My terrible secret

The Welsh word is meicrodon which sounds like a tiny mafia boss. Supposedly the Welsh slang for one is popty ping but I’ve never heard anyone say that

It sounds more complicated than it is.

There are two possible outcomes when you first pick - you pick the winner (1/3), or you pick the loser (2/3)

If you don’t switch, your chances remain 1/3 because nothing has changed.

If you do switch, the only way you can lose is if you originally picked the winner, since otherwise the host has just removed the only remaining losing pick. Your chances of picking a loser originally are 2/3, so your chance of winning if you switch is 2/3.

The confusion/peril comes from the worry about picking the right one and switching away, which would feel bad.

I realise no-one asked for it to actually be explained, but I do love probability, so, :man_shrugging:

There used to be a discount chain shop called What Everyone Wants, which I always thought was a bold claim.

Every time you went in they were playing the same song of that name by Status Quo.
The staff must have been tortured by it

We’ll never know, that’s the worst thing, we’ll never know.
I paid for a ticket just now and the bus driver was like WELL YOU’VE GOT TO LEAVE YOUR CARD THERE LONGER FOR IT TO WORK but then giggled and was like yeah this one’s slow, well which is it pal?
