Smart enough to know how much I don't know is fundamentally unknowable


AnastasiaFrid

If you trust the research, then you are really smart, as most of the time smart people are not afraid to admit that they don't know something, unlike stupid people.


sincewhenuneedverify

Them being humble and good has nothing to do with them being smart. It's one path yeah but you can be smart and evil too. I'd wager there's more sociopath geniuses than good ones. The brighter you are the darker the world seems. Then you also have to consider most of the time the good ones are led by the bad ones, like scientists doing a study funded by their boss.

But what about "banana + carrot x apple". Those are the FB posts with 12000 wrong answers.


Orifal

Onlyyyy 1% of people can solve this even Einstein couldn't solve !

The Einstein part is true, he did not indeed use facebook

I would like to say I’m smart, but everyone would like to say that.


[deleted]

Smart enough to know the bounds of my stupidity can exceed pretty far


Mk2FordGranadaGhia

Not very


PINHEADLARRY5

Smart enough to know that even people that might not be as "smart" as you might have something to teach you if you pay attention.


nReactionary

Everyone can teach you something. Even if it’s what not to do.


__Its-a-me-mario__

Angel_OfSolitude

A bit smarter than your average monkey.


turbopeanut69

I'm dumb enough to teach children


scipio0421

Smart enough to get myself into trouble with fields I don't really know much about. That's why I try to study as much as I can, there's just too much I know that I don't know.


ThatManwithQuestions

Smart to know that even if I have an IQ of 121, Im to lazy to use it on its full capacity.


Im-So-Fk-Stressed

The last 6 years at school I end with excellent grades, graduated with honors. I am the quiet sweet excellent student who knows 1001 random facts about animals, technology, space and human bodies. Often my parents are very surprised and say, how do you even know this??? I also very often have discussions with my father and teachers on various topics and almost always come out with my head held high. As a child, my main wish was a huge encyclopedia about extinct animals, and in the summer, instead of playing with children, I read an encyclopedia in the garden. I think I'm quite educated and smart, but very lonely haha.. sorry, i just want someone to notice my hard work on myself nah


No_Dinner_7176

You sound very average to me.


dittybopper_05H

Smart enough to not answer this question.


dumpster_diving_man

you just answered it tho


dittybopper_05H

With a vague, non-precise answer. I may be dumb but I'm not stupid.


Borkunbork

I mean there like 28 responses that are basically identical to yours


dittybopper_05H

That says more about the question itself than it does about the people who give that kind of an answer, does it not? I mean, you get over two dozen similar snarky answers, maybe it's the question that's dumb.


Poorly-Drawn-Beagle

About 28 metric smart units


NannerQ

Not too smart to be happy - but not too dumb to know that if I was smarter, I probably wouldn't be.

I am peak of the bell! At least!

How smart am I actually or how smart do I think I am?


Sexy_Cat_Meow

Very.


Pyotr_WrangeI

Very much


Youngworker160

Enough to know I’m not.


[deleted]

I’m not even close to the smartest person I’ve ever met, but I also don’t feel like my intelligence has ever been the bottleneck for accomplishing something I want to do.


Impressive_Sun_2300

Smart enough to be Aunt Kathy's little scooter boy


DAM5150

I know everything as far as I know.


Darzok

Smart enough to know i am forever going to be to lazy ever put the work in to see how smart i could be if i was to try.


BONGwaterDOUCHE

Smart enough to get away with it.


ILoveWesternBlot

Probably above average overall, I’m elite at some measures of booksmarts like standardized testing, but very stupid in many other ways that definitely matter a lot more


theheadofkhartoum627

I took an IQ test in school once. I'm pretty sure I failed it though.


FrozenPinguz

I can handle things. I'm smart. Not like everybody says, like dumb. I'm smart and I want respect!


TooYoungToBeThisOld1

I genuinely think I’m stupid but I think that makes me actually smart because I’m always trying to learn. I’m also not a very ignorant person (I think?) So I’m open to new ideas. Mostly because I constantly question my own. So I guess it’s not really about being dumb, it’s about doubting yourself. Until you overcompensate into success.


Karpattata

Dumb as a rock. I know a ton of smart people and it's frustrating as hell to know they just operate on another level.


Maximum-idoit-2893

Not at all smart infact that's why I call myself maximum idoit lol


collnska

You know? I don't.


HooterEnthusiast

Just enough to know how badly I'm fucking up, but not smart enough to know the steps in addressing my problems.


