gollark: So if you have a scatterplot of appearance goodness/personality goodness, what would otherwise be an ellipse of uncorrelation has the bottom left removed and it looks negatively correlated.
gollark: Those things are quite possibly entirely uncorrelated, but you probably only notice/consider people where the sum of appearance and personality is above some threshold.
gollark: Fun fact: this is known as Berkson's paradox.
