This "9 out of the last 5" quote is the deadest of beaten horses on HN. It shows up at least once a week here, and it is written with such smugness and unoriginality that it makes even dad jokes funny by comparison.

Let's cut to the chase and make a bot that posts "9 out of the last 5 recessions, hyuk!" on every post remotely related to finance and be done with it. It is the furthest thing from a substantive comment; it is a recycled low-effort joke in the style of reddit.
