I vote I'm intelligent. So I have 1 vote that I'm intelligent, you have one vote you're not intelligent. Me win!

There you go reducing the thread to a single perspective.

It's like saying "no-one understands you", it's truthfully 'the majority' and not 'no-one', but you are frustrated to become secure in your falsity.

Nono, it's TWO perspectives: witty or not witty. The world is made out of dualities!
 
I'm going to leave you in your stupor while I do what's necessary to fix your mistakes (which I do quite well).

For those who read this, his attitude is considered intellectual. It's his attitude that's considered the intellectual norm, and it's obviously a stupid, out-of-control attitude.

I'm out of this forum and onto another, see ya.

You said two times already that you would leave this forum! You're clearly not as omniscient as you claim to be!
 
"The Dunning–Kruger effect is a cognitive bias in which relatively unskilled persons suffer illusory superiority, mistakenly assessing their ability to be much higher than it really is." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dunning–Kruger_effect

and

"Hanlon's razor is an aphorism expressed in various ways including "Don't assume bad intentions over neglect and misunderstanding", "Never assume malice when stupidity will suffice", and "Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by carelessness". It recommends a way of eliminating unlikely explanations for a phenomenon (a philosophical razor)." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hanlon's_razor
 
Show's over folks, s13ep is obviously a very busy, very intelligent person who has to go away to fix things now that we, the dumb dumbs, couldn't possibly understand.
