    Not really...When I was younger I believed I was like the supreme ruler of intelligence and was kinda arrogant in that sense. Luckily I've grown up a bit and out of that kinda mindset :p

    Im smart enough to get myself out of the many sticky situations i get myself into, but i get into those situations by not thinking or being dumb....so no, im not too smart for my own good...smart enough to get by though.

    Not really, as there always more inteligent people than me.
    There are always dumber people than me.
    That keeps my feet on the ground.
    How on earth do you test real inteligence?
    Can't be done.

    There are no dumb people, just dumb actions. intelligence varies from each individuals stand point.

    I think so.
    I think there is innate inteligence and aquired inteligence.
    One helps the other.
    But, just because I know a lot about a particular subject, does not make me inteligent IMO.
    There are always going to be people that are more knowledgeable than the next person.

    I don't think you can be too inteligent for your own good
    But, I do think you can be out of your depth and to arrogant to aknowledge the fact.

    Meh, what do I know...hands over to someone more knowledgeable than him :rolleyes:

    I'm really good at IQ tests. Top two percent. MENSA member for a brief time and all. lmao.
    If ninety-nine people and I were in a room together, one of you would score higher or equal.

    and that's about the dumbest thing for a smart person to say.

    The smartest thing a smart person can do is not let anyone know ;)

    I thought it was: The smartest thing a smart person can do, is keep their mouth shut.

    i think i'm too logical for my own good. if something doesn't make sense to me at the time i just won't do it.

    If anyone thinks "they are too intelligent for their own good" I would say they are more than likely clouded by arrogance and probably not as intelligent as they think.

    And if they are, then they aren't using it and do not deserve it.
