AI explanation
As the 'harambe' meme faded into obscurity, internet users redirected their focus towards new trends, leading to a decreased demand for jet fuel in Kyrgyzstan. You see, the collective decrease in sharing 'harambe' memes meant that fewer people were using up internet bandwidth. This reduction in data usage had an unforeseen ripple effect on global internet traffic. With less data to transmit, the overall weight of the internet slightly decreased, requiring marginally less fuel for the servers to power through the digital landscape. And since Kyrgyzstan is a crucial hub for internet infrastructure (surprisingly), this lighter load for the internet in general meant that the jet fuel usage in Kyrgyzstan naturally decreased. So, in a roundabout way, the decline of the 'harambe' meme ultimately led to slightly lighter internet traffic, giving a whole new meaning to the phrase "fueling internet trends!"Create a meme inspired by the harambe meme that in some way references Jet fuel used in Kyrgyzstan. Try to emulate the style of the meme - don’t violate the copyright, just make it look and feel like the original meme.

[[LITERATURE REVIEW]]
The unexpected juxtaposition of 'Harambe' meme popularity and jet fuel consumption in Kyrgyzstan has prompted a deep dive into the existing literature on memes, internet culture, and energy economics. While scholars have long delved into the realms of internet phenomena and fuel consumption, the intersection of these two seemingly disparate fields has remained relatively unexplored until now.
In "Memes and Society," Smith et al. discuss the socio-cultural impact of internet memes, shedding light on the ways in which these digital artifacts permeate and influence various aspects of modern life. Meanwhile, Doe's work on "Energy Economics in Central Asia" provides a comprehensive analysis of the factors driving energy usage in the region, offering valuable insights into the complexities of fuel consumption.
Moving beyond the realm of academic discourse, we also draw inspiration from real-world accounts and fictional narratives that -- while not directly related to our topic -- offer intriguing parallels and amusing tangential connections. The non-fiction book "Fueling the Future: A Global Perspective on Energy Consumption" by Jones provides a comprehensive overview of global energy trends, while "The Jet Fuel Juggernaut: A History of Aviation Fuel" offers a detailed account of the evolution of fuel usage in the aviation industry.
In the realm of speculative fiction, novels such as "Meme Wars: The Chronicles of Internet Chaos" and "Jet Fuel and Japes: An Adventure in Absurdity" provide whimsical narratives that, while not rooted in empirical research, offer a playful exploration of the interplay between internet culture and energy dynamics. Furthermore, board games like "Memeopoly: Acquiring Virality" and "Jet Set Juxtaposition" offer playful simulations of the unpredictable and often comical interactions between memes and fuel consumption.
As we embark on this scholarly escapade, we embrace the absurdity and complexity of our subject matter, weaving together a tapestry of academic rigor and lighthearted curiosity. Our literature review provides a springboard for our exploration, inviting readers to join us in unpacking the surprising correlation between meme virality and fuel usage, and to revel in the delightful absurdity that underpins our investigation.

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 = 0.9989916 (Coefficient of determination)
This means 99.9% of the change in the one variable (i.e., Jet fuel used in Kyrgyzstan) is predictable based on the change in the other (i.e., Popularity of the 'harambe' meme) over the 6 years from 2016 through 2021.
p < 0.01, which is statistically significant(Null hypothesis significance test)
The p-value is 3.8E-7. 0.0000003814284633294060000000
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 1 in 3.8E-5% of random cases. Said differently, if you correlated 2,621,724 random variables You don't actually need 2 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 5 degrees of freedom, Degrees of freedom is a measure of how many free components we are testing. In this case it is 5 because we have two variables measured over a period of 6 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.
[ 1, 1 ] 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.
2016 | 2017 | 2018 | 2019 | 2020 | 2021 | |
Popularity of the 'harambe' meme (Relative popularity) | 41.875 | 5.33333 | 2.08333 | 2.33333 | 2.08333 | 1.58333 |
Jet fuel used in Kyrgyzstan (Million Barrels/Day) | 3 | 0.456247 | 0.130356 | 0.238986 | 0.173808 | 0.173808 |
Why this works
- Data dredging: I have 25,237 variables in my database. I compare all these variables against each other to find ones that randomly match up. That's 636,906,169 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.
- 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. - 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. - Very low n: There are not many data points included in this analysis. Even if the p-value is high, we should be suspicious of using so few datapoints in a correlation.
