You're reaching here. You seem to have more faith in your ability to be humorous than you demonstrate. Your joke was not obvious.
Your rant about the abusability of statistics is not at all related to your (apparent) joke about the made up nature of statistics. It's completely irrelevant to my knowledge of how statistic works as it has nothing at all to do with what you or I said about how statistics work prior to this.
I apologize for taking it to be something it was not intended to be. But that I assumed it wasn't a joke wasn't entirely unreasonable given the way it was used: What you said is a pretty common escape used by some on these boards to deny the validity of sourced evidence.
