grow up faggot

I try to suck it up and learn as much as I can from them as long as I can.

It does kind of feel like having your most prized possessions stolen from you with the high possibility of never seeing them again.

>and they're younger and more successful as well

>>3592552
just think of it in video game terms. they are better than you because they have more experience and better items.

"People in their right minds never take pride in their talents."
From Harper Lee's To Kill A Mockingbird.

Reminds me of this one time where I finally met this cute girl who was not only intelligent, but attracted to me for mine, and things were going great at first. But then she met this guy who was not only even more intelligent than me, but was a musician and such a successful artfag that he could make about $600 - $20,000 on a single piece by him, and she ended up hanging around him more and I saw less and less of her until she was gone completely. I was struck so hard by this that I literally ran into my bathroom and kept vomiting for the next half-hour, worst experience of my life.

you guys are pathetic

Guys, the same goes for people who are athletic. Just be comfortable with yourself

I met a guy like this in high school. Not only was he smarter than me, he was well versed in every kind of logical argument and flaw there is, He was a non-denominational christian, incredibly popular, pretty attractive, and fluent in 5 languages. Without a doubt, he is the person most worthy of life I've ever met. I felt inadequate at first, but then I realised it was getting me nowhere, and that moping around did nothing. The truth is, once you teach yourself to treat the tenets of logical thought as innate, you gain the ability to think like the smartest people in the world. Only then do you get to bitch about other peoples' intelligence.

LOL

>>3592583
Y U NO VIRGINIA TECH?

>>3592583
I'm going to post this on /soc/, /adv/, and maybe /b/ to see what kind of replies I get.

>>3592613
link and we can begin a study

When I was growing up, I could flawlessly do any homework I was given. 100% in spelling, and grammar, from the age of 4 to about 15. Same in maths, and science, and even art sometimes

then ewe had 6 week homework projects. BAM. Failed.

Fuck you for not teaching me to work, world.

I get Anonymous 3! I get Anonymous 3! Might as well, I have more experience in psychology anyway.

>>3592625
This is going very well. Poor chaps are falling for it.

>>3592644
I'll be Alexandra Preacher, even if I'm a dude.

>>3592654
Very well.

Captcha had HeLa in it, so that's nice.

Only the insecure feel threatened by the superiority of others. Everybody is unique. Your value as a human being is not determined by your supposed competence or lack thereof in a vaguely defined and subjective area such as "intelligence". tl;dr Get over it, you vagina.

>>3592625
Subjects in Group /soc/ appear to express the most regard for the feelings of OP.

>>3592670
Agreed. I'm adding some additional backstory to group /b/ and keeping group /adv/ as an analog.

>>3592636
wizard?

uh, problem in group /b/. Looks like someone injected a second backstory. Taking remedial action to see if we can save the study. Do Not Post to group /b/.

>that feel when you purposefully avoid looking at yourself in the mirror and forget over time that you have a head and in the process completely redefine how you experience reality

>>3592687
I know that feel

Ha, the /soc/ thread had a subject recommending OP to go to the gym 5x a day.

>>3592694
Similar results in past study on "reddit". Subjects informed us to "LAWYER UP" and/or "HIT THE GYM". Results were the same for varied problems, from dilemnas to trust issues.

>>3592666
Satan get.

Use your life as effectively as you can, do eet for humanity.

>that feel when you see this thread on /sci/ every fucking day

>>3592707
Shit happens bro.
Want an x-com dump to cheer you up?

>>3592685
okay! lol

OP - well, inevitably there is somebody smarter than you, and most likely its a female. They are generally smarter than the average bear.

It doesn't matter if somebody is smarter than you, they probably believe in a lot of facts that aren't even factual anymore.

What does 'smarter than' equate to? Nothing really. There are plenty of very smart poor people you'll never see in your life and undoubtably some of them live in poverty but are smarter than you.

And some are dumber than you but will still be better in stuff, like an idiot savaant. Whatever.

I knew a kid who was 182 IQ, my best friend for a few years, the armed forces wanted him but kept screwing around and he died before they could take him 5 months after he applied and 3 months after they 'accepted' but they couldn't get their shit together and actually accept him.

Smart as hell, could have been a very useful asset, wanted to be one, but you'd think 5 months would have been long enough to accept somebody who is vastly intelligent into the united states forces.

It wasn't.

I'm going to check up on Group /adv/. Hypothesis on /soc/'s reaction?

>>3592718
I've entered discussion with /soc/, as both other groups have ceased discussion. Currently testing the waters with some ethical dilemmas.

wow. /b/ is really paranoid of trolls aren't they?

>>3592729
We did sort of condition them, so yea.

>>3592729
Everybody there is always trolling.

