How do you rate yourself as a debater?

Incompetent people are so annoying, and also inject a healthy dose of humility into our own sense of self-regard.

What has become known as the Dunning-Kruger effect is an example of what psychologists call metacognition – thinking about thinking.

The more inept you are the smarter you think you are. Psychologists have shown humans are poor judges of their own abilities, from sense of humour to grammar. Those worst at it are the worst judges of all. ;)

Hmmm, you seem to think you know a lot about climate change. What could that mean? ;)

Actually quite the opposite. People claim that humans are the reason for climate change. I merely explain that there are other plausible solutions that need further scrutiny. ;)

I'm a master debater, had plenty of preadolescent practice.

It's not because I think I suck - maybe I do, but of course I don't think so myself. But I definitely don't think I am a God's gift either.
