Oddly, yes.

I just took a DNA test, turns out I’m more than you bargained for yet.

I love lines like these

Wow I don’t understand math at all

I think my brain just stopped working

100% is just another way of saying twice more likely. So 100% more basically means multiply the number you do have by 2.

Imagine how many woman are scared to have kids because of that statistic

This is why I took stats instead of calc. Because I don’t build engineer bridges in my everyday life but I sure do read studies that affect how I might live my life if I misinterpret them.

I’m terrible at numbers and math but I knew this and I really take it for granted. The average person definitely assumes, quite understandably, that “600% INCREASE!!!” must always mean a whole lot even if it literally only means that one of something is now six of something. Politicians probably take a shitload of advantage of this confusion.

just remember that increased BY and increased TO are very different things.

Oh god I didn’t even think about that whole other layer of confusion. Yeah if you’ve got 100 people and one of them is sick, that’s 1% of them who are sick, so if it “increased BY 100%” then that means now two people are sick. If it’s “increased TO 100%” then all 100 people are sick.

Basically me.

Baby Jesus, I need air

Why is this the type of humor I enjoy

who did this

are they angry or just playing??

They’re males of two different species and the males of many beetles harmlessly wrestle in order to impress females. They aren’t really bright enough to know sometimes that there are no females around or that their opponent isn’t even their own kind anyway. Sometimes now and the they will also just fight the female they were trying to impress in the first place like the fighting instinct forgets to switch itself off
