The chances of ANYTHING happening are 50/50
Right now there is a 50/50 chance that an asteroid will smash through my roof.
it will either happen. or it wont.
its like heads or tails.
there is also a 50/50 chance that a unicorn will appear in my kitchen in the next 5 minutes.
It will either happen. or it wont.
its like heads or tails.
my logic is undeniable.

Why are people reporting this? He's not violating any rules? He's not going against them by being stupid, is he? He's not a troll, just an idiot. Anyway, its not 50/50. There is not necessarily even odds that something will happen. The odds of something happening that isn't zero can still be infinitesimally small, but it will happen millions of times more than it won't. It's not even split, because, for example, we don't get meteoroid shower every day, only every millions of years. Therefore it can't be 50% because it doesn't happen 50% of the time, only 10^(-1,000,000)% of the time. Therefore the probability that it will happen must be very much far less than 50%. Flipping a coin is even only 49% and 51% because of the printing being heavier on one side than the other. Therefore not everything, in fact hardly anything is 50/50. Because the fact that it will happen is sometimes far less likely than it will, not the same. Therefore OP is an idiot. If he studied very basic statistics like I have, he would know this.
