Grrr... periodic table of visualisation techinques? PERIODIC?

Another point... to the makers of these periodic tables of visualizations, American presidents, sweetening agents, candy bars, vegetables, random stuff like that, fuck off. I mean, seriously? Have you noticed your data is not periodic? Have you noticed you're not funny, or interesting, or anything other than spactastic? Hello? What is with putting the latinade and somethingelseade series at the bottom too? and the curves at the top? the periodic table is the shape it is because it is HIGHLY STRUCTURED. Now as your "highly structured" is possibly alphabetic, maybe even chronological, or in colour order (arbitrary colour order, I mean, hello? has anyone else EVER SEEN a rainbow?) you have no excuse for the kinky shapes. In fact, lucky to be grouped by two variables. Now the Simpsons candy sponsored periodic table joke was hilarious. You are pathetic.

Sometimes I worry that people don't fully appreciate the true, immense beauty, the sheer numerical mastery, the information giving potential of the periodic table. It is a master of design. It is one of the great achievements of the human race. Usually, after worrying about that, I feel sorry for my self, I'm such a social outcast... for not good reason!

Oh, today in maths, I said "Will you shut up?! this is FUN math! The kind of maths I love! Quit ruining it!". They just laughed at me. On one hand though, algebraic proof is better than friends.
