First, I will start off with the statement that made me most this in this particular forum...
"I am the smartest guy I have ever met."
How's that for controversial? The problem is, most of the people who know me believe i, too. I literally seem to absorb information. I also have, what I would consider to be, an obsessive compulsive disorder. When I become interested in a subject I find it difficult to exercise moderation.
I became interested in photography about a year ago after my daughter was born. I just wanted to take better quality photos. I have now worked with 3 of the premier professionals in the Dallas/Fort Worth Area and when I talk to them, I realize I know more about the technical aspects than they do.
I was a Navy Nuke and scored at the top of my class in what is said to be the third toughest school in the world. I met Mensa's guidelines but never bothered to join. The last time I took a formal IQ test, I scored a 163.
I say all that to solicit advice and try to give background info that will make that advice applicable.
Honestly, I can't explain it. I just seem to absorb information. Some of it is from my studies in speed reading. Some of it just came natural. Some of it came from reading 10's of thousands of books.
In any case, I am at a crossroads in my life.
Currently, I am a Chief Engineer working on a critical facility for one of the Fortune 50 companies in the world. I am well paid, I work with a great team, and I like my job...but I am bored.
I see a thousand things we could do different but am met with the inevitable obstacle of that's how we always did it.
So, finally to my point, what do you do, if you are the smartest person in the room, bored, and don't have the authority to change things?
Are there any auditions out there? How do you become part of a think tank? How do you cut through the red tape and the egos in order to get to a point where you are actually making a difference instead of just adhering to idiotic policy that was put in place for no logical reason?
How do you get past the obstacles that are in your way just because you may be younger or different? How do you find a company that is actually looking for excellence and do you know of any interviews or auditions where somebody could prove their skills?

Your going to bored for the rest of your life unless you find a hobby that can challenge your superior intellect.
Only chance of cutting through the red tape is if you were noticed by the scouts while you were at the uni.
Guess your stuck.

Your increased intellect from what I gathered probably has a large basis of information you've consumed. The brain is most definitely like a muscle, and you've trained to be a powerlifter.
I understand your dilemma though. The only person I've ever met that I've even considered more intelligent than me overall is my father. But the man is a scientist who does research in fringe electromagnetism.
Everything will bore you until you find something that makes you question whether you can actually pull it off or not.
You might live your life squandering your gifted intellect, or you might be one of the lucky ones who coincidentally finds something suited towards his gift.

Make the change. If it is more efficient then you cannot be met with negativity. If it is less efficient, then you are incorrect in your analysis of your superior intellect.
If you're really as intelligent as you think you are and want to do something with your mind, go get your PhD in something and do that. That's what really intelligent people do, as having a PhD allows you to make money basically doing nothing but thinking. Being a Nuke Tech in the Navy is no where near comparible to having your PhD in Nuclear Physics.
I do not consider myself among the intellectual elite, but I have been in situations where I was BY FAR the smartest person around, as well as being in a position where I had absolutely no authority, even over myself. I often wondered how the people I was under were able to tie their own shoes. It was miserable and I hated almost every day of my life. So, I definitely feel you on that one. But, my original statement still stands. I am finishing my degree and I'm sure when I get a job, I will be mostly around people around or above my level of intelligence.
Got a Game Idea? Look Here!
Play WoW, I heard it's pretty addictive and time goes by pretty fast
We're all Geniuses. Most of us just don't know it.
I'm in a Ph.D program right now. I can tell you for certainty, there are not many intelligent and bright people here
People who have to create conspiracy and hate threads to further a cause lacks in intellectual comprehension of diversity.
It depends on what PhD program you get into. If you were in a Computer Science, Math, Engineering, Chemistry or Physics PhD program, there would most certainly be some of the brightest people you've ever met.
If you're getting your PhD in Art, Business, English, etc.... well... yeah, probably not. I've known many Engineering Majors and Computer Science majors grab their MBA, just because it requires less effort than it took for their junior year.
Got a Game Idea? Look Here!
Well that's a very interesting problem you have......one that I do not fully understand......what I do not understand is why your asking for information or leads on new opportunities. For myself I have never had to ask for leads on anything to be given a new challenging project, I simple send them a nice list of very well known leaders who they call and are explained in detailed why they would be foolish not to give me whatever I want in order to secure what I can do for them. You give the impression that you feel powerless to affect change, or to initiate change, from my experience there is a very clear difference between an individual who can actually and effectively bring efficient productive change backed up by actual real hard facts, and an individual who likes to think of themselves of being able to bring change and cut through the red tape.
