| Were there random times when you were so smart you fixed the problem in a jiffy like a total expert, ever surprising yourself? And the opposite, times when you made a fool out of yourself and acted dumb as rocks. For me it's the lather (I don't remember smart things), I befriended a girl (lets call her girl A) just to be close to her best friend (girl B because I liked her), then, girl B moved away because of her work and I was stuck with girl A who thought I was interested in a relationship with her. That was the dumbest thing I ever done |

Now I recall when I started working reception at a hotel, there was an old lady talking to my colleagues and suddenly I went: "are you some sort of a boss in here?" Everyone smiled because she was the owner and 2nd in command od that hotel lol. I don't know why I talked like that, I'm very polite at work. |

| Yeah, it was when my best friend dropped by our house that one summer Sunday afternoon in 2012. Said his hellos and how-are-yous before going down to business about some problem he and his mom had been having with their Internet connection, and asked me to come and try to fix it for them, since I may know something about it. So, there I cycled my way to their house with him, which is about 12 km away from home. I arrived to the scene and immediately took my seat on their nice comfy office chair in front of their PC, before explaining to me the whole story of what they've been going through that's been causing their migraines for the past 3 hours. They'd been trying to get access to the Internet and already searched every website they know of, but they always get the same error. His mom said they restarted the router many times hoping it'll miraculously fixed the problem. The lights were all green though, but nope, still that same error again, she continued. I've asked them if they've already contacted their ISP's tech support. They did, but every step they followed as they're instructed to do didn't go anywhere, and had pretty much lost their cool when they're advised to wait for their "IT handymen" to personally diagnose and repair the problem within 7 days by the end of the call. They're really getting desperate at that point, since they need it for some very important matter. Since we obviously got no connection to Google it instead and smartphones weren't still a thing that could've been a lifesaver with the blessings of mobile data—and the fact we also went through the same problem the reason I was called for help—I used the stuff that I still remember which I took notes of when our connection got fixed by technicians should ever it happen again. Went first through the Control Panel to get to Internet Options and checked if there have been any changes, in case we may have overlooked that. None changed, since they never really bothered with it at all and just did what they thought would get it to work properly again. And with that out of the way, I opened the command prompt to actually get started for real and did /ipconfig and all that technical stuff to reset their IP address confident enough that that would do it this time. However, I was left disappointed that it didn't. Now, I opened the browser to configure it directly through their built-in portal as it was called which can be only accessed there. Tried to reset it there assuming the ISP may have secretly rigged it to force us to use it. But, even with all those buttons and shit you'd use to make a form on Visual Basic that's supposed to work for this thing, it's still the same crap it's been showing. I was getting frustrated. I wanted to take a break after tinkering through whatever means I can to fix it, but still got that strong urge to do so and just stared at the screen for a moment to get around this hopelessness I've been feeling, and think. And there, I beheld something that's been hiding in plain sight all along. I never noticed the damn date & time was out of sync by a few years that had something to do with that damn expired certificate error they've been getting. Finally adjusted it, and what do you know? We got Internet! They were surprised, myself included. Apparently, they never mentioned they had their PC reformatted, and the technician must have forgotten to fix the date & time. And I was there, sitting for about 20 minutes, getting all worked up which they're beginning to worry that I might soon throw that poor chair out of the streets from the look on my face. We just laughed off the ridiculousness of the situation. Still got a huge treat in the end for helping them, and I was happy enough I get to slurp his mom's delicious creamy carbonara again to satiate my hunger after cycling through many uphills just to get to their house—The things I'd do for my best friend. |

| I can't think of a concrete example, but in the vast majority of instances, the very bright flashes of insight have come after having actually bothered to think about the problem in the first place and also in a relaxed state of mind, rather than being too stuck in thoughts. On the contrary, stupidity gets demonstrated the easiest when I'm too lazy/unmotivated to think about something @Konradikon: Not sure if it was your story or something you picked up from somewhere or whether it was legit, but that's a good example of stupidity. The command is "ipconfig" (without the quote marks), so no wonder it didn't work. Also, it seems like the author has never heard of "ping" or of trying out another device directly at the router and then going from there |
| No clue what a 300 iq play would even be, in my opinion I'd consider something like the neurocam scheme when I think of high IQ plays [and I've done nothing near that obviously] I guess the time when I became a traveling merchant of old looking for old oddities and flipping for profit comes to mind, on one occasion I manged to find a large "metal" lamp for $2 and despite seeing no common markings on it I acid tested it myself and found it tested positive for sterling and ended up flipping it for $80. Obviously not that much profit but when you consider how much people check shit nowdays and the internet being a thing people have gotten too smart :/ Low IQ? can't really think of any moments I completely short-circuited, I'd say most of my pain comes from whiffing clutches in games or stupid shit like that lol |
