But, you're not right.
I don't trust you. You don't know them. You don't know their lives, and how hard it is.
And you don't really know how hard mine was. Or is. I don't judge people by their circumstances, Myself included.

Being labeled as dumb by a dumb person does actually prove that you're smart. I have studied that kind of behavior thoroughly. As it has happened more times than i can count with plenty of scientific and cinematic geniuses.
No I'm saying you're dumber than me; a naturally a dumb person.
Trust me, I should know.
Because I'm dumb.

What have you actually studied? What is your educational background?

I definitely don't know yours. But, you have a knack to condemn "normal people" as if their lives aren't hard.
And as i said, You guys look at things superficially, And you don't really see what makes me think in such way or act in such way.
On that point, I can agree. The only thing I can't agree with, is who's to blame for that. It's not a groundbreaking news, really, that we look at things superficially, when it comes to this discussion. Simply because I don't know you, and only have a very limited knowledge about you, my understanding will remain superficial for quite a while indeeed, especially seeing how you like to stay evasive, and aren't too much into getting deep, actually. Which then allows you to not let us see who you might be, which then lets you stay behind that knight-in-shining-armor of an argument that is "you look at things superficially". Yeah, duh, no wonder, we have a full circle there!
And I'd also like to say that, given the fact we can NEVER know anyone fully, not even ourselves, does that mean that we only ever know people superficially, all the time, despite whatever various levels of connection we might have? Again, define superficiality, because the way I see it, all connections are superficials, just fragments of personality we get to see, which can be numerous, but never complete.
Feels like I'm back in Art School. I've seen so many of you there, oh, I never get tired of it.

You admitted yourself. As I said, Being labeled as dumb by a dumb person is actually a compliment. I have a study about the state of the mind, And the researcher wrote a very interesting line. That normal people don't see the beauty of something new and different because they really can't see it. The connections they make with the world are tied to what society tells them to do. They don't see beyond that.

First Ghibli movie. Pretty great watch with great animation. Story was pretty good and I liked the environmental themes. English dub was great except the woman with a British voice

Actually, I still haven't finished college. By study I mean personal study. Supported by multiple studies I have read by neuroscientists on the internet. And as i said, I don't judge people by their circumstances, Not even me.

Are you sure? You seem to have a preconceived view of a person from just a few posts.
Having not finished college, you seem to believe your intelligence has been tested. Groundbreaking news! It has not.

Superficiality to me is being tied to see others' perspectives from your own limited one. Some people do act in the same way, And I've taught myself how to spot that and how to know which person in the crowd has the potential to be more. I'm not much of talker, Not even in real life. I just prefer to be alone most of the times, Ever since my childhood. So, I have taught myself how to respect and acknowledge perspectives that aren't mine. For example, I really like hearing other directors talk about their vision even if I don't agree with their way of narrative or storytelling. It's just subjective.

Oh, You're telling me now that formal education is a way to test intelligence? Nice. A quick google search would prove you wrong easily.

"Normal People". Wow, such a monolithic unanimous block of population all under the same stereotype. Indeed, no wonder you loved Birdman.
Seriously though, you make me so sad. You talk about society as if it doesn't affect you at all. You have such a strong Special Snowflake Syndrome...
Again, learn empathy, and try knowing "Normal People" one by one, instead of judging them as a stereotyped monolithic block of people.

Actually, That doesn't work. Tried it. Most people do really think in the same way even if slightly different.

You're wrong. Just saying that I don't think you've ever been in a circumstance, professional or otherwise that tests your intelligence.

That's the definition of cynicism. Seriously, I told you this would go nowhere because of your cynicism. So, let's just put it to an end, Shall we?
Your arguing with a brick wall.
I know. I'm really trying to avoid answering a couple of clinical case studies for work. Goddamn, why did work give me homework?!

sim, you're only really allowed to be our idiot, you know?
You know plenty of stuff actually.
Leo8skylar is uniquely dumb but thinks he's some kind of genius, then says he hates people like that, lol.

I'm not cynical. I don't think you should be acting as if you know people, yet you have yet to have your intelligence tested. Have you ever actually worked with professionals like MDs? Those people will make you look bad.

No, you mean, there's the way you see things, your own perspective, and then there's everybody else's, putting them all under a comforting umbrella that makes you think they are all alike. And since you're not interested in people and getting to know them, you wouldn't learn otherwise anyway. Quite the Ouroboros way of thinking there.
You have such a strong case of "Me versus the world", it's ridiculous. Again, empathy. If people would learn to be fucking more empathetic, there wouldn't be nearly as much shit in this world than right now. And empathy actually is the best tool to see other people's perspective.

Tell you what, I know people, The cynical view of that you gotta have experience to be good has been proven wrong multiple times. And yes, I have worked with professionals before on small projects. They have actually said that I'm very smart as well, So, Yeah.

And that's because I'm different. Smart or not. I'm really different, I don't blend with people and I don't have social skills. Society just frustrates the crap out of me.
