It was once thought that adoring cats caused one to get tortured. However, a recent medical study has come out, showing that most cat adorers have a certain gene, ACGT, and that whether someone has the gene or not, their chances of getting tortured go down if they adore cats. The strong correlation between adoring cats and getting tortured is because of a third factor, ACGT, that leads to both.
Having learned of this new study, would you choose to adore cats?
You guys deliberately chose examples so that acronyms are entirely made up of letters also used for nucleotides, didn't you?
