    I’m having a particularly braindead morning. Mario and Luigi are two people. 1 in 3 leaves the possibility of a third person being ugly and both Mario and Luigi being not ugly. Why does Mario conclude Luigi is ugly based on the 1 in 3 comment?

      The meme usually ends with them looking at you, the reader, then concluding “it must be 1 in 4” because you’re clearly not ugly.
