in arguments about the sciences. Its extremely annoying. I always want to be like "yeah well the exact opposite happened to a friend of a friend"

This has been a Krallum presentation.

But you never do. Instead, you sit down at your computer, and complain to us.
Thanks for that.

1) I was already sitting down
2) That would be rude, and I'm only rude on the interwbe

1. Complains about frequency of anecdotal evidence.
2. Provides no evidence of frequency of anecdotal evidence.

That's the whole point. This is not a debate. This is when you use anecdotes.

It's a natural human bias. Why so surprised?

Because qntmfred showed up and explained it to us one time.

3/6/2013 10:37:48 AM

Yeah? Well the last someone questioned it he didn't.

3/6/2013 10:39:04 AM

Anecdotal evidence is fine as long as you portray it as such and use it for what it is.

Okay if I say "70% of blah blah blah" don't say "Well my brother did blah blah blah"

The world would be very dry if all conversations were based solely on fact.

3/6/2013 10:50:24 AM

I don't even have a brother, why would I say that

3/6/2013 10:51:44 AM

All I'm saying is there is a difference between saying "I think sometimes people do xxx" than "One time my gf did xxx"

One time Skwinkle showed up and said the gayest shit ever.

I think skwinkle only shows up and says gay shit on very few occasions.

are you saying I rarely post but it's always gay shit

or I may post, but it's very rarely gay shit?
