The Beginning
So, I spend a lot of time reading things, or watching the news thinking how ridiculous the statistics used are. The only use of statistics appears to be to make the public think whatever the media like, statistics are handy because they can be interpreted however you like. Yeah, the media seems to enjoy this to the extent that it is almost comic.
Most irritating, for some reason, are hair adverts. Do they think that women can not work out how stupid these things are, or perhaps they can’t.
So, anyhoo, that’s what you are going to find here. Inane ramblings about the stupidity of statistics, or perhaps just the general public who are fooled by them.
