[QUOTE="domatron23"]I'm an ignoramus.BiancaDK
How´s it workin´ out fer´ ya, then?
That is, if you have the intellectual capacity to atleast evaluate such a thing.
If not, oh boy is this awkward or what.
How is what working out for me?I'm an ignoramus.domatron23

How is what working out for me? :lol:I'm above average but not all that smart, although truley idiotic people think I'm smart.
I can imagine my mom getting on here though, she would probably go on writing paragraphs about how smarter she is than everybody just because some books she read said so. You know, that type.
I would consider myself quite smart, maybe not a genius or anything, but certainly smarter then most
My test scores would tell you I'm very smart, but I don't feel that way when among my peers sometimes. :)
Im a moron but everyone and eveything including my professors, and my grades reflect that I am smart. Its quite amusing in a sense.
I'm an ignoramus.domatron23In my experience, ignorami are generally ignorant of the word ignoramus.
Meh, I more about just learning the theories, rather than any useful application of them...
In other words, I would prefer to learn things just to learn them, not to do anything with it.rawsavon
Ohh, youre just into learning new stuff? ... and not do anything with it?
I think you can make money with your knowledge :)
Not all smart people read, some just take in the things around them. Whether you are right or wrong, its nice to at least sound like you know what you are talking about =DAverage, I guess. My grades are nothing special, and I hardly ever read in my leisure time, but people say that I really know my way with words.

[QUOTE="-Fromage-"]I've always felt like I was dumb, but lucky enough to get through conversations without appearing dumb.BiancaDKOooh, but i do believe the luck factor is really just a deviant construct of a "indexation" par rapport aux humains ^o^You call yourself dumb, and not even with the power of the internet do I understand what you mean here =P
I think that I am a genious and many people have called me very smart. I am not sure though, I have had resounding success in many things in life however there are things as well where I didnt succeed as well as many other people have who are not einstein.
I was very shy with girls in my teens and thus wasnt able to make many female friends, I didnt take care of my looks and just didnt care about girls and social life. Other people who werent made many and now are reaping the rewards of a better social life, I mostly have guys as friends and I quite regret it. I have also made a few terrible decisions in my academic life, people will say that these things dont show a lack of intelligence but I think they do as in order to be a genious you have to succeed in every part of life that you are capable of.

in order to be successful in every part of life, you have to be successful in every part of life, period. Genius is completely unrelated to this.
Let me explain why:
If i am highly ignorant of every aspectin and ofsentientlife,sentient lifecould be constituted by whatever i subjectively deem trueor false, thus i am by all meansmerited to establish my own success criterion. A complete and utter buffoon could technically achieve genius status by the reasoning you propose.
You could certainly deem yourself a genius based on this logic, but know that you could just as well deem yourself a complete moron by the same logic.
Every single report card says "Mark could achieve great things if he stopped talking in class". So yeah, make of that what you will.D3nnyCraneMine said pretty much the same thing. My name's no Mark though. It was pretty much "If Blahblah (that's my real name) applied himself more, and didn't let his classmates (i.e. my friends) distract him blah blah blah blah blah." Course, it's impossible to tell anyonme that I'm an average grade student. That that's as high as I get. Oh well. I still know I'm smarter than a few people I run into... in common sense, at least.
Wierd, I was like that till I was in 5th grade, than I just stopped trying and became a D student and from there things went downhill unless I tried. When I tried, the assignments I did, I either got an A or B on because I hate half ***ing things lol.[QUOTE="D3nnyCrane"]Every single report card says "Mark could achieve great things if he stopped talking in class". So yeah, make of that what you will. I got the same line, except it was "If you just did your work" =PGenerally I consider myself as a smart person. When I was young I was always mature for my age and found school really easy. Now I'm in high school and I've been getting average of A on each test/ exam. So, yeah, I would consider myself to be smart.

That would be an awesome job. You are in total control of "your little world", so to speak You will need at least a Masters to teach at a community college/junior college Most Universities require a PhD...unless you have accomplished some extraordinary things in the real world[QUOTE="KittyHeart"][QUOTE="rawsavon"] I taught HS math for a year...worst job ever...rawsavon
