about doors and wheels, chill out man, it's just game.

[-] BucketBong@p.hobo.social 1 points 1 month ago

The hood is a lid, different mechanism, I'll give you the fuel door tho, I forgot about that one.

You gotta remember there's a lot of wheels out there that are hidden from view, rollers and cogs are wheels, so clocks are full of wheels, rollers are wheels so convertor belts, sliding doors and kitchen draws have wheels.

It's wheels all the way.

[-] too_high_for_this@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

Cars have more than four wheels. Gears and pulleys are wheels.

[-] TropicalDingdong@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

It’s wheels, it’s always gonna be wheels, most things will have 3 to 4 wheels

How many wheels does yer mam have?

[-] BucketBong@p.hobo.social 3 points 1 month ago

About 3 to 4 depending on the day and how she's feeling.

[-] somethingsnappy@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

Roughly the same amount of doors.

[-] BucketBong@p.hobo.social 2 points 1 month ago

Surprisingly 6 doors, she always has to be the exception to the rule.

[-] abs_mess@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 1 month ago

She would've been a bike~~

I think you could classify a valve as a door, a gear is a wheel, so yeah I'd say a valve is a door.
