Self-Deprecating Slobs Rule

I read an article about a study that found incompetent people are very confident in their abilities and competent people doubt their abilities. In another article, I read that “messy desks are the vivid signatures of people with creative, limber minds.” I guess it’s good to be a self-deprecating slob. There’s hope for me yet. Now, if I could just find some studies about the benefits of being obsessive, depressed, and/or reclusive. There probably are some—maybe.

By the way, this post sucks. I wanted to write something else, but I couldn’t find my notes in the pile of junk on my desk.
