@maple WoF one of those cards that forces you to reckon with how bad the human brain is at understanding probability
@coriander @maple 1 in 4 sounds like sooo much. but "3 in 4 to fail" sounds like it'll never happen actually

@coriander @maple last night amy was doing the challenge where your deck is all glass cards and you start with two negative eternal Oops All Sixes

she got a Wheel of Fortune and went "Oh, this can't miss!!"

it hit her Ice Cream. it found a way to miss

@maple I have this on my gif folder to use whenever someone asks me some task I don't want to do
@maple Every freaking time.
@maple It reminds me of a 'random' monthly spin that the electricity company here provides to win credit on your power bill. The graphic is of a spinner with segments labeled different amounts of money, ranging from eight pence to hundreds of pounds. The graphic implies that all probabilities are equal, as in a mechanical spinner which might stop at any position. Yet I've been spinning it four times a month for a couple of years, and every time - every single time - it has landed on eight pence.
