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.

Ok about to reveal how big a "dork" I am lol.  Yes I still read Archie comics so on that note statistics borrowed from an Archie comic book so yes it was actually in print
One gallon of sea water will yield 4 tablespoons of salt
75% of people are bored by statistics
42% of brunettes go totally bald by age 30
64% of all blonders get 72% of all blemishes
The intellectually superior male tends to lose his teeth 44% sooner than the average dumbell
And the most important statistic is 98% of people who quote statistics make them up as they go long

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

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?
