little did you other posters know that this is a subtle and brilliant variation on the "to intelligent for ____" meme that the cool kids have been using these days

My grandmother used to give me a loonie every week and then get angry at me for the rest of the day so that I would be conditioned into hating money.

Anything Ayn Rand?
I mean, at least Atlas Shrugged and Fountain head is sort of "Revenge of the nerds", especially Atlas Shrugged.

The good/Hardworking/Intelligent people do all the good in the world and the stupid/dumb/egotistical people do everything bad. So the good people decide to just stop and let the stupid ones rot in their own failure.

It's pretty much the plot, just missing 1050+ pages.

Why not use intelligence to adapt? How can you call yourself intelligent when you can't into adaptation? Socializing, persuasion skills, attaining influence and power. It's not impossible to observe and imitate that stuff or read a book on it and find out what the essential skills are.

Always bugged me about these intelligent ones. Put that shit to use.

OP can't do that, or else his identity falls apart. Allow me to explain.
OP has got no actual accomplishments or talents to derive pride from. So he derives pride from an innate quality he believes he possess; his intelligence. Now, as I said, dude's got no actual talents or accomplishments, so there's no real evidence that he is intelligent. In order to support the notion that he intelligent, OP tries to like like he thinks a smart person is. A lot of that is just rejecting popular things. Football? No thanks, that's for dumb jocks! Popular music? ugh, vapid garbage. Superhero movies? What is he, a child?
The problem is, he hasn't actually replaced it with anything. OP isn't shut up in some lab doing biochem research. He isn't doing some kinda cool Maker thing or getting way into art restoration or anything. OP has no actual passion. Maybe he watches a lot of anime or something, but that's just passive. He doesn't create. Getting back to the first thing, no actual talents or accomplishments
So OP is in a situation where his entire identity is built on a single claim(I am intelligent) which is resting entirely on a single support(I don't take part in mainstream society, because it's for dummies).
Kick out that support, the whole person comes tumbling down

Let's say that an intelligent person can use what is given to them better than a less intelligent person. Thus, the intelligent person could learn calculus in a week because all he needs to know is inside a textbook, but he can't socialise as easily because he lacks the experience. How people react to certain things, how to make small-talk etc. It's impossible to learn this sort of things by reading books or watching people talk in movies. If you didn't get this experience before 16-20 years old you are stunted for life.

He doesn't hate you though, since he's an easygoing person who doesn't harbor hate in his heart.

It's not as if you could relate

>>8767192
Fucking kek. If you can't figure out how to make eye contact with people and ask "How are you?" at the beginning of a conversation you're not very smart
>>
>>8767222
You seem to see intelligence as a trait encompassing all it takes to be a human. All I can say is that only stupid people do this.
>>
>>8767252
What the fuck are you talking about? You're the one who's having a miserable time because you think your intelligence makes you better than everyone else. What's more likely, that ALL of society is wrong, or you're wrong?
>>
>>8767267
This is what I am talking about. You understood nothing of what I've said and you can't express yourself coherently. You don't need to know what you're talking about to talk.
>>
>>8767316
My post is perfectly coherent you dipshit. You are not "stunted for life" if you don't learn how to make small talk when you're 16 years old. All you have to do is act polite and normal and people won't know you're an autistic weirdo.
