A Study on...Studies.

Think I can get a grant to do a study on how effective studies are?

Not that I'm a wiz at statistics, but I know enough about the theory and practice of such arcane arts to prove to a <0.05 margin of error that my study proves whatever my findings may be to be significant. I'm also adept enough at using a thesaurus to make the summary of my results newsworthy, if only for a day or so, as that is all one can really hope for in this digital age.

And I can just picture it turning out like a "Who's on first?" sketch:

What is this study about?


Studies.


So there's more than one? Don't you think you should tackle one at a time so you don't confuse the data?


Oh, there's only one study.


Okay, then what's it about?


Studies.


But you just said there's only one.


There is.


So tell me what it's about...
