Various reasons, mostly being accepted instantly by society I thnk

define stupid
then define intelligence

>>4582749
to define intelligence, one must first invent the apple pie

The Jews.

Because you're susceptible to the Dunning-Kruger effect

>tfw you simultaneously think most people are idiots and realize you are no better than any of them

It's a weird spot to be in.

I think I'm smart but I hate people who think they're smarter than everyone else.
I think I'm more self-aware than most people, but most people probably think they are more self-aware than I am.
I have a posh, upper class accent and vernacular, but I hate people who actively try to make themselves seem smarter by acting posh.
I crave praise and recognition for my intelligence that I think is higher than those of others but I despise people who describe themselves as "deep thinkers" or "intellectuals"themselves.

I'm in a very weird spot. I still somehow manage to not hate myself.

Why not do the opposite

>>4582895
I mean the inverse, not the opposite

pls don't call me out on my idiocy

>>4582895
Define the opposite of stupid
Then define the opposite of intelligence

>tfw I thought I was destined to be 10/10 at life, and my hidden talents were just squandered without a means to express themselves because of the plebians around me
>Realize I'm a fucking plebian myself, and much more so than the average person.

>>4582725
No way to explain it without equipping my fedora and sounding like a pretentious fuck.

They're not. They simply have different interest and ways to approach them than you.

Damn I hate being sober, I’m a smoker
Fredo a drinker, Tadoe off molly water
We can’t spell sober
Ballout roll up, when we roll up bitches be on us
All the hoes they love smoking, and love drinking
Anti-sober, for no reason
Cause we can’t spell sober
Ya know us, we smoke strong bruh
Watch me roll up
Cause I can’t spell sober

If you were actually better than anyone else you'd have a pile of awards and grants but you don't.

zomg anonymity is so freeing

Real recognize real, as Waka says.

>why is everyone stupider than me
>said everybody, ever

let me quote this trilby tipper

the "everyone's an idiot" thing is just a defense mechanism that you developed as a result of getting shut down a lot when you tried to talk about something as a kid/teenager. you inflated how intelligent and interesting those things were and go around upset that nobody cares about the dumb pseudointellectual things that come out of your mouth nor do they like it when you shoehorn the latest sloppy interpretation of a book you read into the conversation. shut up, get the chip off your shoulder, and take a look at who you really are. you're all 18+ it's nobody's fault but your own from here on out.

The problem is not stupid people.
The problem is evil people, because those make stupid people even worse than they are by themselves.

Ask yourself why you associate with stupid people

>>4583789

>associate with stupid people

I don't associate with anybody.

>>4583789
because I post on 4chan

Various reasons. One of the biggest culprits being capitalist society.
