Re: Does is bother you that other people are much smarter than yoursel
I fall into OP's category but I'm not bothered by it at all. Since I graduated college most people I come into contact with are of "average" intelligence. A lot of them consider me to be the smartest person they've ever met in their life. That's probably true, but it's still a little weird since I know a lot of people are so beyond me. Guess it's all perspective.

Re: Does is bother you that other people are much smarter than yoursel
I think you have to be smart in the first place to be bothered in any way. Most people that are not smart would never give consideration to this question in their day-to-day lives. They either wouldn't care or wouldn't notice.

It's never bothered me, I think it's a good thing. I am very glad I'm not stupid though, so many things people say just make me cringe [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

lol. The 21st to 31st smartest and you get laid more too. Now that's smart imo. [/ QUOTE ] Well, if you ask me how much you get laid must enter ANY equation that measures degree of smartness. And I even think I'm being completely serious.

its just so frustating to see people automatically understand concept I struggle immensely with and can only understand after a great deal of effort is devoted to the subject. [/ QUOTE ] You do realize that someone being smarter than you in one small area does not mean they're all around smarter than you, right?

Re: Does is bother you that other people are much smarter than yoursel
I assume I'm above average intelligence since I completed a series of university degrees (4 undergrad + 3 grad + 1 professional degree) in a fraction of the time. At one point I was doing the equivalent of a 4 year honours degree in 9 months while still having a very active social life.
I have no issues with dumb people. I actually enjoy them. For a long time I would only date very attractive women who were so dumb they were almost a caricature. My issue is with the average. I can't stand average people because they think they are smart. With the dumb at least the conversation is light. Smart people you can have intelligent conversations with. Average people are just frustrating.
