    Did you know? A histogram is a graph of hists/time, a measure of the rate at which history is happening. Currently averaging 10 hists/day. Used to be 1 hist/year in 4000 BC. This acceleration is called global histing. Also history ended in 1992 so these are rerun hists.

        Could we call this process of acceleration “histeresis”? And fear of it “histeria”?

        There are hist-free decades, and then there are weeks that contain all the hists

        "We won everything and it's forever" seems like such a conjob of a premise. I really wish I had cajones that big. I could have sold a bridge on the moon.

        When a washed-up musician wants to cash out and put all of their best songs on one graph, we call that a greatest hitstogram.
