superior stats

Siiiiiiigh. 

Not loving the statistics class, you guys. But ... I think I found the key. 

Stop trying to comprehend it. 

Just memorize the various bits.

Do the calculations.

Say a few sentences about the results.

The key is - I gotta stop trying to understand WHYYYYYY the calculations are so smug and sure of themselves. They just are. They were around loooong before I got here and will still be here loooong after I learn to speak Russian (which is a far-off goal of mine). No point in trying to defeat them. Just respectfully nod and acknowledge their supremacy. 

That's my strategy.

Whaddaya think?