Today business leaders are looking for ways to save, to be more productive, to be more efficient. Case in point, I just finished a project in Canada were I streamlined a warehousing complex manufacturing base that specializes in pharmaceutical care. In 2009 they had a full time staff of 502 employees with full benefits and continued costs associated with labor entitlements. As of January 2011 they now have 3 employees not only managing the work load of 499 employees but factually increasing the productivity base by 31 points. I am already on to my new challenge in Europe managing the development and construction of a new 10 lane multi-purpose bridge....I never applied for the challenge I was requested and enticed, but they were also in the running with 4 others who wanted my services, the deciding factor in the end was not the money as one was willing to pay 29% more, but the freedom to make the changes as needed as the progression went forward, which in return makes me successful and has built the reputation that I hold.
So I am not sure what your point is, nor do I understand why you seem to be under the impression that you are bored since you have really not even done very much to affect change in the position that you presently hold. If you are looking to cut through the red tape their is always a leader who leads amongst the leaders, you need only develop a flexible strategic plan of operation as to how you are going to initiate the changes that are needed, show in detail with facts why they must be adopted, what the risks are associated with the changes, how those risk can be managed and mitigated in order to have the change fully realized, what value in terms of efficiency, productivity and how the bottom line GP is going to be positivity affected by the adopted changes. Its not hard to do, the status quo excuse of "this is how things have always been" holds no weight against factual reality.
When leaders are shown in detail the rewarding effects of the changes needed they have absolutely no hesitation in adopting them because at the end of the day, every single business runs and is valued by its GP. I believe that you are an individual who likes to talk about what should or could be done and base it on your superior intellect while at the same time you either do not actually have any real valid effectual creative changes that are even worth while fielding, or you have fielded some of them only to have them disprove as ineffectual, or you do not have the ambition nor the determination to do what must be done to make your endeavor successful.
Most employees hate change, they fight against it because it affects them, if you have a better way then its up to you to make it happen otherwise you are just an average employee who has an IQ that is irrelevant.
Damn byotch dat aint no friggn moon fool, dat be a friggn space station byotch.
"If you can't write well, you can't think well. If you can't think well, other people will do your thinking for you."
-George Orwell
Learn to write more proficiently and I will be more inclined to believe this talk of an IQ of 163...until then it just sounds to me like you are displaying savant type behaviors consistent with someone who has Aspergers (this from someone who has spent the last 6 years working exclusively with individuals on the AS)
I don't mean this to be terribly insulting...I'm just a little annoyed by someone who is purporting incredible intellect (IQ in the range of less than one in a million people) but displays numerous grammatical errors in a simple forum post.
Your argument is like a two legged dog with an eating disorder...weak and unbalanced.
The most intelligent people on the planet don't brag about it on an internet forum, or seek confirmation from elitist societies like Mensa. They get shit done.
Do you really want to prove that you are the smartest guy in the world? Win a Fields Medal, solve all of Hilbert's problems, or nobody else really cares.
So you absorb information like a sponge. You are an efficient sponge as you pick up most of what you have wiped.
But that is all your are; you are a sponge set about to absorb whatever information you can. And this sponge only gets bigger because it can never release more than it absorbs. You are a big fat sponge, complacent with your sponge-like quality, bloated with a sense of accomplishment that may very well be misplaced. You can keep absorbing, but are you weary that what you absorb may be false? Are you aware your entire life as a sponge could be compromised by your predisposition? If you realize this, then the sense of accomplishment is not misplaced. You realized you accomplished nothing, even though nothing is something. You realized that the only thing you can know for sure, is that you don't know anything.
Where does this take you? If you don't know anything for certain, does that mean you have to keep absorbing? No. When are you going to dispense what you have absorbed? You had/have some jobs that required you to use some of what you absorbed, but, what you absorbed never really went away; and you only absorbed even more with your job experience.
You are bored? Happiness comes from within, and you may never find it externally. I'm not saying you can't find happiness externally, but I am saying most of it is subjective inclination. Sadist find happiness in pain, for example, because it is that preference from within which is the ultimate source for their enjoying that stimulus. If you are bored, then you have time to be bored. Use that time more wisely to understand your preferences through the experimentation of the external. There will be places restricted from experimentation (such as the policies of someone else's company), but there are many other places to experiment.