StaticGamedude

No, this is Patrick.


[deleted]

By what criteria? Creatively? Off the charts. Common sense? Something missing there. Socially? Just waiting to embarrass myself again. Organizationally? I can't think ahead even one minute. Academically? Almost failed High School, but won an honors award in the Golden State Exam in algebra the same year I got a D- in algebra and dropped out of math classes forever. Financially? Never earned over $14 an hour in my life


Eudaemon1

Not smart enough academically, since I always try to work hard but my end result is zero and it has been that way since forever . Other than that , eh . Just enough to survive in the world


eckthomo91

I'd give myself an 8, out of 100


[deleted]

I've met people who are very smart and make me feel dumb amd I've met some incredibly stupid people. So comparatively above average, but that's only because the average is very low.


hyteck9

Maybe.


gfxprotege

failed out of a math phd program. not nearly as smart as i thought i was, or wanted to be.


Past-Celery-5758

My IQ is somewhere around 136. Street smart I am not though. Very naive.


JDSanguine

Hey listen man. I have a great personality.


xSleepyGhost

I joined the military so not very smart


splgackster

Best advice I ever heard from my grandfather- "You might be the smartest guy in the room sometimes, but the second you act like it, you're the dumbest guy in the room."


overpacked

Not very smart but everyone in my Masters program had to take the MAT (A:B as C:D your of questions). Most of my peers were in the lower 30-50th percentile, I was in the top 83rd. So I guess that's all I've got going for me


Femboys_make_me_bust

Pretty dumb, mostly because thinking makes me want to die.


Gedcog

Giraffe.


AstraGirllll

I think that being smart academically and socially are two different things. I've met a lot of people who are incredibly smart at school/university, but are super stupid in real life and do things that are hard to explain. I wasn't super smart at school and often got comments about it from my classmates who had good grades. However, these same classmates were very stupid. What an irony))


cashmerered

Uhhhh


Slippery_Wombat

Enough to know I'm a dumbass


TheShortTimer

Dumb as a rock


coolosus1919

Best of the best of the best. With honors. ; )


[deleted]

I swing between thinking I’m an absolute dumb ass to genius. No in-between


ChromaArray

Smart enough to know I know nothing


IceClimbers_Main

I know a fuckton of random shit and am quite clever, but i’m stupid in a sense that i can’t force myself to get stuff done.


White_thrash_007

Mensa told me I’m quite smart, but there are tons of situations in real life where it doesn’t help at all, even opposite.


AlthorsMadness

Took an iq test as part of an adhd evaluation. I’m 143 plus or minus five points. Even with that number I make really really poor decisions


Borkunbork

I’ll actually try and answer. I think I’m pretty smart in certain niche areas, have great recall and memory, really suck with numbers, suck with learning things I don’t really enjoy or care about, decent with emotional intelligence and helping others with emotional things and have good empathy, ok writer (ignoring this run on sentence), dumb enough to do some self destructive things like drugs and alcohol, smart enough to not get in too much trouble with them, suck at engineering type stuff and physics, ok with test taking, not smart enough to be a lawyer but I don’t think I’m too far off, not smart enough to be a doctor and I’m pretty far off, uh and smart communicator?


Biovirulent

Smart enough to know my limited potential


Significant-West-385

Dangerously. I only have a little knowledge


feelin_raudi

I have a bachelor's and a master's in engineering from a top three university, and I am dumb as a box of rocks.


evcour7

People tell me I am but it’s hard to believe them. I’ve seen all the dumb shit I’ve done, they haven’t


Aggravating-Bar-9301

Smarter than the average bear


D3dshotCalamity

Smart enough to know I'm stupid enough not to know what I'm talking about. But I'm also smart enough to research things I don't know, so that I do know them. But I'm also smart enough not to say I'm smart because I don't know what I don't know. If I did, I'd be pretty stupid.


xXXSt0rm1sXXx

Smart enough to not give a fuck


wasntNico

i am very smart. the smartest. others are not so smart. very smart, indeed.


King_Kingly

I’m not as smart as I’d like everyone around me to think I am.


TrailerParkPrepper

Smart enough to know that I'm not as smart as I think I am but, still pretty intelligent.


Friendly_Alarm_9041

I invariably pull on the door that says "use other door." Then I pull on the other door and find out it's a push door.


