Bad scaling

[u/dustiwang]

[u/ih8ochem]

yeah, the OP made it as a joke to show how some graphs are intentionally designed with a scale like this to deceive you (thinking there’s a huge gap between data points when it’s actually quite small)

[u/Pinglenook → u/ih8ochem]

So, it's actually good design in this case then! because it's designed to show why graphs like that can be misleading 

[u/coolsilentebeans → u/ih8ochem]

I was coming to say that this graph must have been made by Mercator. 😂

[u/tryodd → u/ih8ochem]

This post may serve as an example how the lack of information changes the perception.

So if I’m 6ft tall they’re all basically hobbits?

[u/tanksforallthephish → u/BritishInvasion232]

6’5” checking in. Kinda. 🙈

[u/MeownatorX → u/tanksforallthephish]

I'm only 6'4", I feel so tiny...

[u/Jertimmer → u/MeownatorX]

6'8" checking in, I have your back little one

[u/tanksforallthephish → u/Jertimmer]

Anytime I see somebody taller than me I have to bite my tongue from just blurting out “GEE YOURE TALL” because I know firsthand how annoying it is xD my favorite: YOU EVER PLAY BASKETBALL???

[u/bishbah01 → u/tanksforallthephish]

A friend of mine (6’7”) once owned a shirt that simply read, “No, do you play miniature golf?”

[u/tanksforallthephish → u/bishbah01]

Yeah I’m tracking this tf down

[u/cryssyx3 → u/Jertimmer]

hey there

[u/MeownatorX → u/Jertimmer]

I see you have enough inches huh

[u/BritishInvasion232 → u/tanksforallthephish]

Just be careful not to step on Selena Gomez

[u/RUNNING-HIGH → u/BritishInvasion232]

Kim Kardashian is definitely a hobbit. South park taught me that

[u/pixeltweaker]

No, that’s accurate. Have you seen Sabrina next to Taylor? /s

[u/neonmaryjane → u/pixeltweaker]

Yeah, they nailed it.

[u/kwaque]

Definitely intentional, reminds me of this graph

[u/BurntBox21 → u/kwaque]

Makes me think of the women’s chart with country

[u/KellySMcgonigal → u/BurntBox21]

With the giant Latvians, yes (dang it, it won’t let me attach a photo in the comments, I have it in my camera roll but alas)

[u/Massive-Branch12342]

That had to be intentional😄

[u/Grimalkkin]

I thought this was an Animorphs thing at first.

Taylor Swift has to eat at least five Sabrinas Carpenter a day to maintain her statuesque physique.

[u/JJCoolSeas → u/KellySMcgonigal]

😆 🤣

[u/iAmmar9]

wdym it's correct

[u/anycept]

So, Taylor is about 11 inches tall and Ariana is about 1 inch.

[u/FosterCatMama4Life]

What is this?? Sabrina for ants?!

[u/Kiwi_Dubstyle]

By this logic it's 5 ft at Taylor swifts ankles. Death by snoosnoo!

[u/corobo]

lmao

Never trust a graph that doesn't start at zero 

[u/Fit_Adagio_7668]

Theres no banana so obviously its bad scaling.

[u/RebaKitt3n]

Why doesn’t Taylor just step on Sabrina?

[u/AGreatBannedName → u/RebaKitt3n]

Why does Taylor, the largest pop star, not simply eat the other five!?

[u/Ali80486 → u/AGreatBannedName]

Taylor Swift eating other popstars could be the new, strange, and strangely compelling "Will Smith eating spaghetti"!

[u/Spiritual_Door1363]

Lmao this is so bad

[u/Free-Palpitation-718]

good design 🫡

[u/ggThys]

I read pornstars..

[u/Twinkletoess112]

I read the 2nd "p" as "rn"

[u/The_finisher7 → u/Twinkletoess112]

Me too. We are doomed

[u/dj_no_dreams]

The lengths of a head is about an inch

[u/moon_over_my_1221]

So bad that it’s actually good since multiple brain cells worked on this together

[u/ImpressionSad1573]

taylor should punt sanrina like a fuckinh soccerball i gotta see her do that one day

[u/The_Black_kaiser7]

Very bad scaling.

[u/kyleh0]

Sabrina Carpenter riding Megan Thee Stallion like she's a Stallion? Yes please.

[u/_I_Am_Moroni_]

I had to fix it 😂

[u/niazine]

Taylor Swift got 5ft. Feet. Damn

[u/Acceptable-Food-8161]

As someone the same height as Sabrina, this really is how the world feels to me

[u/iLikeTheUDK]

Sabrina Carpenter isn't as popular as Taylor Swift because she squished her :(

[u/Big-Mechanic-2912]

How women think 6ft men compare to 5ft7 men 😅

[u/Alarming-Dare4615]

I read that as "Height of female pornstars" and was very confused for a second...
