Chaos & Folklore
Mercury retrograde, lunar phases, McRib, celebrity-movie droughts.
The deliberately absurd layer. Mercury retrograde days, full moons, days-since-last-McRib, days-since-last-Nicolas-Cage-movie, Bruce Willis movie days, Friday the 13th, groundhog day, royal events, celebrity arrest days. Published as a satire of meta-composites that DO claim to predict things. If a "p < 0.001" reading shows up here, the multiple-testing burden across hundreds of joke regressors almost certainly explains it.
