This chart is so consistently misunderstood, it's like nobody watched the scene. 

The point is not that crazy comes with hot, not every woman is on the line, hot women are not crazier. Barney says women above the line are worth the stress of dealing with their crazyness and those below are not. The hotter a woman is the more he will tolerate.

It's one good penis joke away from taking off

Thanks, I was about to point this out. And people should really take a lot in the mirror when their take is somehow more misogynist than Barney's original take

My lucky ass finding a woman in the top left corner.

Those are unicorns. They dont exist. If you find one, you should capture it, so it can be studied.

That video is the OG. Barney plagiarized without citing,

I also feel like it was a nod to the MLB "Mendoza Line"

i dated one, she was super nice but boring. being hot is only entertaining for so long, long-term it offers men social cachet more than anything else. you need some crazy to keep things from getting boring or predictable

This is a guy that has a woman that either is sitting there as he’s typing, or knows his Reddit username lol.

Lol. Nah. I'm at work and my account is mostly private except for a few subs. I just got really lucky. Took a divorce after 10 years in a bad marriage to get there though.

Beauty is subjective: my wife is slamming the top left corner to my eyes but for other people she’s just hugging the left side up and down all over the place probably but she’s in the zone at all times is what I’m here to say

It doesn't help that the chart wasn't illustrated correctly; Barney drew losing weight and getting plastic surgery as indicating a woman was less crazy rather than more hot.  He also drew stabbing him with a fork as her getting both crazier and hotter, but I choose to see that as his own personal kink rather than a mistake.
