The Agreement Ratio

I love it when someone disagrees with one of my posts on Facebook or on one of my blogs. But how much do I love it?

I also love it when my friends agree with me. I really don’t want you to agree with me all of the time and I find it particularly annoying if you disagree with me all of the time.

So let’s define a new dynamic called the “Agreement Ratio” as the percentage of times you agree with me. It is 10% if you agree with me 10% of the time and 90% if you agree with me 90% of the time.

Here is my hypothesis. I find it most interesting if this ratio is 50%. You disagree with me half the time and tell me what I am missing. The other 50% of the time you confirm the brilliance of my conclusions.

OK - do you agree with me on this one?
