That's FAKE NEWS if I ever saw it.

Sure, that's why Homer Simpson is the smartest person on FOX.

The South I get, and Alaska makes sense because they're basically rednecks who have to stay indoors all the time with nothing to do but cuddle for warmth. But why is Delaware so high? Statistical anomaly from a low population?

This came from the WSJ but the story explaining it is behind a paywall. I don't want to sit that close.

Yeah, we talked about this years ago. Most people have such poor eyesight that the higher resolution TVs don't give them a noticeably better picture at normal viewing distances unless it is a huge screen. The resolution of the rods and cones in your eyes, which are like pixels in a way, is poorer than the resolution on the tv.

One time my son and I pulled the couch right up to the tv, like 2-3 feet away, to watch a particulary cool NASA thing on PBS, and that was the first time I noticed the pixels watching something on my 720p TV (32").

The first and last time I did that was for Alice Cooper, about '73 I think.

This is from data 7 years old but it seemed to be a trend. If asked if the have had sexual intercourse, like the CDC and most polls do, the stats say teen sex is down. But digging deeper shows that "hooking up" is now popular, which can be anything from a goodnight kiss to anal and/or oral casual sex.

It's important to read the numbers and not just go by the pictures.
