Study also shows shocking and potentially sinister ties between political action committees and deaths from falling out of wheelchairs. Is this a governmental conspiracy for secret mass genocide of our nation's aging baby boomers? You decide.

I think the real story is the 700 people who died in 2009 by becoming tangled in their bedsheets.

I like how you used a placeholder text before posting the image.

Too bad this one has a pretty low correlation.

EDIT: The Youtube video on the site is pretty annoying. All those fast cuts.

Well margarine is pretty terrible stuff.

700? How is that even possible? They must be including suicidal hangings where bed sheets were used instead of rope.

I can't say horrible as I don't eat that crap, but yeah. Butter is God or God is butter or something in that direction.

Well yes, that is kind of what the "Spurious Correlations" part is referring to. It isn't like the website is serious.

This is fucking stupid.

Man, bedsheets are supposedly a deadly force to be reckoned with. These kill-stats are nothing to sneeze at.

 

[DrFurbs]

Things that correlate..

Sorry double post.

 

[CzarTim]

why do we keep sending troops into war when bedsheets would do the job?

Uh, what?

Patton Oswalt warned us to the bed sheet terror. We were all too busy laughing to do anything about it.

Well, I was just going to leave it as that, but then I figured that image might not get used enough where people would specifically know what it was referring to, so I figured I'd just stick the actual image in instead.

The site and studies in the OP are facetious.

Also while correlation does not imply causation, I feel too often people use this line as a substitute for critical thought.
