- EliRivers 11y agoThe average of two even numbers is an even number In which universe is that true?
- lgas 11y agoOne where all odd numbers are even numbers.
- beat 11y agoIt isn't. That's the point. Fallacy in the middle of the argument.
- EliRivers 11y agoAt risk of outing myself as massively non hipster, I truly don't see the point. Stating obviously incorrect statements. What's the point of this game? If you're trying to suggest that the original poster made a mistake, grow up and just say so. Sometimes, there is a benefit to demonstrating a point obliquely, when doing so causes people to think about things in a new way and thus reach a burst of enlightenment. That's not the case here. This is just smug hipsterness.
