In this table, the "mean" means the empirically measured average funniness score when the "unfunny", "somewhat funny" and "funny" receive a funniness score of 1, 2, 3 respectively. "Precison" is the standard error of the mean, the standard deviation of the mean estimate. With that, a caption with an empirical mean μ and precision σ has true mean in the range [μ - 2σ, μ + 2σ] with 95% probability by the 68-95-99.7 rule assuming the responses are indepedent and identically distributed.

Also, I don’t think Seattle has anthropomorphic books and they bring me so much joy. 15 years ago, before you and I met, anthropomorphic books were all I had for friends. They saved me from a really lonely time in my life. And look, they all showed up to tell us how much they’d miss us if we moved. Maybe your wanderlust could just be satiated with a dog?
