minus-squareReallyActuallyFrankenstein@lemmynsfw.comlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up13·21 days agoI’m having a particularly braindead morning. Mario and Luigi are two people. 1 in 3 leaves the possibility of a third person being ugly and both Mario and Luigi being not ugly. Why does Mario conclude Luigi is ugly based on the 1 in 3 comment?

minus-squaretoynbee@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up7·21 days agoThank you for the explanation! I am also wondering why the “L” on Luigi’s hat is backwards.
minus-squareBlemboTheThird@lemmy.calinkfedilinkarrow-up3·21 days agoDon’t worry, the m is backwards too
minus-squaretoynbee@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·21 days agoIndeed, but that’s harder to observe casually.

minus-squarethefartographer@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up4·21 days agoIt’s okay, I must be particularly silly this morning because I’m laughing at it way too hard
minus-squareNariom@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·21 days agoI mean if you really trying to make sense of it, it doesn’t anyway, that’s not how statistics works.
