The most aggravating aspect of the Dunning-Kruger effect occurs in people who know about the Dunning-Kruger effect: often they believe there can be _no_ case where the bulk of a distribution is above average. The easy example is: The average number of legs on a human is "1.98", the bulk of the population is indeed above average.
