2:50 Ok so who was the smartass? In 8, 500 students asked to pick a number 1-10, somebody said 0 hahaha

[ShiroiYuki.]

I've actually noticed that more people pick 7 when asked to mane a number between 1 and 10 but never realised that 10 was so low

[madongseoksbiceps]

just ask the girl at school who acts weird and quirky and says "ha im so random ahahah"

As a kid my younger brother realized that I always chose 7 when asking him to choose a number between 1-10. I had been unaware of this until he pointed it out when we were preteens. Blew my mind

[corvo]

I thought of seven when he said pick a number from 1 to 10 lol

[fizhouz]

9:08 that's the best reference I have ever seen

Did you know that Spotify had to reprogram their shuffle algorithm, because users reported that it didn't feel random enough. They often reported hearing songs in familiar patterns, so Spotify made the shuffle option less random, to make it feel more random

RNGesus who lies in chances
Hallowed be thy name
Thy Luck be come
Thy will be done as it is on competitive as it is on gacha

Please give us this day, our daily drops
And forgive us for the random crits
As we forgive who spawnkilled us
And lead us not into whaling, but deliver us from empty wallet

Ramen

That prayer at the end had me in tears, I will now pray this before every game of Apex Legends.

Time machine mustache is the only logical explanation as to why Thoughty2 is so smart.

[bradyferguson]

The most puzzling part of this video was referring to the NSA as “the good guys”

[YummyRage]

Christmas miracle his mustache gave us more videos

I’ve been waiting most of my adult life for someone to make a video about the number 7 . I’ve never believed any facts or stories that people say if it’s got a 7 in it . Thank you and I’ve just picked up your audio book
