How do I learn some common sense/stop being an actual idiot?

Pay attention to detail. Practice math.

I've had moments like that. Just like you, I have a full ride scholarship, 3.9 GPA, excelling at my internships, etc. But every now and then I'll blank out in a situation or not say the right word or whatever. Makes me feel really dumb.

My only thought as to why it happens is that your mind is working so hard all the time that the little details fall through the cracks. Simple or insignificant tasks get overlooked or over-thought and you mess up. Kind of like when your mind goes too fast for your mouth, and you slur/jumble words. Your brain's trying to go hard and the rest can't keep up. Know what I mean?

Also, do you have any sort of anxiety issues? For me, I'm highly OCD, so that makes my "thinking" issues worse, because my brain never shuts off. Always thinking, plotting, etc every waking second.

Get a real job if you can manage, something physical like a farm job.
Otherwise travel, expand your horrizon. Common sense might come when you least expect it.

(Also to be honnest, your parrents are right. Things take time, common sense will develop and suddently its a natural thing)

There was someone asking yesterday about why college admissions don't purely go by test scores. This sort of shit is why.

sounds like a silly mistake we ALL make. a good boss or customer or person will just be like 'LOL you're supposed to hand me ten bucks.

then you shake your head, laugh nervously and apologize. they are litereally yelling at you over a dime. think about how unintelligent that is in itself.

and thats what most common sense boils down to is people not making silly little connections that have no real meaning on anything.

Not really, if you've worked in retail for any time at all.

I think its more in general, he was just givng an example

It happens when you assume too much. You assume your judgement to be correct instead of making the effort to double check. Whenever your mind gets foggy, be aware of it and be aware to double check. Make it a habit. It'll save you a lot of time and pain.
Sometimes, your intuition will poke you. And you'll shoo it away saying it's okay. NEVER do that. Exercise doubt. Double check.
