this guy has to be trolling. I mean I suppose it's possible he could be that stupid...knowing what I know about some people I've seen in public spaces. But come on, how could anyone be that brain dead?

'think about the average person; half of them are dumber than that'

(or something like that, it's 2am and I'm exhausted)

No it's not, it's 4am and I'm exhausted

Hello exhausted, I’m dad.

Not quite. Think of the median intelligent person; half of them are dumber than that. There's no guarantee, that the average equates to roughly 'the middle of the population'.

With average also 33% might be dumber that that. Or 60% or...

I debated average v median but I was so tired I didn't want to bother with the brainpower :p thanks for doing the clarification for me

I'd prefer to believe this is a genius troll rather than a moron, but I'm willing to admit I'm an optimist.
