This is basically a double. Similar things have been linked in one or two other posts as well.

Crashed my browser (Safari) thrice.

Can someone reup to an alternate link?

Why the google link?

I wonder if you took the time to assess your competence as it applies to a good Mefi post?

Personally, I find my biggest strength is in coming up with witty things that nobody has thought of yet.

This is the actual link, after the google redirect.

One wonder if Dunning and Kruger had some colleague they were trying to subtly send a message to.

Yep, that's the link in the post from 2002 as well.

Why the google link?

If you do a search in google now (it's been this way off and on for probably a year), and right-click the results to copy a url, it gives you this googletracky link, as shown in the fpp. It's a pain.

If I recognized by own incompetence I would never try anything, get lucky and succeed or , fail and then get it right the next time

I know we all pride ourselves on our intelligence and all . . . but wasn't there a way to do this post that doesn't require a psychology degree?

If I weren't so goddamn stupid, I'd say something nasty about this post.
