Statistical reality check incoming: claiming you always receive more calls than average is mathematically impossible. For every person above average, someone else must be below. It's basic distribution theory. People who make this claim are essentially saying they've discovered a statistical anomaly that violates fundamental math principles. Next they'll tell you they've also discovered perpetual motion and cold fusion in their garage.

The weight stack at the gym has been transformed into statistical poetry! Years of gym-goers grabbing the pin have worn away the metal in a perfect bell curve pattern.

She hears an insult, but he's actually referring to the arithmetic mean—the sum of values divided by their count. His comeback confirms it: she is indeed the mean (average) one for interpreting his mathematical observation as an insult. Just another day of statisticians failing at small talk. Next time try "your standard deviation is remarkably low" and see how that goes.
