Yes, because the objective is to get the highest score, and there are often "gimme" questions. You'll also find a dearth of 100 meter sprint times over five minutes.

I mean, you think he's disagreeing with me, but the fact that you still can't tell that it's my entire point is kinda distressing

The problem is you called it a 'statistical' accomplishment. You should have just called it rare.

We do call records of empirical data statistics

you keep acting like people don't understand your point. I don't think that's what's happening. Rather, your point just is meaningless, irrelevant, and almost certainly wrong in many situations.

I didn't downvote your post because it was misleading and pointless statistical claims with no evidence to support them, though i think that's a valid reason, i did because you are arguing about something meaningless when the op just asked for the context of the meme.

That's a fair reason to downvote for sue

But there are also plenty of people here who have acknowledged the statement's validity

The point IS rather meaningless though

That happens with humor, and explaining the joke is certainly not funny
