Have you ever felt like a genius?
 
Some of you might be super-intelligent, so it probably happens all the time :D

But when have you ever just said to yourself: "I'm so smart!"

ElChevelle 14th October 2003 02:59

EVERY damn time I post here;)

A lot of the time when I'm helping people with math, computers, etc.

When I'm reading through the forums and find people misplacing "there apostrophe's" (their apostrophes) and doing other things that they drill into you in English class as being improper grammar time and time again but no one ever does it properly.

100% True Story:

One time when I was 3 years old, I had a dorito. I looked at it once, and then I said: "triangle!" Then I bit off a piece of the top and looked at it again and said: "trapeziod!"

My parents were so proud of me! :D

Starfire 14th October 2003 03:07

Oh hell Never!Im not even near nor have I ever been near genious level.I know somebody who is one though.;)

ShyShy 14th October 2003 03:11

Only when I have to deal with the patients/customers. THEY make me feel like a genius, freakin' morons. :D

BullGawD 14th October 2003 03:22

Dammit, Chev. I swear you and 'jaz have all the best answers stored backstage in a thread somewhere, and an alarm goes off everytime you can use one. :D

Myself? Rarely. It makes me feel rather good if I run spell check on something and all it finds are the things I meant to be wrong. :)

Of course, this is the same person who, since we've bought a cat, always asks "Me?" after his fiance asks him to do something, even though we're the only two people in the house. :broke:

Mostly I just feel like I'm willing to work harder than most people.

Oh, and - lol, cute story Pixelcraft. :)

iomegajaz 14th October 2003 03:27

A couple of my friends aren't even in the same range of intelligence levels as I and my best mate are. He and I occasionally exchange glances when friends use big scary words, without knowing what they mean, usually in the wrong way. It's.. nice, to know I'm above average. It's really nice. =)

griffinn 14th October 2003 03:29

There was this one time when I strategically licked a lollipop until it became an icosahedron...

No, not really. :D

During the Apple ][ era I worked out where Rescue Raiders stored the amount of money you have, and cheated my way into victory. This was before the advent of automatic tracers and debuggers.

Starbucks 14th October 2003 03:34

When I talk to people who have no idea what I am talking about, I feel like a genius. :D

Trigear 14th October 2003 03:35

i feel like a genius every day, from the moment i wake up to the moment i go to bed. but especially when i'm talking to other people.

LM-huge hairy-AO!
That's genuinely genuine:D

Oh, and sorry Bull......it's all in the timing;)

iomegajaz 14th October 2003 03:37

Asking parents' friends things like, "Seen poon?" doesn't reallly do it for me. You're lucky, Starbucks.

=D =P

UpperKEES 14th October 2003 03:39

The smarter you are, the more you want to know. Then it becomes hard to accept that 98% of earth's population is rather stupid and doesn't think too much, while so much depends on them. Still we can't do without these people. In this world ignorance is bliss and life becomes a lot easier...

caitcid 14th October 2003 03:40

I felt like a genius when I was the only kid who got 100% on one of my Lang arts tests. Teacher just had to announce it! :D

Then in my Biology classes I have the most stupidiest kids that just like to cause problems with the teacher and never getting their work done. 21 people failed a test..some without even marking it..while 6 passed. X_X

I feel smart compare to some people.....

ElChevelle 14th October 2003 03:49

It is great to walk around thinking "these people are so freakin' numb" especially when you take a trip to WalMart.

teh Nightwing 14th October 2003 03:59

^ AHH! You beat me to it! WAL-MART=teh ULTIMATE Self Esteem BOOSTER!

YEah....that makes me feel like a genius and.......so does being able to have a legitimate reason to post this graphic:

BUt....don't get to use that too often. Shame.....

Fickle 14th October 2003 04:02

When I help my little brother with his homework successfully. Most of the time, it all works out.

I feel stupid when ever I try to engage in conversation with hot chicks. But I think that goes for a lot of people.

s1138 14th October 2003 04:33

everytime i walk into my computer class.....i feel like god or something :) (we are currently learning excel :D)

At the same time the hot chick feels insecure about her intelligence. ;) No need to feel timid! :)

Cylob 14th October 2003 16:59

I'm not just a genius. I'm a god.

Not the god, but a god.

Shenlong 14th October 2003 23:29

When I talk car tech with my friends, I seem to lose them most of the time...I especially know this when I try to explain to them how variable valve timing and lift works in an engine and all I get back are blank stares... :D

skinme! 14th October 2003 23:42

When I thought in phsyics once, why don't they just play the negative of a sound wave to dampen out noise and then found out a year or so later Lexus were experimenting with doing it.

griffinn 15th October 2003 01:36

That will cancel out the screams when a Lexus slams into a crowd.

And it probably explains why Lexus doesn't listen to its customers.

i felt really smart when i kept on winning the 2 player questons on "Who wants to be a millionare?" for playstation with my friend :)

deathazre 15th October 2003 04:09

I supposedly read the back of a credit card when I was 3

zootm 15th October 2003 11:16

i did something completely mundane in linux the other day, but still i felt good about it :)

When my boss thanked me for my hard work on Saturday.

xzxzzx 15th October 2003 13:36

I wouldn't know, because I only feel like me. But then, I'm a genius, so I guess that a yes. :D

Note to skinme: Yeah, that's been around for quite a while. The problem, of course, is that you have to get the anti-wave synced up perfectly with the wave, very, very close to the origional source to have the best impact. Otherwise, you can cancel out sound to a specific area (say, your ear), by wearing a headset like contraption.

I'd have felt like a genius if I'd have known how to pick locks at 4 years old;)

Raz 15th October 2003 14:56

Every time in class someone just doesn't look at the work that is incredibly easy and says 'i don't get it' 'i don't get it'. Look at the fucking thing then, moron!

Cylob 15th October 2003 15:23

Maybe they are looking but the brain just can't process?

Raz 15th October 2003 18:59

They just stare at the work. Instantly decide that it looks too hard to bother with ALL that information processing and whine. And whine. And whine. God damn, if you're that stupid, go home. It's not mandatory anymore asshole, stop ruining it for everyone else. </rant>

WomanOfHeart 15th October 2003 19:03

That double post was pure genius, xzxzzx!
I know nothing...in GREAT abundance...

k_rock923 15th October 2003 19:21

there was a time i was a genius. i was reading at a very young age and at a much higher level than i should have. I breezed through elementary school. What a joke. we had these tests to see how you did compared to everyone else in your school and i took first place in all of them. People were expecting me to go to an ivy league college when i grew up.

Now, i'm not as great in school. Still above average and I LOVED chem. I plan on majoring in it. But, its just not the same as it used to be. I know why too. Its this damn computer. Too many distractions.
