*ugh* statistics rule and makes everybody drool.
  Yeah.
  Such a useful tool that people forget is a tool.

  I considered a theme a few weeks back that would be fun to
  explore. "POINTS WITH PERSONALITY". Instead of dimensionless yet
  somehow spherical nothings with woo-woo innards, let's give them
  better personalities.

  After all, statistically, I'm a number. But I got personality.
  Count me up at your leisure, but *my* number is gonna have
  character. Go ahead and cancel me out, statistical analysis
  tongue emoticon

  It always irks me when a tool becomes "the thing". And I don't
  have to get all Buddhist about it either. Numbers are useful
  things for us to use, but when that yahoo wrote "The Universe
  *is* Mathematics" and I find my friends falling for it hook line
  and sinker... I just wanna yank their shirts over their heads
  and go, "What's the statistical probability of that? Hm? Get
  real."
