You play to fool to fool the fool and to supirse the wise -Caleb Nathanael Torres idk I almost been afraid to show or act intelligent cause true people look at you like a smart ass or stiffler yk. A teacher once humble me by saying it's easy for you try not to show it in front of those who don't find it easy. And at first glance I felt disrespect then I empathize but then I visualize like when cecera Borgia kill a young prince just for beigh a great and outstanding person. So maybe she's right and yeah ik I'm not best with words always been lazy to remember how to spell his name and I don't think I'm smart because I don't study or nothing for some reason the dots line up for me. I like learning but I can't focus for my state of mind is terrible I'm trying find balance I lost my moral campus a person who didn't judge me and just love me for me now I feel alone and yeah you guess it distracting myself. It's like I'm that solder that keeps on digging. Anyway check on your love one a lot people need more love. Ps love you

I use to hang around with someone who use to do these things, he had a low self-esteem. I thought I could help him. I believed instead of looking for a friend you should be a friend. I use hang around with him only because we shared similar interests and he was the only one smart enough to have a conversation with and I thought he had good social skills. He sure knew how to get complex ideas across to normal people. But I now realize he didn't have good social skills and I had good social skills but never bothered to used them. He used to copy my jokes and sense of humor and my philosophical ideas. Unfortunately this loser always tried to drag me down and waste my time he was even trying to be like me without acknowledging me. It is true that being alone is better than being with the wrong people. I regret it. I will never out of loneliness be associated with people that do not contribute anything to me nor will it try to help another person like this.

I am honestly not that smart so I went to university to become a scientist! I just love science but I am crazy smart but you don't need to be though!
I am getting smarter every day because I practice my intelligence! Intelligence is not a fixed state, you either grow in intelligence over the years through intellectual pursuits or you don't, it is simple as that!
It's like all those people who claim to be intellectuals because they read books and then you find out they spend all their time reading conspiracy theories and romance novels yeah, that's not going to increase your knowledge of STEM or politics.
I can explain genetics to people really well and everyone goes to me Oh, you are so intelligent then I explained to them that at one point in my life I had to sit 5-6 hours a day reading books and journals in order to gain that knowledge. Like seriously learning science is like learning an instrument, it takes practice.

My vocabulary ranges anywhere from they want to steal your login info to they are exploiting the system in an attempt to obtain your personal information.
I use whatever vocabulary I feel like, using larger vocabulary if I want a clear and concise description of an idea or using simpler and more understandable vocabulary if I'm just chatting normally. In an argument I tend to use bigger vocabulary. Not because I'm trying to sound smarter, but because I want to be very clear in my meaning.
Do I fake my intelligence? I don't think so. Do I have genuine intelligence? Well, yes, everyone has some intelligence. Am I an overall intelligent person? I think so, but who knows? Not me. I'm far from unintelligent, but I'm also far from the most intelligent person out there. In the wise words of Qui-Gon Jinn: There's always a bigger fish.

A lot of people react to my advanced vocabulary, but to me the words I use have meaning because they better describe the subject matter; synonyms usually don't mean the exakt same thing, there is usually a better fit with one of them for that particular occassion, but I'm always happy to explain the meaning of all the words I use. Some people even think I come from a highly academic family, but I don't, my parents barely understand me; I'm just autistic and I soak up all the juicy useful words I come across and actually start using them effectively to my advantage in order to communicate as accurately as possible: )

The thing is, I can agree with this video in many ways, although there is quite a fine line between what is fake and what is real. Some people may indeed be intelligent but just can't stand people constantly trying to contradict them.
I think we should encourage people to still be openly smart and not try to dumb themselves down, but to still be humble about it, rather then tell people to kind of ignore they are smart.
This doesn't mean I disagree with this video though. I think these are good points and can be true depending on the person.

Growing up I wasnt the brightest and people def took advantage of this. It was so bad that I got into the habit of calling myself dense. I would literally make fun of myself before people got the chance. Went to college and realized Im actually smart. Now I know Im def guilty of some of these things; but I take pride in my intelligence for a reason. Especially because so many people rather me be the dumb girl whos too afraid to talk than the intelligent girl who doesnt filter her opinions.

There are also people who do the opposite, though. If anyone talks about a subject they don't understand or uses a word they don't know, they'll become sarcastic, saying ooooh you're so smart. wow what a big word. Out of insecurity they'll insinuate the other person is a pseudo intellectual in order to keep them from looking - in their own eyes - better than them.

I generally had advanced vocabulary as a kid but I did have clarity when speaking and knew what I was saying but I was just misunderstood as faking my own intelligence and I was kicked out of the social life of an average 7th grader. I was isolated and it caused a lot of pain. I wasn't faking anything but even if I was, society needs to learn acceptance.

I am intelligent but when I was watching this I realized that I haven't proven that. I was showing signs I was I was a Pseudo-intellect which isn't me. I will refrain from this for future reference. also the only reason I know so much is just autism and years of study. otherwise I am completely lost but try to learn. thanks for this video

The vast majority of pseudo intellectuals are introverts, and they'll let you know they're an introvert. They'll tell you stuff like normal people are boring, they would rather spend their time reading, they can't stand small talk, etc. They're very judgemental of extroverts and accuse us of being simple minded or shallow.

I'm here because people online keep calling me a pseudo intellectual and I don't know why (although I suspect it's just to distract from the debate as it's always brought up during a debate)
I don't think I have any of these traits. It's hard to guage myself objectively so I might be wrong.

I honestly can't understand this kind of attitude. The idea of someone faking something and feeling good about it just doesn't make any sense to me. For me it would require a complete lack of self-awareness to not realize that I'm faking it or I'd just feel awful.

This brought back a memory, this idiot when I was in school would use vocabulary that made no sense in conversations and he though he sounded great, I would correct and offer to help him fully understand what he is saying. He did not take it well.

If someone overused and misused advanced vocabulary while in a conversation with me, I would've responded with I'm having divide-by-zero errors just by trying to understand your logic and the BS that you're spewing at me!

Seriously, what do i do to a friend like this? He's isn't a guy who always brags about his knowledge, but he acts like he knows everything!
I always feel he fakes something, It's just i always agree what he says

Young people, its wonderful to be young! Enjoy every minute of it. Do everything you want to do; take it all in. But remember that you must give an account to God for everything you do.

Intelligence seems like a difficult thing to fake. I certainly can't, and I'm sure people would pick up on it if I even tried. Is the bird character a reference to Twitter? If so I thought that was funny!

On the other hand, sometimes people think you're fake because you actually READ(remember that) and have a vocabulary commensurate with your awareness of certain things. I'm just sayin'.
