We have all read the statistic which says Trent Edwards is more fragile than 73.4% of porcelain dolls. But how do they know how many porcelain dolls there are? And if they measured their fragility wouldn't they all be broken and then the point would be mute? Plus, porcelain dolls don't heal unless you count super glue which diminishes their value. Trent does heal. For instance, if he gets a little bump on his leg, he only misses three weeks. Let see a porcelain doll do that. Unless a statisitic says something like 100% of hippies are smelly communists, but not 100% of communists are smelly hippies, you can't trust it. The area between 0% and 100% is a gray area prone to people making up stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kelly the Dog Posted September 13, 2008 Share Posted September 13, 2008 Funny you mention that....Did you know that 82% of all statistics are made up on the spot? I just don't think that is true. It used to be 79% but now it is 84.5%. Here is the link. Check out post #6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillsFanNC Posted September 14, 2008 Share Posted September 14, 2008 The Statistician's Blues... They say 3 percent of the people use 5 to 6 percent of their brain 97 percent use 3 percent and the rest goes down the drain I'll never know which one I am but I'll bet you my last dime 99 percent think we're 3 percent 100 percent of the time 64 percent of all the world's statistics are made up right there on the spot 82.4 percent of people believe 'em whether they're accurate statistics or not I don't know what you believe but I do know there's no doubt I need another double shot of something 90 proof I got too much to think about Too much to think about Too much to figure out Stuck between hope and doubt It's too much to think about They say 92 percent of everything you learned in school was just bull sh-- you'll never need 84 percent of everything you got you bought to satisfy your greed Because 90 percent of the world's population links possessions to success Even though 80 percent of the wealthiest 1 percent of the population Drinks to an alarming excess More money, more stress It's too much to think about Too much to figure out Stuck between hope and doubt It's too much to think about Pick it now 84 percent of all statisticians truly hate their jobs They say the average bank robber lives within say about 20 miles of the bank that he robs There's this little bank not far from here I've been watching now for a while Lately all I can think about's how bad I wanna go out in style And it's too much to think about Too much to figure out Stuck between hope and doubt It's too much to think about That's right It's too much to think about Amen It's too much to think about Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
