Don't forget that half the people you know are below average.

On what scale?
 | ranfuchs [Member] 21/06/08 @ 13:21 |
on a normal distribution scale
 | kevinwilson pro 21/06/08 @ 13:24 |
which half are you in?
| ranfuchs [Member] 21/06/08 @ 13:27 |
depending on the friend of course
 | CassandraofTroy [Member] 21/06/08 @ 13:59 |
Everyone is below average on at least some criteria
| ranfuchs [Member] 21/06/08 @ 14:04 |
no way.
| CassandraofTroy [Member] 21/06/08 @ 14:09 |
yes way.
It just depends how you define the criteria.
Which is why it matters.
| ranfuchs [Member] 21/06/08 @ 14:11 |
I define them in a way that ensure that I am above average
| CassandraofTroy [Member] 21/06/08 @ 14:12 |
Above average stupidity?
| CassandraofTroy [Member] 21/06/08 @ 14:25 |
But you are selecting criteria from an infinite array of attributes, some of which are inverses of each other.
So, everybody is also above average.
| ranfuchs [Member] 21/06/08 @ 14:27 |
as long as I make the selection, I can select whatever I want.
 | Melinda_blog [Member] 21/06/08 @ 14:35 |
True.
But so can I.
Or anybody else.
so, actually, all talk of 'averages' becomes meaningless.
| ranfuchs [Member] 21/06/08 @ 14:52 |
indeed. But as it is my blog, I can delete anything I don't like 
My blog is not a democracy you know
 | Prettyintelligentprincess [Member] 21/06/08 @ 16:18 |
Someone already got it...so...just saying hello...from someone...'average'...maybe
 | technomist [Member] 24/06/08 @ 22:43 |
That may or may not be true of people I know, but it is certainly not true of my friends.
| ranfuchs [Member] 24/06/08 @ 22:55 |
neither of mine, as a matter of fact
