Someone I know has just got a tattoo with some kind of Japanese proverb on it translated to "fall down seven times get up eight".
Now I know the general meaning, sort of if you get knocked down get up and try again. I told him AS A JOKE "how can you get up 8 times if you've only been knocked down 7". He answered "well you have to get up in the first place" followed with a remark indicating I'm a bit dim :0(
How can I prove to him I'm right (obviously lol) and he's wrong.
Come you smart peeps I am a bit dim and need your help
