Thanks for making my morning! What is a spoiled, foul mouthed little girl like you even doing here? So you are "following the science" and providing us with valuable links? What a laugh! You do provide some entertainment value to the rest of us, but probably not in the way that you think. More along the lines of the obnoxious farts my geriatric dog releases when she is relaxing while laying nearby, than dazzling us with your intellectual musings.

I went looking for the "links" that you have supposedly been providing in your recent posting history. Do you know how many I found? ZERO

Here is the theoretical construct that you ought to be looking into...

"The Dunning–Kruger effect is a hypothetical cognitive bias stating that people with low ability at a task overestimate their ability." "

As described by social psychologists David Dunning and Justin Kruger, the bias results from an internal illusion in people of low ability and from an external misperception in people of high ability; that is, "the miscalibration of the incompetent stems from an error about the self, whereas the miscalibration of the highly competent stems from an error about others". It is related to the cognitive bias of illusory superiority and comes from people's inability to recognize their lack of ability. Without the self-awareness of metacognition, people cannot objectively evaluate their level of competence."

Another LibbyLu-like meltdown, by one of the BCs.

I think they know their façade, with this ShamDemIc, is cracking.

Ooo, nice takedown Fireman.

My takeaway? Firemen are smarter than male nurses.
