The Grass Is Always Greener: Academic Edition
The classic academic grass-is-always-greener paradox perfectly visualized with a bell curve of IQ distribution! Those at both extremes of the intelligence spectrum (the 0.1% geniuses and, uh, the other end) think internships beat studying. Meanwhile, the stressed-out average folks in the middle (the 68% under the bell curve's peak) are convinced university is better while drowning in workplace responsibilities. It's the statistical manifestation of cognitive dissonance - wherever you are, you're convinced the other option is better. The normal distribution isn't just for probability theory anymore; it's tracking our collective inability to be satisfied with our current situation! Fun fact: this psychological phenomenon is related to the "hedonic treadmill" - we quickly adapt to our current circumstances and return to our baseline happiness level, no matter which side of the education-employment divide we're on.
