The eternal academic ritual: scatter plots with absolutely no correlation? No problem! Just slap a regression line on there and suddenly you've got a "trend." The comments nail it perfectly - random data points transform into publishable research the moment you force a blue line through the chaos. It's the scientific equivalent of putting lipstick on a pig, except the pig gets you tenure. The real crime against humanity isn't the forced correlation—it's that someone will cite this paper in their literature review without checking the R² value.
