One of the easiest ways to tell you're being conned is artificial precision. People are more likely to believe precise statements than vague ones, so when lying, be precise. Conversely, if someone's being precise to you, question it, particularly if it's a future prediction or a statistical statement. That was really the point of this joke. When you see artificial precision, suspect nonsense. Expand Like this one, oddly specific number there: "17 security agencies agree that Donald Trump is colluding the RUSSIA!!!!!!" - Hilldawg, Nov 2016 I believe one of them was the US Post Office or something.

Credit Suisse: Absolutely, how can we help Mr. Federer? RF: Well, the next time you give me a multi-million dollar sponsorship check, how about we forego the paper check and just do direct deposit? CS: Not a problem, sir! We will save nearly 1/1024th of a tree that way! RF: Saving the environment just feels good. Expand 1
