The best part of this is the subtle implication that you can tell a million completely different stories with the same data.

Having spent an unfortunate amount of time debunking bullshit statistics... yes.

You just need to pick the pieces you want and discard/ignore the ones you don't!

And invent the special pieces you need to tell the story you want.

Where the fuck was that baseplate hiding?

The baseplate came from the green in the bar graph. As we know all, the base plate is the foundation for any major project. Regardless that the bar graph shows little green compared to everything else. Green is far more important and we should focus all our efforts on the color green.

In a major coincidence, green is the color of money and I am now moving into a bigger house.

Edit: The fact that I got upvotes for a poorly written post amazes me.
