>>5036Depends on why you'd think you're smart.
Most people who are completely and utterly competent and amazing in a certain field are retarded in many others.
I'm biased but I see three types of main intelligence, that you gain through an interest or habit (art, music, programming, etc) this is all gained through habitual training/repetitive action. Usually the highest praised although it's main hurdle to overcome would be dedication.
Then social intelligence, this is attained through being attractive/being socialized while young, this is mainly manipulation which becomes easier the more attractive you are (stacks with the above type too) and having been socialized you become well learned with social norms/what people want to hear.
Then lastly realism, which is mainly in the realm of "pessimism"
this doesn't take dedication as much as just an open and empathetic mind. This is the least difficult as it's not as tedious as pushing a stone up a hill (until you hit that wall), but it's best to avoid it if you're wanting to be socially intelligent unless you're say Charles manson.
Anyway anon a difference of an iq of 100 and 140 isn't much different in the grand scheme of things, your still trapped in a system with a median iq of 80, many people will call you dumb for just sitting with your problems but if you knew they were that easy to fix you wouldn't keep yourself from expending the energy to do so.
sorry for rant
nothing wrong with being silly in a clown world.
