Let’s keep in mind how crazy the average citizen is. Half are even crazier

That would be the median, not the average (but then it sounds less funny somehow...)
Since you opened the door to pedantry… median and mean are both ways of calculating an average.

Usually we mean “mean” when saying “average” because it’s the most common - but not always.

Only if crazy is normally-distributed.
