Why does everyone think they are right and everyone else is stupid?

**VILEPLUME** · 08-09-2011, 09:57 AM

It was when I was hanging out with one of my "not so bright" friends. He was high and talking about how "everyone is so stupid, for believing that, or working that job, or, etc". Then I myself started saying, "my friend is really stupid". I mean, he was saying some pretty dumb things. Anyways, then I caught myself thinking, "am I really that smart?". I mean, I think I am ok for smartness but who is smart? Scientists, Historians, Professors? But they all dont 100% agree with each other either.

So I just came to the conclusion that everyone thinks they are smart and everyone else is a dumb ass. I mean, who hasnt sat around and talked with friends about "this person is dumb, etc"?

Being smart isn't about what you know, it's about knowing what you don't know.

Because that's the way things are. People have opposing views so they argue in hopes the other person will agree with them.

As you and your friends grow older, I'm guessing your in your 20's, early at that, that you did not know NOWHERE near as much as you thought you did. Odds are the friend you speak of is the Dumbass of your circle. No? He will be the one in his 30's and 40's being fucked by Life because HE never figured it out.

You are on the right path, my friend.

Always question. People who are smart always question. They never accept that they know something without question.

Some people are not as intelligent, its a good chance your friend applies. All humans are not Equal.

My point was, is that everyone points out how dumb other people are, but really are you that smart? I am sure you all are, but I am also sure you would not agree with a lot of things.

I guess my point is, it is a good thing we dont all agree?

Maybe I should of posted this in the toke forum lol.
