Whirled News Tonight News

I recently gave in and joined Facebook. Worse than that I've started participating in all sorts of time-wasting games on the site, including one where you compare your friends to each other. Who is smarter, this one or this one? Who would you rather have dinner with, this one or this one?

I recently got the following match-up:

Frankly, I couldn't decide. I think of them as both being pretty confident (although, like many improvisers, probably not as confident as you'd guess).

Going purely by the picture, Megan has given up the majority of her profile picture to Alex (in fact, until I read the captions, I thought it was asking me to compare Alex and Steve). Doesn't that suggest a lack of confidence? But Steve looks stricken and envious in his profile picture, as if looking over at Alex and Megan, thinking, "Why are they so much better than I am?"

Ultimately, I couldn't decide. I clicked "Skip" and moved on to a different pairing.

Maybe you can help, though. Weigh in on who you think is more confident in the Comments.