Do. Act. Experiment. Find the happiness within. Stop wiping and absorbing, start wringing and releasing. You are bored because you only absorb and never create. If you are bored with everything of something (e.g. books, movies, games, computer programs, websites, etc.), then make your own of that something. You wrote the OP because you were bored.
I wouldn't be able to read that many books without channelling the information they teach me into some form of action; or, at least, deeper contemplation of the subject matter would prevent me from speed reading through so many publications. I could have all the world's resources in front of me and fail to do anything with them without a sense of creativity. When you truly understand something, you can express that understanding by adding more information to that something than what you have been given.
P.S. (A reply to Dreanor) George Orwell's passion for clarity with language is awesome. I love his Nineteen Eighty-Four. "The Principles of Newspeak" are hilarious (they are in the the appendix). The Sapir-Whorf hypothesis claims that the structure of the language you use greatly influences the way you think and they way you conceptualize your worldview. Well, the totalitarian government in Nineteen Eighty-Four reduces the amounts of words in the English language in order to prevent critical thinking within the masses. For example, they randomly remove words that are opposites, such as the act of removing the word bad and using ungood in its place.
And, to dumb down what I said to laymen's terms, I will summarize what I have concluded about you. You do have an increased awareness, but you are inexperienced at actually expressing what you know. This is obvious from your title: the possessive form of the pronoun "it" is actually "its," and it's not "it's" -- with an apostrophe. I am sorry for being a grammar nazi, but that is the implication I have perceived (as well as others), due to the form of your composition. I could easily make that mistake if I wasn't paying attention, but someone with 160+ IQ should never make that mistake.
That's what I was waiting for.
Got a Game Idea? Look Here!
So you want the authority to change things, or be part of the think tank?
One excellent way to make people listen to you is to stop pretending you have superior intelligence, or don't mention it, people generally hate it and want to prove you wrong.
You need to become better at your persuasive skills, become more charismatic, get to know how other people think, grow your intuition, be a go-getter, basically...get some leadership abilities. Honestly, this is a prime example of how high IQ doesn't correlate to success or even being truly smarter, it just correlates to taking a test better than everyone else.
Getting a high IQ score doesn't mean you should be a better writer like several posters believe. However, they also prove a point, if people think you're dumb (can't write well), then it doesn't matter how smart you really are because they just won't take you too seriously.

I don't believe it, solely for the fact you said "people who know me believe i, too."
LOL...
Way to impress us! I'm sure the majority here will get a big laugh out of this.
If being a developer means being quiet, mature, well-spoken, and disconnected from the community, then by all means do me a favor and believe I'm not one.
Believe me when I say there are millions of people more intelligent than you, including those less intelligent than you.
Intelligence isn't actually a real "thing" to be summed up in a single definition or categorization.
There are hundreds, possibly thousands of forms of intelligence, all of which you are certainly NOT gifted at. If there is anything learning crystallized intelligence has taught me is this...
1) Intelligence (Ability to Learn Quickly) != Intelligent
2) Knowledge (Known Information) != Intelligence
3) Wisdom (Applying Knowledge) != Intelligence
4) Crystallized Intelligence != Fluid Intelligence
5) IQ Tests = Biased = No one actually takes them but instead claim to have taken them but only took www.Einstein.org's 5 question IQ test.
6) Emotional Intelligence != Intelligence
7) When it comes to Grouping... Social Skills > Intelligence...Social Skills != Intelligence
8) Intelligence != Intelligence
9) Close Mindedness = Stupidity
10) Arrogance = Blindness = Stupidity != Intelligence
Claiming you are the smartest person you know proves only ONE of TWO things
#1: You don't know very many people, which means your social skills suck... Most likely because of #2...
#2: You are so arrogant, you do not see any intelligence in others, which means you are blinded by arrogance and thus ignorant (which equates to You != Intelligent)
I am certainly intelligent, but I'd be the LAST person to say "I am the smartest person I know!" as I am certainly NOT. However, I might possibly be the most well-rounded in a variety of intelligences (meaning I'm Emotionally intelligent as much as I am mentally intelligent or learned) as I often find so called "intelligent" people are not very emotionally intelligent. I am also quite artistic (although certainly NOT an artist! absolutely not even close, as there is a limit to my talent in art, by far) but I don't create ugly art.
So although I am 100% NOT the greatest artist or programming, I am able to be both programmer and artist.
Yet I would never make such a silly statement as "I am the best I know!" or "I am the smartest person...IN THE WORLD!!!!!" or "Only my relative is smarter than me, which proves I know very few people!"
