I say the same thing. I was saying to my son the other day that it is hard living in a world filled with idiots. Yes a lot of people are nice people, good people and I like them, but get frustrated with the way they think. Its not easy being green :)
People with "book smarts" are not always wise when it comes to life. One of the saddest men I ever worked with had 12 years of college. He excelled there. But he couldn't make a good decision in the real world to save his life. He came from a long line of well known doctors. The type of men who have cancer centers named after them in the East. Very wealthy but with a huge ego. I'd rather hang out with the Proud Boys than him, to tell you the truth. He was a humongous pain in the ass.
I was always the highest IQ of the school where ever I went. That said, I find it is my humility that has been my defining character. Looking back, I have always been the most humble person I know...way more humble than most of you faggots!
Always remember this statistical fact: half the population is below average intelligence.
(Yeah yeah mean median mode, but it's easier to say it this way than talk about percentiles to the dumb public).
I have known this for a very long time. I’m not a genius, but I think I’m smarter than the average bear. And I am quite humble. I never typically speak of my accomplishments or anything that I have been able to achieve, which is more than any of my friends. I know I’m here for some reason, although I’m not 100% sure exactly what that is. I won’t read a most novels, but give me anything on wide variety of other subjects and I’ll rip them
True, but one has to wonder if the "average" is rising, staying the same or falling. (If the events and people's actions of this past year are any indication, it would seem the average must be rapidly falling.)

Why do you assume they are smarter? By definition they don't seem to be.
Don't confuse actual intelligence with mere signals of intelligence; the latter is incredible easy to emulate – incredibly easy.
I was homeschooled after Kindergarten. Even Christian schools hate geniuses.
omg true fact right there. same. we know how to keep our mouths shut. top 5th percentile here all the time too. agree with all of you, hahaha.
LOL wonder how many didn't catch the irony
"It's Hard To Be Humble" by Mac Davis in 1980:

He's the humblest guy in the room.
I should get back to work, bwahaahaha
I dont usually tell ppl my IQ. I can say it here because hey its just a message board.
I don't know what my IQ is. I'm always curious to know if it's slightly inaccurate. My best guess is 150-160.
"Think you're really righteous? Think you're pure at heart? 'Cause I know I'm a million times as humble as thou art!"
I'm the pious guy the little Amlettes wanna be like
The Amish are offended by this
KEK!
I deliberately misspelled words... I hated spelling bees. But, I am proud of you for winning!
Obama always said he was the smartest man in the room.

Intelligence is a symmetrical bell curve as far as I know so mean equals median anyway.

Idiocracy. Little did I know how quickly that movie would be a reality.
I judge people by whether they think it's a stupid movie or not.
