    1. For those not in the know, in WWHD you could take selfies with the camera which was not possible in the original, and Miiverse was flooded with selfies from the game upon HD’s release

      The Crusades of Jerusalem also coincided with the first play of Romeo and Juliett.

      That means Shakespeare was inspired by the Crusades

      Stats show a lot but hide the essential. Look up simpson’s paradox, it’s just a coincidence but there’s no actual proof it’s **the** cause

    4. Sounds like someone didn’t pay attention to the first lesson in high school stats

      Saving this post as an example of improper inference for my stats class. As someone said earlier and you refused to accept, correlation == causation.

      “By the end of 2012, Time magazine considered “selfie” in its top 10 buzzwords of that year.” Wiki search “Selfie”

      Might I remind you that correlation does not equal causation. Otherwise you could say increased ice cream sales result in an increase in crimes
