The brutal collision of statistics and human psychology in one graph! This meme perfectly captures how people respond when asked to pick a "random" number. Normal people (with average IQs around 100) tend to choose "37" - a number that feels random because it's prime and not commonly used. Meanwhile, those at either end of the IQ bell curve simply pick "1" - the most mathematically elegant choice that's simultaneously the most obvious and least random possible option. The real irony? Truly random selection would follow the bell curve distribution itself, not cluster around specific numbers. Your brain can't actually generate randomness - it's too busy trying to look smart or being accidentally brilliant!
