Perhaps there are other factors at play?

@markarayner Some of us just suck at graphic design.

@markarayner Could use some blinking , and still have the golden ratio. Also maybe some more variety in fonts and kerning?

@bruce @alexeystar @markarayner

In my brain, I read (interpreted?) it as:

"I used the golden ratio but my design is still bad."

However, the joke was well received.

Dan Brown fans everywhere are reaching for the pitch forks.

@markarayner reminds me of this one, which is probably a better fit for the golden ratio

@markarayner lolololol

@markarayner it's perfect 🥹

@markarayner of course: the image was not resized properly! it's horizontally stretched.

@burnitdown @markarayner clearly the font sizes should have also followed a decreasing Fibonacci sequence…

@markarayner i know many people who "did this" and they we're very convinced that nothing can go wrong because they had that genius golden ratio intuition.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯
