Intelligence is relative. There is no "feeling intelligent" when there is no other person around you can compare yourself to.
If I encounter a person that is less intelligent than me, it can be annoying and boring, hence I dont enjoy feeling intelligent (in comparison to that person, ofc).
That being said, I prefer being with persons that are either on a level with me or more intelligent than I am.


Feynman shows the most important thing is being able to have fun. Some are just better than others I guess and probably the ability to keep one self busy not to experience or to fall for boredom as it kills you is one of the most important things for being intelligent...

I never see myself any more or less intelligent than the next person. If over-thinking everything makes someone intelligent though, then I may be Einstein Jr. or something!

Actually, that might just be low self-esteem. crap

Doesn't it bother you that the more intelligent guy might feel exactly same as you feel from less intelligent ones?
thas effect only happens when the difference is really great, which isnt the case for "the more intelligent guy".
so, no. It doesnt bother me.
And as I said, it can be annoying and boring. Intelligence only is one of many factors.

I honestly wish i could be a little more ignorant to a lot of things. The more intelligent you are, the more you see how broken the world is and how unfixable it is. Maybe it's a minority that think this way but i don't know. I'm not massively intelligent though.

Oh its not in the science/history books therefor it must be wrong. I'm sorry I must have forgotten along the way that science and philosophy was about thinking outside the box and looking at new ideas and theories.

One day God-of-Harem started to use his intelligence instead of watching harem anime. He started thinking that maybe, just maybe, his 2D harem, along with the best girl whom he loved, wasnt real. Best girl wifu almost lost her life within God of Harems imagination, but a new episode came out that day to distract him from further thinking.

Giving an account of being clever or stupid is somewhat difficult since no one has a point of context. There aren't that any people who were really stupid then became intelligent, and I don't think there are many in the other direction.

I mean, suppose someone is clever, they consider it normal, it's all they've ever known.

I believe that this effect explains a great number of the posts on this thread. A large number of people who assert that they are highly intelligent, most of whom are probably not especially intelligent.

Sometimes people tell me that I am intelligent; but can I trust their judgment?
