XKCD

There are days when I enjoy XKCD and days when I really love it.

Today is one of the 'love it' days.

Schools ought to pin this one on the wall of math classes - http://xkcd.com/552/

If my throat wasn't so sore, I'd have laughed out loud.  (I used to hate statistics until I encountered a really good lecturer at university - I've enjoyed the subject ever since)

Yes, that one made me laugh out loud. My current co-worker didn't get it at all.

It's what I mentally categorise as a 'sorting the sheep from the goats' kind of joke. Those who don't get it do not understand how stats really work.

Yes, I printed this one and stuck it on my door immediately.