I also wouldn't call anyone here of "Superior Intelligence" as one's intelligence certainly does not make them superior to others, especially since what modern society labels as "intelligence" often has to deal with flukes in some parts of the brain which hinder others (which is more along the lines of a form of mental handicap than a genius brain).
I don't consider "genius" hermits who lack social cognitive ability to be intelligent, I consider them to be mentally handicapped, because they are. (The level of handicap ranging from small & unnoticeable to severe & Rain Man noticeable...lol...)
If being a developer means being quiet, mature, well-spoken, and disconnected from the community, then by all means do me a favor and believe I'm not one.
I also want you to consider this major fact which applies to both professional (business) and unprofessional (personal) reality:
EXPERIENCE ALWAYS TRUMPS INTELLIGENCE!
What is the difference between a mentally handicapped Engineer with 30 years of experience over the most genius, intelligent, rapidly learning 20 year old with 3 years of experience? Everything.
The 30 years of experience trumps your "superior brain" in every way. Your ability to learn quickly is totally irrelevant to crystallized knowledge.
No one will want to hire a genius who knows nothing when they can hire a retard who knows everything. There are studies to prove that average intelligence people with a good amount of experience will ALWAYS out class highly intelligent people with less experience.
Experience is EVERYTHING. Intelligence is certainly not.
It doesn't matter how fast you read, how skilled you can POTENTIALLY be in the future, or what you can or can't do. It's what you know. It's what you've seen. What you've heard. What you've lived.
A stupid, experience doctor will laugh at a genius, young intern when they suggest the "logical" possibility of a broken rib when looking at an x-ray. The stupid, experienced doctor will think the genius "logical" intern is a total moron, and the doctor will be incapable of understanding how the intern reached such a stupid conclusion, even if to the intern it is the most logical step.
Experience ALWAYS trumps Intelligence.
What you know ALWAYS trumps what you CAN know.
This is ESPECIALLY true in the Business world.
Being young and different won't get you very far in a world which needs people capable of doing something TODAY. They don't want your future skills, they want to pay you for your present ones.
If being a developer means being quiet, mature, well-spoken, and disconnected from the community, then by all means do me a favor and believe I'm not one.
Very, very, VERY true. Great post, and +100 Intelligence for you!
I'd like to comment on the very last part. I have been professional in forums before, mature, immature, a troll, or a productive member. (I've been to A LOT of different forums). One thing that I can testify to is that if people think you're dumb, it doesn't matter how smart you really are because they won't take you seriously. You could be the only smart person in a room full of morons who will consider YOU the idiot when you tell them "The bread you are about to eat is POISON!!!!!!!" The result? You, the socially-branded idiot, will be the only person left alive. Unfortunately, to those of us with real intelligence, that is NOT a result we want to see happen. Even if others accuse us of being the stupid ones, we certainly do not want to see them harmed. Only an unintelligent fool would wish death on the ignorant or stupid, as they would be the same as a normal, healthy bully who beats up a mentally handicapped child. I do not consider people who bully mentally disabled children to be intelligent, no matter what their IQ scores show.
If I am professional on a forum and carry myself in a mature way, people listen very closely and clap after my posts. However, I find that lifeless and absolutely fake. The idea of "The more you talk, the more people will discover you're not as smart as they thought." while entirely true, is also entirely fake and disgusts me. I want people to know others for who they truly are, so that they may eventually understand that stupidity in one instance doesn't mean lack of intelligence, but most likely is a matter of miscommunication or the inability for people to comprehend what they read on forums (or laziness, as many people dont even read).
I certainly won't take anyone serious if they are unable to spell correctly, but that doesn't mean I will label them as stupid or smart. Any intelligent person will know that the scope of one's mind isn't limited by their ability to spell correctly. I know airplane mechanics who can't even write a single paragraph correctly, let alone spell even small words accurately. Yet they are capable of complex mechanics which require precision-- a capacity for a job most people couldn't take even if they tried.
However, most people aren't intelligent enough to realize that assumptions are idiotic. In fact, most people make very rash assumptions about others without any evidence pointing at it. Why? They were told by other idiots "If they can't spell, they can't think!" and people are not just unintelligent, they are also sheep who follow whatever every other sheep barks.
