>>16471933also, i don't think you're dumb, it's funny because i know someone else that calls themself dumb too but i don't think they are, they got straight a's in school but they told me they always had to work really hard to get them, for me i didn't have to work hard for it and i know some other people didn't either and yea maybe that's true that they had to work hard but still whenever i talk to them they're thoughtful and understand ideas pretty well, not that different from you in that way, after all you've typed there's a limit on how dumb you could possibly be, it's not just the amount that you type but the fact that you're typing novels about all these different random topics with all these different considerations for different variables or outcomes, maybe other people usually think being smart is being good at math or doing well in school or whatever and sure those can be things that some "smart" people do but not doing those things doesn't make them "dumb," i don't think textwalls makes you einstein but personally i'd say at the absolute worst you're in the top 20% for intelligence out of the regulars on this board, there is no possible way more than 80% of regulars here are smarter than you, i do think you could worse at math than the average bantoid but still
