There are multiple wispy clouds in an otherwise clear blue sky; are they randomly distributed?

A pack of East Enders are prowling around on a Friday night, are their movements random?

The word "average" is misused a lot. Average person, consumer, tax payer; smarter than the average bear. A set of numbers has an average.

If we are living in a simulation does someone own the intellectual rights to the software? Or is it open source?

You mean that people still equate things with the concepts and numbers that can be sometimes useful to describe those things?

I was hoping that by now they'd have figured out a better way of thinking by now

The Romans had Dionysus, the god of wine, fertility and ritual madness. Ahead of their time in many ways where those Italian folk.

I mean the concept gets misapplied. One minute it's the average tax payer, which has a meaningful interpretation, and the next it's the average cab driver, which makes no sense at all.

I think the average Joe is more like the median taxpayer in that he pays an ordinary amount of taxes.

“Massive” being used in physics to mean “Having mass” vs the common use of the word to mean “Really Big” is a good example of this.
