[[INTRODUCTION]]

In the ever-evolving landscape of internet culture, memes have become a prominent form of communication, often transcending their seemingly trivial nature to influence various aspects of society, from politics to entertainment. However, who could have foreseen the peculiar bond between the rise of the 'drake' meme and the automotive tribulations at Chrysler? It's almost as unexpected as the look on a dad's face when he's asked for a loan to buy a new car.

As the 'drake' meme gained notoriety in the digital sphere, it became clear that its impact extended beyond the realm of social media. Similarly, the mounting number of automotive recalls issued by Chrysler has garnered attention, raising eyebrows and prompting quizzical expressions akin to the ones dads make when trying to fix a squeaky car door. This engaging puzzle led our research team to delve into the confluence of these seemingly divergent phenomena.

Furthermore, our results echo the insights of "The Tipping Point" by Malcolm Gladwell, as the rise of the 'drake' meme appears to have reached a critical mass, triggering a parallel uptick in automotive recalls. The unexpected convergence of these phenomena, reminiscent of a dad joke that takes a surprising turn, underscores the intricate interplay between cultural memes and industry dynamics, challenging traditional notions of cause and effect in the automotive realm.

Additionally, our research provides a light-hearted nod to "The Magic School Bus" and "Scooby-Doo," underscoring the whimsical aspect of unexpected connections in seemingly disparate phenomena. This playful twist, akin to the punchline of a clever dad joke, infuses the serious world of statistical analysis with a sense of amusement and reminds us that even the most unlikely associations can spark unexpected joy and laughter.

As we continue to unpack the entangled web of internet culture and automotive challenges, our findings lend credence to the notion put forth by Levitt and Dubner in "Freakonomics," where they explore the unanticipated connections in ostensibly unrelated phenomena. The unexpected relationship we uncovered, much like a clever dad joke, serves as a delightful reminder that statistical analyses can offer surprising insights that not only challenge preconceived notions but also entertain and provoke a good-natured smile.

In a world where data analysis is often marked by seriousness and rigor, our research adds a touch of levity and unexpected amusement to the discourse around automotive recalls, much like a dad's wry quip during a long road trip. Our study underscores the delightful and unconventional nature of statistical investigation, highlighting that even the most serious of topics can carry an unexpected comedic flair, much like a good dad joke that leaves everyone pleasantly surprised.

[[CONCLUSION]]

In closing, our research has uncovered a compelling correlation between the rise of the 'drake' meme and the frequency of automotive recalls issued by Chrysler. The statistical evidence, much like a punctured tire, simply can't be ignored. As it turns out, the meme's popularity has been inversely proportional to Chrysler's automotive fortunes, creating a juxtaposition that's as surprising as finding a spare tire in a classic car's trunk.

While this correlation may seem as unexpected as a convertible cruising through a snowstorm, our findings underscore the importance of acknowledging the evolving influence of internet culture on seemingly unrelated industries. No one could have predicted that a meme and automotive recalls would form a duo as noteworthy as a dad and his trusty wrench.

Therefore, in the spirit of lightheartedness and statistical enlightenment, we contend that no further research is needed in this area. We've already driven home the point that memes and automotive woes are not as unrelated as they initially seem. And as any dad would tell you, once you've reached your destination, there's no need to keep spinning your wheels.

Correlation r = 0.9057610 (Pearson correlation coefficient)
Correlation is a measure of how much the variables move together. If it is 0.99, when one goes up the other goes up. If it is 0.02, the connection is very weak or non-existent. If it is -0.99, then when one goes up the other goes down. If it is 1.00, you probably messed up your correlation function.

r2 = 0.8204031 (Coefficient of determination)
This means 82% of the change in the one variable (i.e., Automotive recalls issued by Chrysler) is predictable based on the change in the other (i.e., Popularity of the 'drake' meme) over the 17 years from 2006 through 2022.

p < 0.01, which is statistically significant(Null hypothesis significance test)
The p-value is 5.6E-7. 0.0000005642181702573284000000
The p-value is a measure of how probable it is that we would randomly find a result this extreme. More specifically the p-value is a measure of how probable it is that we would randomly find a result this extreme if we had only tested one pair of variables one time.

But I am a p-villain. I absolutely did not test only one pair of variables one time. I correlated hundreds of millions of pairs of variables. I threw boatloads of data into an industrial-sized blender to find this correlation.

Who is going to stop me? p-value reporting doesn't require me to report how many calculations I had to go through in order to find a low p-value!
On average, you will find a correaltion as strong as 0.91 in 5.6E-5% of random cases. Said differently, if you correlated 1,772,364 random variables You don't actually need 1 million variables to find a correlation like this one. I don't have that many variables in my database. You can also correlate variables that are not independent. I do this a lot.

p-value calculations are useful for understanding the probability of a result happening by chance. They are most useful when used to highlight the risk of a fluke outcome. For example, if you calculate a p-value of 0.30, the risk that the result is a fluke is high. It is good to know that! But there are lots of ways to get a p-value of less than 0.01, as evidenced by this project.

In this particular case, the values are so extreme as to be meaningless. That's why no one reports p-values with specificity after they drop below 0.01.

Just to be clear: I'm being completely transparent about the calculations. There is no math trickery. This is just how statistics shakes out when you calculate hundreds of millions of random correlations.
with the same 16 degrees of freedom, Degrees of freedom is a measure of how many free components we are testing. In this case it is 16 because we have two variables measured over a period of 17 years. It's just the number of years minus ( the number of variables minus one ), which in this case simplifies to the number of years minus one.
you would randomly expect to find a correlation as strong as this one.

[ 0.75, 0.97 ] 95% correlation confidence interval (using the Fisher z-transformation)
The confidence interval is an estimate the range of the value of the correlation coefficient, using the correlation itself as an input. The values are meant to be the low and high end of the correlation coefficient with 95% confidence.

This one is a bit more complciated than the other calculations, but I include it because many people have been pushing for confidence intervals instead of p-value calculations (for example: NEJM. However, if you are dredging data, you can reliably find yourself in the 5%. That's my goal!


All values for the years included above: If I were being very sneaky, I could trim years from the beginning or end of the datasets to increase the correlation on some pairs of variables. I don't do that because there are already plenty of correlations in my database without monkeying with the years.

Still, sometimes one of the variables has more years of data available than the other. This page only shows the overlapping years. To see all the years, click on "See what else correlates with..." link above.

Why this works

  1. Data dredging: I have 25,153 variables in my database. I compare all these variables against each other to find ones that randomly match up. That's 632,673,409 correlation calculations! This is called “data dredging.” Instead of starting with a hypothesis and testing it, I instead abused the data to see what correlations shake out. It’s a dangerous way to go about analysis, because any sufficiently large dataset will yield strong correlations completely at random.
  2. Lack of causal connection: There is probably Because these pages are automatically generated, it's possible that the two variables you are viewing are in fact causually related. I take steps to prevent the obvious ones from showing on the site (I don't let data about the weather in one city correlate with the weather in a neighboring city, for example), but sometimes they still pop up. If they are related, cool! You found a loophole.
    no direct connection between these variables, despite what the AI says above. This is exacerbated by the fact that I used "Years" as the base variable. Lots of things happen in a year that are not related to each other! Most studies would use something like "one person" in stead of "one year" to be the "thing" studied.
  3. Observations not independent: For many variables, sequential years are not independent of each other. If a population of people is continuously doing something every day, there is no reason to think they would suddenly change how they are doing that thing on January 1. A simple Personally I don't find any p-value calculation to be 'simple,' but you know what I mean.
    p-value calculation does not take this into account, so mathematically it appears less probable than it really is.
