Dumb Questions


Question Posted Friday October 5 2007, 3:56 pm

I am a person that really likes to know "why". When I say and/or say, ask or do some things, other people will find them stupid or dumb. Like today a friend of mine was wearing old sneakers (it was obvious, they were discolored and worn) and I remarked that they looked like they smelled (simply JKing). Another of my friends, who was sitting next to me, stated that that made no sense and things cannot look like they would smell. I was rather surprised at this comment, because that made total sense to me. It may seem petty and umimportant, but this kind of thing happens all the time. My actions and words make complete sense to me, why don't they to others?

If it helps, you're a modern day Einstein in a sub 100 IQ world.



That's what you wanted to hear, right?

Others are nitpicky and very literal-minded.

Don't dweal on it. If they can't see what you can when it comes to little connections like that, it's thier loss.

Things can most certainly 'look like they smell'. Any person with a bit of imagination should be able to put that togeather.

It happens to me too. I think faster than I speak though, so when I try to put thoughts into words, I totally mess up and say things that don't make sense, and people tease me for it or don't understand.

It's natural, people hear only what they want to and they don't even try to make sense of something that they don't believe should make sense.

Just ignore it or say something else that makes no sense to combat it. People will be confused and they'll leave you alone.
