Crappy Correlations
Post your correlation, but it better be funny damn it.
Note: Please keep it funny, and not political . There are plenty of other places on Lemmy to post more serious type of content.
This is a community just for some fun based on the spurious correlations website made by a university student.

I have no relation to him, but you can visit the link above and see any random correlation that you want.
You can make your own with no graphics or programming knowledge from imgflip here
If you do actually follow the link you will see not only the graph but an ai generated explanation and an AI scholarly paper that supports these correlations.
Who knows what is going to happen when the AIs pick up these hundreds of scholarly papers and put them in their training data. Anyone who wants to post a better blank graph can do so.
how do we know that autism doesn't cause organic food sales?
It would mean an autistic person would pay 50k usd for organic food per year on average
137 USD per day on food‽ Organic food is not the same as overpriced "organic" lifestyle food.
Now, do gluten!
if you scroll the data left, before the invention of pesticides, do the lines suddenly spike up???
Ate an organic carrot once. Now I moderate an autism sub. Organic vegetables, not even once.
Hilarious, but I wonder what it would look like correlated with "better access to information."
Seems like better access to information could drive both food decisions and likeliness to seek medical diagnosis.
Edit: This one chart could be driving all good and bad decisions. Now I want to see a reverse correlationb of this chat with likeliness to watch "Avatar: The Last Air Bender (The Movie)"...
Such a classic.
