FullCircle -> Made up statistics. (4/14/2006 6:18:46 AM)


I just love to justify my arguments with made up statistics so here goes:

5% of sweets have been licked by a factory worker and placed back on the production line.
40% of wives have added phlegm to their husband’s tea following an argument
20% of drivers choose routes to avoid making right turns
10% of people have stuck their partners tooth brush up their own arse and replaced it
70% of board games are not won by anyone because it takes too long
100% of Monopoly board games are not won by anyone
98% of me think they should have been a lesbian
2% of people are happy with what they have

These polls were conducted recently by my ministry of polls and I am sure you will agree that they shed light on the matter at hand. The fact finding mission has it seems upturned some very interesting results.

Feel free to add your own I believe most things that are written.

That warm fuzzy feeling inside makes it all worth it. I guess I’m just one of those people that lives to please others.

"1 in 4 things the size of wales
taste like chicken in statistical tales
But if nine out of ten cats prefer it that way,
Why can't I fool all the people any single day"

My ex is too. Should we start a 12 Step Program? Or maybe just head out to a bar and drink 65% of the alcohol on the premises?
