Sucks to be me

A few days after being recommended for a mathematics honor porgram, I completely fvkced up a statistics exam because I misinterpreted the concept of the p-value as being the lowest significance level at which the null hypothesis can be accepted. What can I say? I suck. 😱
 
Could be worse, you could've lost your leg in an accident involving a midget, a tub of margarine, a pair of skis, 3 pine cones, and a bidet.

don't remember statistics but if the p<.05 that means 95% assurance it wasn't random (null hypothesis) or something like that.

something to do with looking up charts and stuff and degrees of freedoms.
 
Coulda been worse, you could be dead right now. Some people might laugh, but I tell myself this just about every day.

You're one of the few with a darn good reason to think that way.

I hate it when that happens. I'd hate it x 10 if I had any clue what it meant.
Can you repeat that in Greek? Maybe that'd help.
