#166 Correlation = Causation

#166 Correlation = Causation

Today’s comic is inspired by this humorous article, a cautionary tale of exactly how NOT to do experimental philosophy.

Also, here are links to articles discussing a few of the correlations I mentioned in the comic:
Being Fat makes you poor
Church makes you live longer
Breast implants make you kill yourself
Pirate Decline causes global warming

Enjoy, and see you Thursday!

    There’s an xkcd strip on correlation vs causation! And you made an XKCD related strip two weeks ago! And this is a webcomic! With people that fall close to the category of ‘stickmen’! You’re officially labeled an XKCD rip off. =P

    are we sure that the article was not meant as satire, because it kinda looked like it.
