I need help, faggots. I have a friend that thinks he's

>>18330526
I dont know also, well try beating him up?

>>18330526
Talk to him about it earnestly and privately about how it makes you feel. If that doesn't work, cut or reduce your contact with him. Remember, people can change overtime, don't let legacy trap you in a toxic friendship.

>>18330526
Remind him that he might know more than you in certain things, you two are both in high school, so the only way to actually prove that he is much smarter than you is by intellectual achievements at the scale of USAMO, or inventing something, or writing a decent book, not just some simplistic kid puzzles or knowledge of the trivia. Did he achieved any of those things? if he said he is smart but not motivated (the go to excuse of average people), you said you can claim the same thing. So, at best he is slightly smarter than you, and if you are a retard, that still makes him a retard or borderline. More importantly, use this as a motivation to do better than him in school. Get into better college.

Honestly I have never been in your situation, but I can imagine it is pretty scary if Gauss or John von Neumann act like your friend at your age. As a kid, they would effortlessly demonstrate their vast superiority over a normal kid. However, I don't believe it is possible for any genius to act like your friend. Here is a (plausible) proof:

Edward Teller is the physicist who created Hydrogen bomb.
Edward Teller admitted that he "never could keep up with him". (refer to Von Neumann)
Teller also said "von Neumann would carry on a conversation with my 3-year-old son, and the two of them would talk as equals, and I sometimes wondered if he used the same principle when he talked to the rest of us."

That is how genius sees normal people, they would spend every effort to talk as equals to normal people, so that the content of the conversation is understood, because that is the only thing they care about, because for them, it is utterly pointless to establish any kind of superiority over normal people. Would you call a 5 year old a retard because he can't answer something? no, unless you are another 5 year old. See, the point is, what your friend has demonstrated is that the gap in you two's intelligence is minuscule.

Just ignore the dumb faggot. When he aggravates you think about how he probably has a 45 IQ fetish like giantess or inflation or some shit. Only talk to him when it's to exploit the fact he has revealed his own stupidity. Keep tabs of every time he's a hypocrite and relentlessly chip away at his self esteem until he's eating his own feces out of the toilet.

Fuck that sounds like me. He lifts too, doesn't he?

He sounds like he's not smart, at all. Maybe he knows pointless trivia or shit thy is insignificant to human interaction.

It is said that arrogance is a sure sign of lower intelligence. I would cut him out.

He's obviously not smart enough to treat people with respect. He's obviously insecure about his intelligence, and probably more.

>>18330660
Yes, he is 5'8, spends a lot of time at the gym. You have small-ish dick, too, don't you?

>>18330686
>ish

If he's past the point of deluding himself into thinking it's average, the damage is gonna be worse than that.

>>18330526
Give him a fedora for his birthday, and add acknowledgement that he's intelligent somewhere in the card. Hopefully he'll get the message

>op here

Probably you guys who were here and helped me won't be reading this. But thank you so much.

This. Make him feel like an idiot for his obnoxious, idiotic behavior

You know that "golden rule" they teach you in elementary? Fuck that rule.

Life's rule is that you treat people the way they treat you. Respond in kind and insult him back. If you can't do that then distance yourself from him.
