Do you see in "Smart-o-vision"? Do stupid people annoy you CONSIDERABLY more than usual? Are mathematics and scientifics blisteringly easy, while socializing and semantics are not? From an honestly stupid person, to you the smartass, please answer.

Things come to me considerably fast. I dislike talking to stupid people. The things they say are, well stupid and I don't like dumbbing things down or explaining things to them.

zatwera said: "People expect you to know things... So annoying.." agreed. and to me, they expect me to have the highest grade, and when some one else tops me, they celebrate like it's the biggest deal. i'm happy they did great, but i don't want to be the bar they have to top. i just don't want the recognition.

Math and science aren't "blisteringly easy". But it's not difficult after you've read through the material. Talking to stupid people is not annoying, unless they're asking about what we learned and can't understand anything. Semantics is easy, but I prefer not to socialize with 95% of the kids at our school.

It's excruciatingly painful. People either want to ask you things, or, they think they're superior for not learning the material they are supposed to.
