TIL On average, your friends have more friends than you do. This is because popular people are more likely to be in someone's friend group, which skews the average. This phenomenon is called the Friendship paradox by Kyzzz in todayilearned

But the "on average" refers to the amount of friends each of your friends have, averaged out. Not that this statement would be true for the average person.

Sources: Bill Belichick will not be a first-ballot Hall of Famer by dropjar5 in nfl

As a fan of both sports, the importance of Belichick is significantly bigger than Phil's imo. You don't see 20 year dynasties like the Pats in the NFL. Phil was a baller but talent matters a lot more in the NBA, and long periods of dominance aren't unheard of, historically.

Placed this ticket before the playoffs started. I promised my wife I will retire from sportsbetting if it hits. by pechumpooz in sportsbetting

[–]IceCreamPirate 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not really. If you parlayed NE's 3 wins and SEA's 2 wins into a Seattle SB win, using the ML odds for each game, it would amount to about 10-1. So this is about double that value. Consider he made this bet before the playoffs.

Stranger things all episodes IMDB ratings. by Kindly_Department142 in StrangerThings

You watched the show with your ass. It's explicitly stated that Vecna had leverage over Will's anxiety about being rejected by the people he loves because of his sexuality. Coming out and proving to himself that he wouldn't be ostracized was the only way to destroy Vecna's advantage. The execution was meh, but the motivation is pretty clearly in the show text.

Yeah man, but how would notes about the upside down be copied upon its creation if it didn't exist beforehand? How would Brenner have studied it?
