Counting, manipulation, and rationalization

Jack: "I want chips."

Danny: "No chips."

Jack: "Just a couple."

Danny: "Okay, two."

Jack: "No, three chips."

Danny: "No, a couple is two. Three is a few."

Jack: "Okay, a few chips."

Danny: "You don't need a plate for three chips."

Jack: "Yes, I do."

Me: "Jack, why do you need a plate for three chips?"

Jack: "Because I don't know why I do."
