The title doesn’t quite match up with the graph. It doesn’t say WHAT the cat may be sleeping on, just the level of importance of on what it sleeps.
Other than that, I like the graph!
I also have to wonder what this importance may be. For example, my cat sleeps on my scanner but I wouldn’t consider that to be “important.” Actually, come to think of it, “importance” is sort of a weird quality for an inanimate object to have. Value? Cost? Breakability perhaps?
For example, you have to use the can… kitty is asleep on the toilet seat. You are brushing your teeth… kitty is asleep in the sink. You are looking for your car keys because you are late for work — you better believe kitty is sleeping on them.
Who said anything about inanimate objects? My cat sleeps on my face, that’s pretty up there on the ‘level of importance’ chart if you ask me.
You need to switch your x and y axes. Importance is the independent variable.
I was going to comment on the same thing. Basic graph understanding fail.
graph doesn’t make sense
you can’t show propabilities like that
if you want a continous distribution of propabilities you have to use dp instead of p
(and the integral (the area below the graph) represents the total propability)
in your graph the highest level of importance already holds 100% of the cases, and yet the is a continous spectrum of levels of importance that also hav nonzero propabilities
it just doesn’t work this way
ok, third post (guess i just cant help myself)
the only other way to save this graph ist to say that every level of importence on the axis encloses all cases with lower level of importance as well
which would make the actual propabilities equaly distributed
i can’t believe im doing this
ok, there is another way to read this graph
by counting all the cases the cat sits on something,
and showing the propability the cat actually falls asleep
but i highly doubt this was the intention of the author
…but would also make no sense. How could “extremely important” enclose “no importance”?
comment doesn’t make sense
you can’t spell probabilities like that
if you want to write the word “probabilities” you have to use b instead of p
I am never making a GraphJam again. When crap like this makes the front page, and my graphs don’t… why bother?
wow. you guys take these waaaaay too seriously…THEY’RE JUST FOR FUN!
FUN IS SERIOUS BUSINESS.
FAIL, FAIL, FAIL!
How can you not know that this graph would be a lot funnier if you had used actual objects that your cat sleeps on rather that the level of importance to you. If you want us to read it, let us in on the joke. I mean what is this “Extremely Important” thing your cat is sleeping on. I can’t be entertained by the abstract.
FAIL.
Haha, wow. Graphjam commenters never fail to amaze me with their lameness. And, as a cat owner, this graph is 100% correct.
As a cat owner, you would know the true definition of lame.
I am 100% correct. Wanna take a poll?
You are 100% a douche. Poll THAT.
Nice. It still doesn’t change the fact that this graph sux. Not because cat owners suck (which they do), but because it lacks direction and humor.
Done.
Cat Owner FAIL.
Does it make someone who doesnt own a cat- yet spends a notable amount of time looking at cat-graphs to qualify you as not ’sucking’? Cat owners are actually smart. We are the lazy dog owners of the world- just as much cuddles, half the poop and walking time
Now we are done.
Non-Cat owner FAIL.
Tuche though- tis not a funny graph. Im just bored at work
My cat sleeps on my roommates homework all the time. But thats the only thing I can really think of.
what is the problem with you people? people make these graphs when they’re bored, and they’re just for fun…so NO more complaining about how “the X and Y axes must be reversed because it’s not scientifical enough” or how “it should give examples of the things the cat sleeps on!” I am truly disappointed with you people.
Besides, I thought it was funny. Either I’m the only insane one…OR I’M THE ONLY SANE ONE!
It’s much more likely that you’re the only insane one.
Ceiling Cat help us! Can’t we get some graphs that are correctly oriented?!
@nevermoreangel, apparently you’re the only insane one, because the majority of comments are complaints about the axis being incorrectly oriented. The purpose of a graph should be to simplify a confusing or complicated idea, not to make a simple idea more confusing. You should be able to look at a graph and not say, “huh?” or “wtf?” Like most jokes, it ain’t funny if you have to spend too much time figuring it out.
I think all your ‘x’ vs. ‘y’ complainers should go look at that lemon pie chart again. Cheer yourselves up.
This graph would be much more accurate (and a lot funnier) if instead of “What My Cat Sleeps On” it was called “I’m a loser with no life and also I am not funny,” and instead of a graph below the title there was no graph at all.
