  1. Kate says:

    Is that even a valid type of graph?

  2. mkaushik says:

    Should be a Venn diagram instead.

    • thepsychocat girl says:

      That format wouldn’t work, because ANYTHING you can do I can do better, and Venn Diagrams have parts outside of one circle, and part is not all.

  3. Reb says:

    Sure. It’s a Venn diagram where rather than both circles intersecting, one circle engulfs the other.

  4. Kevin T. says:

    Of course it’s valid. It’s pie.

  5. zarboki says:

    Wouldn’t this be better as “how well you can do things”, “how well I can do them”?

  6. Allera says:

    But that wouldn’t reflect the grammar of the song.

  7. Kristin says:

    This is a Venn diagram of “Anything you can do I can do better.” For all x, if you can do x, then I can do x better. The class of things I can do better contains everything in the class of things you can do.

  8. LOL says:

    To be able to do something “better” the other person has to be able to do it. So, it should be the same set, not a subset.

    • Kristin says:

      True…but it would be really hard to represent that visually in a way that people could understand (considering that people misunderstand this one), and I don’t think the result is as funny.

  9. Rachel of Cyberia says:

    The Ethel Merman-Miss Piggy version rocked!

  10. RichM says:

    It amazes me that people don’t get this, but it is an old song. Annie, get your gun! I liked it!
