    I've always seen this one written as "there are 10 types of people in this world..." yours doesn't really make any sense relative to the joke, because 25 is 0x19 hex, 031 octal, and 11001 binary.

    on the other hand, there are actually two types of people: those who can extrapolate from incomplete data.
    What can this strange device be?
    When I touch it, it gives forth a sound
    It's got wires that vibrate and give music
    What can this thing be that I found?

    Well, to be fair, did I give the impression that it was supposed to make sense? Nevermind. Change my statement to "there are 2 types of people in this world: those that understand Hodor's incredibly insane sense of humour, and those that don't." Rest assured that most people fall into the latter group of people and sometimes, on rare occassions, even Hodor falls into the second group (as paradoxical as that may sound)
