What is this?
Outtamyass.com is a fake citation generator. You type in a statistic. We produce a properly formatted academic citation for it — APA, MLA, Chicago, and a paste-ready HTML blockquote. The citation looks legitimate. The statistic does not have to be.
Most fake statistics generators are marketing tools that produce mock data for developers. We are not that. We are a fake statistics generator in the older, funnier sense of the term: a place to make up a number, attribute it to a plausible-sounding source, and walk away with a citation indistinguishable from the real thing. As the saying goes, 87% of statistics are made up on the spot. We just put ours in a citation block.
Used by professors to demonstrate what bad sourcing looks like. Used by writers who need a placeholder citation while drafting. Used by people in arguments who want to win using made-up statistics in correctly formatted APA. We do not judge.
Every citation produced here is real-looking. None of the underlying statistics are. The whole tool is the joke.
