AI explanation As Frozen yogurt consumption decreased, people's brains were no longer chilled to the point of committing heinous acts, leading to a decrease in violent crime rates. The lack of fro-yo-induced inner peace and tranquility meant that individuals were too busy mourning the absence of delicious, creamy goodness to engage in acts of aggression. This sparked a nationwide movement of peaceful protests, where instead of fighting, people hugged it out while licking imaginary cones of their favorite fro-yo flavors. It turns out, the real spooning happened as a form of therapy, and the only things getting whipped were toppings on a swirl of non-violence. In the end, the only thing that was iced out was an entire criminal element, as society collectively realized that the true spoonful of justice was the one they didn’t take from the fro-yo shop. https://www.tylervigen.com/spurious/research-papers/5905_chilling-crime-the-frozen-yogurt-factor-in-violent-crime-rates.pdf
