Pay attention.

Be astonished.

Tell about it."

The Dunning-Kruger Effect or Syndrome


     I just learned of this term.  It is so cool to have a name for it.

Sometimes referred to as Dunning Kruger syndrome, the Dunning Kruger effect was coined by psychologists David Dunning and Justin Kruger to explain why incompetent people cannot see their own incompetence.
     It occurs when incompetent people not only fail to realize their incompetence, but consider themselves to be more competent than everyone else.

     Interesting, yes?
