    abbyjean: i am trying really hard to like this graph because, funny graph! cleverness! but, here is the problem. the Y axis goes from “very cool” to “uncool” which is presumably as not-cool as things can get, but then there are bars that go below the X-axis, like, less cool than uncool? what is that supposed to mean? why not just have the Y-axis be level of coolness and have all uncool values be below the X-axis? wouldn’t that make more sense, really? is this why i can’t have nice things? This graph does not properly label its axes. Otherwise it’d have ICE COLD.
