This is probably tied into the TOM thread but its another of those things that have been bothering me lately. Why why why are so many people so bad at it. For me it's a game and a fun one at that but so many people just don't even try they just sit there stupidly waiting for things to rectify themselves or pay people like me to figure it out. Can't others see what I see, cant they put their common sense to work. So much of what I have to explain to people is so clearly evident. It disappoints me people have such limited grasp of the world around them. This isn't just stupid people I have worked or talked to all types.
I think that different people have different problem-solving skill sets, so no, not all people see what you see. It might be perfectly clear to you and unclear to many other people. There could be other things that are completely clear to them but that you or I could not understand.
When I wonder out loud why other people don't understand things that seem obvious to me, my husband often reminds me that half the people are on the left side of the bell curve, but I think it's a lot more complicated than just IQ.
