To be clear

@LingTolls Subscribe to LessWrong apparently and work on your himbo qualifications

@DistractedAnna Merely being above average is generally not that hard. Most people aren’t trying.

@The_Equationist 🤔

@DistractedAnna My pet theory is that this is becoming false. More and more people are falling under the threshold and it's leading to a Pareto loss and deep unhappiness.

@cloudbring The trick is that you have to be willing to love someone who is also not above average I promise there are enough normals to go around

@DistractedAnna What if you are below average in many areas you gotta compensate by being really good in others, right?

@BeezyManzell Highly situation dependent

@DistractedAnna oh

@DistractedAnna You have to be below average to be loved

@DistractedAnna 😭

@DistractedAnna Sorry I only love people if they're in at least the 3rd quartile of loveableness

@DistractedAnna u don't have to be objectively above the average, you have to be subjectively superb extremely super cool top 200 worldwide

@aksfjh Technically correct is the best kind of correct

@DistractedAnna Feel much better now.
