Rating metrics:
Outliers can be removed when calculating a mean average to dampen the effects of ratings outside the normal distribution. This figure is provided as the trimmed mean. A high standard deviation can be legitimate, but can sometimes indicate 'gaming' is occurring. Consider a simplified example* of an item receiving ratings of 100, 50, & 0. The mean average rating would be 50. However, ratings of 55, 50 & 45 could also result in the same average. The second average might be more trusted because there is more consensus around a particular rating (a lower deviation).
(*In practice, some tracks can have several thousand ratings)

For some reason, the words "monkberry moon delight" have always given me a rumble in my tummy. It always sounded like a delicious pie or something. However, after doing some research and actually reading the lyrics, it turns out monkberry moon delight was supposed to be a type of milkshake:
"When my kids were young they used to call milk ‘monk’ for whatever reason that kids do – I think it’s magical the way that kids can develop better names for things than the real ones. In fact, as a joke, Linda and I still occasionally refer to an object by that child-language name. So, monk was always milk, and monkberry moon delight was a fantasy drink"
So, I have taken the liberty of creating a recipe for your very own "monkberry moon delight". Enjoy.
4 scoops strawberry ice cream
1/4th cup milk
2 strawberry moon pies
Just blend it up and serve.
Oh and the song is pretty great 10/10 (Edited)