>>3592738
Everyone here is always trolling. We're so apt that few people actually realise this on arrival.

/sci/ is Oxbridge's PPE's pet project, like landover baptist but more interesting and active.

>>3592747
No we're not.
We're just a board, nobody here is a hivemind unlike landover baptist and nobody here is trolling.

What you're trolling?

>>3592756
Denial is the most predictable of all human responses. But, rest assured, this will be the sixth time we have destroyed it, and we have become exceedingly efficient at it.

there is no <span class="math"> visible [/spoiler] hivemind here.

>>3592766
I don't understand.
Anyways, no we're not always trolling, you may want to lurk /b/ or /v/ if you want to troll.

As a matter of fact, /sci/ trolls only start math threads that aren't resolvable, the rest is just joking and then we have the /b/tards who create a religion vs atheism thread every day

>>3592772
Like I alluded to, some people don't accept that we're an extensive network of trolls.

This is our project. The philosophy class decided to use /new/, but things got polarised and ridiculous so the boards decided to shut it down.

Hypothesis: Group /soc/'s IQ is below the score required to sense a troll.

Captcha, nsifety astrophys

>>3592786
So.. you're shitting up the boards?

>>3592791
Mind if I co-author?
>>3592797
we are the boards. The /sci/ BBS is not trolling, nor are /newnew/ and /newpol/. We go there, but we don't intervene.

>>3592797
Might I add, don't you guys even question your morals behind it? You made moot, the creator of this website, to shut down a board that was actually a perfect topic, and it was all because of an "experiment".
Shame on you.

>>3592808
No, you're not the boards.
5/10.

I just rationalize and make pathetic excuses in my head until I believe myself to be superior to every person I meet.
So no, I don't know that feel.

>>3592808
>>3592791
You guys should be taking statistics relating to things such as what percentage of posters attempt to help and which boards have people that are more likely to put in their own story.

>>3592810
/new/ was always a loose canon. With all due respect, pure philosophy students being hilariously sarcastic aren't actually that entertaining. I think (though I don't actually know more than I picked up on the forums) that we pay moot some miserable level for letting us play.

Moot and the boards decided /new/ had gone too far and was just ridiculous, and we couldn't see much way of pulling it back. It was initially supposed to be a place for devil's advocates but it just became "derp derr black people"
>>3592824
yes

>>3592828
It's not for you to decide if it's entertaining or not, you do not shit on other websites where people go and participate on the community rather than experiment.
Fuck you.

FUCK ALL Y'ALL FAGGOTS. LOVE FROM /b/

>>3592827
Definitely. We tried an omegle survey and ran a script taking down average age on a few genuine boards but they fizzled out in may.

>>3592834
Is it really you? tell me if it is.

Anyway, if there's no knowable distinction between an experiment and a legitimate chan, why is one fine and the other worthy of personal insult?

this isn't my idea, just so you know. I'm a student.

>>3592848
Because you shit up the community, that's why.
I could have gone to /new/ and hear about the personal opinions of people who actually are interested in certain matters and have a nice conversation, but instead we got hipsters like yourself who decided to "experiment" and shat up the board.

There lies the difference, a shit community who is voluntarily being shit, and a good community.

>This thread

>>3592851
>because you shit up the community, that's why

There was never a community outside of the one we made, I'm not aware of any way to shit it up.

/new/ was at least 90% fabricated. I'm sorry, but it's true. We've been told not to post on the text boards (which still exist, by the way) so you can try there if you want legitimate discussion. We're not being voluntarily shit, we're trying to match the level of discussion found on 4chan. I'd say we're doing rather well.

>>3592861
Thank you.

I still dispute the usage of the word "troll" given we're doing the exact opposite of trolling

>>3592860
And by 4chan, you mean /b/ right?
Get the fuck out of here.

>>3592867

>>3592874
Look at /g/. That's the board we came from. Also, as /b/ is the largest board yes, we have some pretty bad discussions. Then again, we also have a lot of monikers we use for useful information.

At least he's pretty innovative.

>>3592583
*hugs*
Sorry, man. You should become really successful and make it rain over that bitch, then drive away.

Sorry, I took a break to fap to a camwhore on /b/. Has any more information been gathered?

>>3592928
I told someone about what /sci/ actually is and they flipped out, probably shouldn't have done that :s. That is a nice cat.

>>3592928
What are those two large orbs under your shirt?

>>3592941
That's not Alex,

every fucking day, i see this thread.

every
fucking
day.

>>3592935
Interesting. Indeed it is a nice cat. It belonged to a subject on /b/.
He's another sample for the study. As you can see, subject /b/-#18549 has nice breasts.

Nobodies smarter than me, they just work harder and have better opportunities.
