RDN (Rectally Derived Statistics)

RDN was voiced by Bill Maher on Real Time (5/21/10). Synonymous with PDN (see PDN - Proctologically Derived Number; previously posted to Urban Dictionary); numbers, statistics, budgets, etc. derived from and consisting solely of voluminous fecal accumulation, frequently embellished with politics.

The Catholic Church's tally of child sexual abuse cases committed by its clergy is a constipated RDN (Rectally Derived Statistics).

Arbitrary Statistics

Those statistics people make up on the spot to try and give their statement some credibility.

Jeff—Yo, do you know how good my airsoft gun will be if I replace the trigger?
Eric— Probably 50% or 60% more height on the shots with a new trigger.
(Eric uses arbitrary statistics to make himself look smarter in front of Jeff.)

Bureau of Labor Statistics

(US GOVERNMENT) bureau within the federal government of the United States; part of the Department of Labor. Measures unemployment, hours worked, hourly wages, inflation, productivity, and so on.

The Department of Labor was created as a result of the NLRA (1935), which gave workers the right to organize.

Yesterday the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) published its monthly report of hours worked. This revealed that, while employees are working more hours, unemployment has not declined and wages continue to decline.

AP Statistics

A laughably easy class, most who take it are those too afraid to take calc so yeah, 90% of the class are math-impaired idiots. The purpose of stats is to be a joke class like apes. The tests are taken directly from the internet so enter in a few key words the night before and you already have the answer key. A very large majority of the class cheats on the tests which may be the reason for the incredibly high averages aside from its "difficulty". And plus, there's no homework. The only drawback is that the class does almost no preparation for the AP exam in May so unless you actually treat the class like a real one (which is totally unnecessary for the class itself) you're basically screwed.

Typical AP Statistics conversations:
Student A: OMG that test was so hard! How did you get a perfect score on it?
Student B: It's online...I typed in "chi-squared regression test" on google last night and I found the answer key..."
Student A: sh*t

Student C: I'm wondering if I should take stats instead of calc. How was the class? How did you do on it?
Student D: I got A's both semesters but I got a 2 on the exam...
