A few days ago a man was lamenting that the horror in TN was "just another day." Responder wrote "Media wants headlines." I disagreed as this is historically a passive means of assmilitation of others. He said "You are really trying hard to sound smart." I wrote "I'm not smart."

Smart, as is measured now, uses MMPI, IQ, spatial reasoning, math, language and behavior to qualify "smart." Smart people are extremely adept at compartmentalization, life/work balance. Problem solving day to day issues with practical solutions. As such, they tend to be stable.

I suck at compartmentaliztion. Do not separate life, study, work. I work long-term big problems with singular focus, use uncoventional, bizarre and others insights to highly productive results. I am unstable, make awful decisons day to day. No assessment of me uses "smart"

Quantifying intelligence is difficult and imprecise, but there are patterns. Intuitive intelligence has different behaviors for example. I wish I were smart. Life might be easier for me and all around me. And the message went right over his smart head.
