I’m still not getting it. Clearly not firing on all cylinders today!

Roman numeral 5 is a V. He held up two fingers to make a V.

Ok, but what if he wanted four beers?

Hold up the pinky, index, and middle finger. Depending on which hand he uses and whether he faces it palm in or palm out, that could be 4 or 6.

Not a roman but more a celtic/longbard one... But if i order two beers and I get five... I'm ok with that 😁
