Hmm, that might fall in the first 4.

Studies show that 2 out of 5 people are not the other 3.

70% of the mexican citizens have european ancestry which leaves 30% still of original genetic origin with no outside contamination.

80% of native indigenous ppl of the "Aztlan's" north and south were exterminated. 😖hifty:

100% of people are people

there is a 60% chance that blemishes/ moles will come back even after removal by doctors.

Reading that, I am torn between ''that's a damn impressive/unusual statistic knowledge display'' and ''that's an extremely useless piece of information''.

lil bitchiness is 85% moderator, 15% human.

i was researching it due to the fact i wanted to remove a small blemish. 🙁

it is a waste of money since the size of the blemish is this big: .

and probably come back.

an estimated 22 million Americans used illegal drugs at least once per month in 2009.

How so? 8% isn't even a sizeable minority of the population.

i used the TV. estimation of one person representing a few 100 thousand ppl..

😂 So each month 2 trillion Americans will try illegal drugs. That is a frightening statistic.

plus ppl lie in these types of questions

Yes they do, which is why I dislike surveys, especially ones that don't tell you the return rate (ie all of them).

and it is per month. 😎

So? It's not like a different 8% of the population tries drugs every month.

think of it one group pf ppl and it rotates to another group who has not yet tried it and so on and so on.. pass puff puff give.

I read this article on a Times Magazine about 1 out of every 10 black guy goes to jail. :l

In 1980, 9% of all income in the US went to the top 1% of the population. in 2010, 27% of all income in the US goes to the top 1% of the population.

Yeah it is 🤨

It's 2/3rd of the black population and half of the hispanic population. Almost double the Asian population.

If you believe the statistic of course.

And it's only those doing it regularly, there may be a larger percentage of people doing it sporadically or having tried it.
