Isn't there an r9k on some other chan you could go to? This is /sci/ - Science & Math.

I can't say that I've had that problem.

>> No.3877959

I find it annoying when I can't follow someone's arguments and I feel like they're talking that way just to flaunt their education.

Although to be fair I probably sound like that to a lot of people.

Lemme put it this way: when intelligence is the only quality you have to offer about yourself, meeting somebody with more of it is like being a homeless that finally found his first meal in days, and then somebody steals it right out of your hand.

It's even worse when the more intelligent individual is also better looking than you and more skilled socially. Those guys don't deserve to be intelligent, they have it easy enough as it is ;_;

I hate it when people are overly wordy. You can slam their point of view down with a page of evidence, but you have to wait for them to finish impersonating some Professor from the 1800s before you get a chance.

I took piano lessons and learnt French and how to cook. I also work out and mountain climb. Coupled with my major I'm better at more things than most people. So I meet someone who is better at math than me? Well, that's all they have. I'm great at many things, they're great at one thing.

It's not like I was born into a wealthy family. I was trying to make you feel better by suggesting you pick up some hobbies you enjoy and get good at them. Helps you feel productive and accomplish even if you know others better than you.

No, YOU'RE a fucking dick because you're an overly skilled pleb that needs to suffocate to death on a bag of porridge. Some of us can't obtain more than two or three qualities regardless of effort. Go somewhere else like a club or party or whatever shit you social fucks do and leave the intelligence and academia to us. Stop taking away our chance and place in life you cunt.

this,

of course I've met people who thought they were superior to me, but I have ways of completely admonishing their smugness using my vast collection of facts, skills, and experience.

also gpa doesn't equal intelligence, it just means you're a better trained dog

>> No.3878042

I think most of /sci/ is in deep enough denial about themselves that they don't think they've ever met someone smarter than them.

But if that is your real reaction, then you probably just kill yourself for real, since that is really, really pathetic. You should be happy to meet people smarter than you, and more happy the rarer such meetings are. I mean, if you're not a miserable faggot.

He's more intelligent than I am, has a 4.0GPA, an had a 97% average in highschool.
He was also not beta, but an alpha, and hanged out with everyone, went to parties and etc.

I admit, I sometimes am jelly of him, but guess what?

We're best bros with each other. He's probably going on to do engineering or maths, while I, onto physics.

Idgaf if he's smarter, I do what I love, he does what he

Protip: The smart people are typically good looking. Sure, you get those weird looking ones who just happen to have a talent and go further in their field, but most ugly people are also stupid. Typically, someone of above average intelligence is also reasonably good looking.

But I can't one up them like I do in my fantasies. They're smarter and everyone knows it. Sometimes I just disagree for the sake of disagreeing. Just makes me look bitter.

If I find someone "smarter" than me (the term being relative), I try to ask them as many things as I can and learn from them. If you have a gold-laden pot full of the treasure of knowledge, why the fuck would you feel depressed like a little beta bitch? Fuck that brain and milk it for information, faggot.

LEARN FROM THEM.

Do you think I am jealous of Tesla? Of Sagan? Of Einstein?
NO. I strive to understand their mind and learn from them.
I am very smart myself, most people I know think of me as the smart one out of my little friend group, but even I still look up to people!
Seriously, jealously is a foolish and useless emotion.
