I was making a joke about statistics not being science, but it's clear that not everyone got the joke .. pretty much the same as the original meme.

(This is humour, laugh.)

Statistics is maths, and maths is science insofar that you can't do science without doing maths. And I'd further argue that statistics is perhaps one of the three most important branches of maths to science, the other two being linear algebra and calculus. Also, it's been established previously that maths jokes are definitely welcome here.
