I took a course recently where the instructor said that 75% of all drivers think they’re better than average. This follows up on that theme but takes it a step further. Apparently pretty much everyone thinks they’re better than average, and the worse you are, the worse your estimate of your abilities is (probably because the part of your brain responsible for self assessment is as damaged as the rest of it). The only people who underestimate their skills are at the very top.

So print the article out and laminate it, and when people come to you with stupid questions that they think are really important hand it to them. The lamination is so that they:

A-Don’t drool on it

B-Get hilariously frustrated when they try to tear it up

C-Don’t hurt themselves

D-All of the above
