Well before I saw this ... graph? Ad? Assault on reason? I *thought* I was pretty smart, but now my brain is running out of my ears.
I don't know what's worse... the pointless levels, the not-a-pie-chart format, that percents don't add to 100?
Why is it a circle?It's like someone explained the concept of "multiple intelligences" to someone incapable of understanding that concept.
Anyway, I'm told this kind of 'content' is "the future"
I bet the numbers are made up. From nowhere.

@futurebird This image forces me to evaluate my commitment to nonviolence.
Same. Let's start a gang.

@futurebird I will throw out the other 49 things I have to say, and simply ask:
Why is the only woman of the four "self-smart," and why is it someone whose life would justify a long and deep conversation about what—exactly—it means to be self-smart?
I get the feeling these four people were selected as "an uninformed person's idea of notability." By someone with no interest in anything except generating clicks. And everything else is arbitrary.

I don't see ads very often. So when I do I'm kind of astonished.
Sometimes seeing other people's view of the Internet makes my jaw drop. So many ads, so much pointless animation.

I know the notion of boiling a frog is a myth.
But.
This is boiled frogs. If people could only see how bad it's gotten they would recoil in horror.

@futurebird @jztusk @catmisgivings Growing up today I probably wouldn't be interested in computers.

for a long time I was one of those pedants who told people "real frogs jump out, unless their brains have been physically removed." and, you know, I hoped most real people would "jump out" as well. I knew, already, some did not. But ...
*sigh*
these days I usually don't bother to corrrect people.

@futurebird pictures think in me, terrible graph!
(that graph is a remarkable combination of the worst features of pie charts and spiral staircases.)

@futurebird what gets me is that, apart from Einstein, I'm pretty certain that there's just one person with a bunch of different wigs.
That's what "self smarts" will do i think.
