    I see all these stupid boyfriend/stupid husband stuff, and I can’t help but think maybe my ex wife was just jealous of her friends that had stupid men in their lives.

    And maybe I’m just overqualified for relationships. I mean, shit, that was the advice my brother gave me: “I get along with people because they’re much smarter than me.” One of the first red flags I remembery ex wife telling me was “you know you don’t have to be so smarty all the time.”

    Ok, no, I can’t even lie to myself that well, can you imagine? Being overqualified for dating lol

      Can confirm, people generally prefer their version of reality over truth and knowledge. Spend a life aquiring knowledge and love teaching people just to learn they don’t really love learning how things actually are. Who knew people love to be told they are right, even if that’s not the case. X(

      Funnily enough, when you are in a situation with someone who you have discussed for example immigration with and someone else more stupid than them starts going off about immigrants and you just start ranting the same shit as them, this seems to get number one suddenly thinking a lot more about how ridiculous you look when you so it.

      Know more tricks like this, let me know. ;)
