They've caught the scent of a greater stag.

After seeing how the “average” person reacts with stressful situations, I hope like hell our average intelligence raises quickly after all this

I would like to think that I am smarter than the average person. I've done well enough at life that I can live contentedly.

However, I know there are plenty of people way smarter about a lot of things than I am. High School was a breeze for me, getting nearly all As with only limited work - then I got to college and had to really work - meanwhile around me were students cruising as easily as I had in HS plus being athletically or artistically talented with what seemed like little effort.

A work colleague and I discussed the phenomena of feeling smart. Of course we both thought we brought talent to the company. But around us were coworkers who exhibited idiocy on a weekly basis, some daily. Without fail, each of those low performing employees thought of themselves as clever, smart, hardworking, or had some "other smarts" - in other words - valuable employees.

So if they all thought they were smart when they clearly were not, just how accurate is anyones self evaluation?

I may not be smarter than the average citizen, but I am pretty sure I am smarter than the mouth breathers that tend to populate the DC lounge.

Because Brawndo's got electrolytes!

We are there.

We were all smart enough to persevere for many years as Chiefs fans to see them reward us with an epic postseason run and a Super Bowl championship. That brings all of us - save JakeF, RedDawg, and okchiefs - onto the 'above average' level.

Wow who knew that being a Chiefs fan is a precursor to supreme intelligence. Fascinating.

14 years here and you're just now getting this. Sorry you haven't got the supermodel girlfriend or can bench 400 lbs yet.

Well, if you were one of the smart people, you would have known that.

The day before yesterday I was 21, and next year I will be 24. When is my birthday?