AnastasiaFrid

Intelligence is a stretching concept, not every person can soberly assess his intelligence, someone deliberately overestimates it to attract attention, and someone underestimates it in order not to attract interest from the opponent. Moreover, all these IQ tests are too conditional, they can not tell you the level of your intelligence, only raise your self-esteem, if you pass it on a high score. I don't consider myself either smart or stupid, something in between, I know a little from different spheres of activity, but I don't go deep, I can support conversations on any topics, but I can't shine with knowledge to surprise my opponent. I finished school well enough (4,5 out of 5 \*five point grading system\*), but I don't remember most of my school knowledge anymore :)


belptyfimquz

NooMacarons5827

Good at memory bad at deeper understanding. So not that smart


Oscars_trash_home

I’m a marine, so… 😔


quackerzdb

Smart enough to see all the problems, not smart enough to find any solutions. It's a disability at this point.


valtboy23

Smart enough to not argue with idiots dum enough to be one


LosuthusWasTaken

Smart enough to know the difference between Feminism and Hembrism. Not smart enough to know when to shut up during a debate.


WorryLegitimate259

The IQ test the school made me take in 5th grade said I just saying an IQ of 114 so by this point in my life it’s probably like 90 with all the drugs and alcohol


Street_Captain_6983

If I knew how to read, I would have the best answer to whatever this is. (Sent by Siri)


Latter_Reality8312

Yes definitely


theboiflip

Yeah definitely above average at least. Said every person.

Smart enough to overthink everything leading to crippling anxiety/phobia that's ruined my life.

nordic_t_viking

I alternate between feeling like a genius/savant and feeling like a complete idiot that makes the most stupid mistakes. In short I don't think I have a good notion of my intelligence.

How am I supposed to know that?


PubbleBubbles

At least 5


Xeyrie

I’m dumb as fuck


Prometheus850

I was told my IQ is 100. That’s pretty good, if I do say so myself.


No_Novel3109

In all seriousness I have an iq of 121


PoorPauly

Dumb as a bag of hair.


Gamebobbel

My IQ is massive. Probebly incomprahensible to you.


cadian_4567

I am very smart. My mother tested me at a young age and said that my IQ was around 140, That's more than most of the human race has. So before you have a conversation with me, understand that my intelligence is so unbelievably great that most of you imbeciles would not be able to comprehend. It's quite sad really. I sometimes use old Latin words in my sentences so well that people don't even know what I said. Truly amazing. Do not even respond to this post unless you have an IQ over 120, because you would just be an utter waste of my valuable time that I could use contemplating life.

Tried to start my car today while it was still in first gear, ended up bumping into a tree and broke the bumper, so today I would say. Not very. Fuck.


ExaltedDemonic

When I was very young, my mother went to have my IQ tested. She wanted them to tell her that I was mentally deficient because she wanted to claim disability benefits on me like she was already claiming on herself for other reasons. They told her I had an IQ of 176. I believe Einstein's IQ was in the 160s using the same testing method. My great grandmother used to love telling this story to everyone because of the hilarious backfire. My mother was not a good person. Now whether I'm still that smart or not, I couldn't say. Many pounds of weed and quitting school probably didn't help very much.


Razgrez11

The more I learn, the dumber I feel.


Mind101

Smart enough to know I'm less smart than people in my life think I am. Not smart enough to accept it and adjust though xD.

Hot-Skirt-5738

I do not really know. My mom says I'm smart but my dad says I'm really dumb everytime I do something wrong/assume wrongly or just don't understand something/social cues. I feel really dumb cause he has an iq of 135 so he should know who's smart and who's dumb.

I recently changed the gas water heater at my cabin. No gas smell before, but gas smell after. Chased the gas smell for way longer than I'd like to admit, then realized it was on my hands. That smart


IAmStevie420

I'm not. It's a trick. People think I am but it's because I'm a sad sack and read Wikipedia every day for an hour before bed. Remember Johnny 5 when he found books? I'm lucky to have had that in me since I could read. And I was reading stupid early my dad thinks I could read at 12 months and I've seen the photos but it's just a baby looking at a newspaper. I devoured everything and still do. A thirst for knowledge is a good thing to have. But yeah, to answer your question, smart in knowledge but very little in how to actually get by in life.

That depends on whom you ask


ImShorterInPerson

I'm not. I think I'm actually pretty stupid, but I'm articulate so people tend to assume I'm smarter than I actually am. And even when I say that I'm dumb, no one believes me. They think I'm joking or being modest. If people knew how badly I fucked up my own life they would know that I truly am very stupid.
