YOU HAVENT BEEN GOING TO THE MEETINGS?!!

"Backpacking Overnight – More Than 1/4 Mile From Vehicle/Home"
there are so many stupid fidgety criteria packed into that line
why do they need to specify three distinct categories each for different kinds of football, biking, weights, skiing, fucking kayaking
did they ever consider that their survey subjects eyes just glazed over looking at a giant sperg list and they just said "nope, no, nothing, don't care"
it's extremely cool how statistics nerds are completely detached from reality but dictate our perception of it

Iol at the implication that people too lazy to fill out a poll are significantly understating their athletic achievement

speaking of which, remember that Lancet study from 2006 that showed that more than one million Iraqis died because of the war? and some moron from the Iraqi Body Count website "challenged" it and was like, oh the survey wasnt carried out correctly and ethically and etc etc bullshit bullshit which goons latched on to, even from LF? Well this investigative report just came out: https://medium.com/@NafeezAhmed/how-the-pentagon-is-hiding-the-dead-862a7b45ce57
Basically the US military funds these statisticians (in charge of Iraqi Body Count, for one) to come up with sophisticated manipulation to systemically minimize civilian casualties from NATO warmaking from Iraq to Colombia, and its becoming more and more unchallenged and prevalent, completely skewing information on what's actually happening in these 'dirty wars'. Man, everything is just so much more peaceful now!

yeah it doesn't get much attention (for obvs reasons) but in addition to whipping up something convincing to contradict pesky numbers from a third party, if you work in a government job involving stats (in any field!) eventually part of your job is going to be retuning your metrics because the analysis you did inconveniently revealed the truth instead of arriving at a more desirable foreclusion. it is pretty cool to have your work sent back for revision due to excessive truth, and the best part is either you refuse and sacrifice your job or you comply and they get to hold your credibility hostage forever.

Good question. The answer is, because it wont leak out and instead you'll get an impacted bowel and someone will have to do life threatening and disgusting surgery on you to cut turds out of your body.
