so, in my 10619 days of life on earth, i've now locked my keys in my car twice. that means, on any given day, i'm .0188% likely to lock my keys in the car (and 99.98% likely to not). those are pretty good odds. unless, of course, you consider the fact that the last time i locked my keys in the car was almost a year ago today. that means that within the last year, i've actually been .55% likely to lock my keys in the car, up drastically from 0% in the previous 28 years. at the rate i'm currently going, assuming i live to be 70 years old, i will lock my keys in the car 82 more times before my death (the movement of technology away from metal keys towards biometrics notwithstanding).
all this math shit leads to a more important question: is grad school making me lose my mind?
i'm almost certain that i'm stupider than i was five years ago, though i'm not sure exactly if grad school is to blame. all the hookers and blow might have something to do with it, i suppose.
Mwaaahhh! That is awesome. As a sociologist and number geek, I completely loved this post.
ReplyDeleteside note: I'm completely terrified of losing my keys because I only have one set. Rather than making a copy (which is the obvious thing to do) I have attached a big ass can of pepper spray to my key chain so I won't lose them.
