Here's an awesome chart that correlates SAT score with taste in music. The results are pretty much what you would expect - except I'm supposed to like Ben Folds according to this. He is pretty wicked on a piano I guess.
How does this account for the socio-economic disadvantage the SAT exams clearly have?! How is it fair to hate all over the forms of expression accessible to the oppressed? Not cool.
Well, I'm not going to argue with you about the fairness of the SATs. But dude, The Used is one of the lowest on the chart. So how do you account for the apparent socio-economic disadvantage of the white middle class kids who make up damn near all of their fans? Maybe they just have dumb fans. Maybe this graph isn't scientific (which the creator admits). Maybe it's just funny.
