True, enough of this boobies love in we're having. Let's talk about eating hot dog sandwiches with our Chicago style deep dish pizza with pineapple and ham while we don't tip our waiter all while several quarts of our chili with beans and loose corn boils on top of our electric stove set to Celsius.

But is the pizza circumcised? This is important.

The Monty Hall problem is the best. It goes so hard against most people's intuition that they either refuse to, or simply cannot, process it. It's so well-known, now, that I suspect it's not so contentious, but it was great in its day.

I've been waiting for a steak derail, this is close enough.

I saw a movie written by Joss Whedon called "In Her Eyes." The plot of the movie is mostly irrelevant, what matters is that the main male and female protagonists are fated to be in love but at the movie's outset they are both with other people. So that the audience don't dislike the main characters we have to establish that the people they are in relationships with are terrible monsters and thus are deserving of being left.

In the case of the female character her husband start off as nice, he has an affable charm and seems to care for her. As the story progresses he becomes increasingly belittling, then controlling and abusive. Eventually his long and storied character arc is completed when he remorselessly abuses his power as a doctor to have the main character thrown into a mental asylum because he can.

In the case of the male character, his prior love interest is demonised in the course of a single scene. She likes her steak well done, with tomato ketchup.

The real question when it comes to the Monty Hall problem, though, is what if you just deliberately pick the goat? I mean, goats are pretty rad and you'd have a 100% chance of winning the goat, right?

Spanning 2004 to 2013, and an additional fifteen pages of archives for "Monty Hall Problem/Arguments." Yep. That's pretty great. It starts right out with an argument over the phrasing of the question. The question specifically says, "The host opens a door to reveal a goat," and someone manages to argue for pages about, "But what if the host doesn't open a door that reveals a goat?" Another dude keeps trying in vain to explain that it does not matter whether the host could open a door that doesn't show a goat, because that is not the scenario being discussed.

What ever happened to Romeo Rose?

Yeah. It's bad enough when you only have to read them once.

People tend to understand that one easier when you explain it to them that the free door opening makes it so that if they chose a goat initially, then switching wins. If they chose the car, switching loses.

And of course they had a 2/3 chance of picking a goat.

I don't even know what this is about and screw overthinking it, just pick a loving door, if you get a goat take the goat.

Another explanation that helps people understand the answer intuitively is extrapolating it to 100 doors with 99 goats and 1 car.

You pick a door, and then the host opens 98 doors all which revealing goats. Now, there are two unopened doors left; the one you chose and one random door that the host did not open.

What is the more likely scenario? That the one door you chose at the start had the car, or the random door that the host didn't open?

Wait what?

Last I heard he was selling off one of his hideous guitars or something. Or maybe he said he was but didn't?

Romeo Rose is one of those stories I can't explain to anyone because it's just:

"FAKE TEETH. UGLY GUITARS. 90'S VAMPIRE LARP. CREEPY."

In my head when I see his name pop up. At least he was mostly harmless right?

Yeah, he's another guy who thinks he's entitled to access women's bodies whenever he wants and doesn't understand why everyone else thinks that's bad and he's bad because that's his world view and he assumes everyone else is like him. Some are just whiny assholes destined to be lonely, some are monsters that should be locked up. How to distinguish who is the former and who is the latter is extremely difficult before they rape and/or murder others so I would be careful calling him harmless.