Even so, there is nothing more disgusting than arrogant people who openly claim to be better than others. I often get trolling in private messages saying they are disgusted at my arrogance or attitude in my posts, and I've even brought out lurkers on some forums to troll me because what I said was "so arrogant" it forced them, a usually silent member of the forums, to speak out. Yet I never openly said I am better, but others saw tone which did not exist and someone with knowledge as someone with arrogance. So I posted my experience and opinion, and others assumed I thought I was better than others because of it. Strange indeed...but once again the assumptions which come from unintelligent people, so that didn't bother me.
Yet if I were to ever make a claim "I am better than you." or "I have a superior brain." then I would certainly be bothered. There is quite a big difference between unintelligent fools claiming you are arrogant, and you actually openly stating "I am arrogant!!!!" not in that sentence, but in saying "I am the smartest person I know." or "I have superior intelligence."
I'd agree with others who say "Everyone is so stupid..." or "Everyone is so unintelligent and inferior..." but I would certainly have something to say if that same person said "I am more intelligent than everyone." or "Everyone is so beneath me and I am superior to everyone here."
If being a developer means being quiet, mature, well-spoken, and disconnected from the community, then by all means do me a favor and believe I'm not one.
I think you are in for some big surprises. Although you will be around people of similar education (which will make a big difference, as you won't find a ghetto street trash-talking teenager who speaks solely in ebotics despite the fact they're albino white, beside you at work) but you will certainly not be around people at or above your intelligence level. You will also be around people far, far below it.
Obtaining your PH.D isn't a matter of education, but of comittment and finishing school work. Grades are not a measure of intelligence or ability, but of fulfilling basic standards which are desired by academic "professionals" who give you your degree or license.
I have talked with many people in higher education and the level of intelligence of people obtaining their Masters or Doctorates does not magically exclude people who have absolutely no idea what they are doing and who certainly should not be gifted the priviledge or title upon graduation.
Education in western society is not about education, it is about memorization, paperwork, and specificailly defined requirements which have more to do with an "academic standard" (which has nothing to do with education, outside of educating people on those SPECIFIC academic standards relative to that specific university) than it has to do with actual learning, proficiency of skill, etc.
Ph.D != Intelligent People
Also, I don't know what Doctorate Degree you are talking about, but you are certainly NOT paid to "think" as opposed to work. Medical Doctors are paid to work, and work a lot. Psychologists are paid to work, and many often start up their own practice.
Often a Doctorate opens doors for you (and often doors which can let you be your own boss, or have more authority than others) but not necessarily. It also doesn't mean you exclusively get to sit on your butt being paid to think. (As if thinking is not hard work in some fields either?) You don't just sit around thinking while others do your experiments.
If being a developer means being quiet, mature, well-spoken, and disconnected from the community, then by all means do me a favor and believe I'm not one.
This is coming from someone with Experience in a science PhD program?
Where did you go to school and where did you graduate?
If you do not have firsthand experience in a PhD program, there is absolutely 0 reasons you could state that "there would most certainly be some of the brighets people you've ever met" because you actually don't know that to be true, not at all. You can't just assume it. And honestly, it sounds like you are just cutting apart what a Ph.D. is by separating it into two groups (Arts & Sciences) which not only is lazy defense (just admit you know nothing and you were wrong) but it shows you know nothing about either.
If you were in a Ph.D program dealing with the Arts, you would also see "most certainly" some of the brightest people you've ever met. (Although that is entirely relative to who you know, so that is rather silly to say in the first place).
I guarantee you that any degree, whether it is through the Arts or Sciences, will have both "brilliant" and "retarded" people. Sciences & Mathematics don't magically make people more intelligent, nor will it make them "the brightest people you've ever met" as both of those variables are entirely independent on circumstance and opinion. One's definition of what a "bright person" may include social skills, which someone with a light case of autism certainly might fail at, while another's version of what a "bright person" is may be exclusively scientific or mathematic, ignoring other (or what I call "real") intelligences. Who someone knows is entirely relative to the situation. You may also not "know" that these people you "know" are actually not as smart as they appear to be. Especially if you don't "know" them as well as you think you do.
Honestly, being good with numbers doesn't make you a genius. We have calculators that are better at it, and programs that are faster.
If being a developer means being quiet, mature, well-spoken, and disconnected from the community, then by all means do me a favor and believe I'm not one.
sounds like someone is on their period.
People who have to create conspiracy and hate threads to further a cause lacks in intellectual comprehension of diversity.
I've taken formal IQ tests and I can tell you they are full of themselves. These testes were conjured up by an organization during a time all development and intelligence was pure conjecture upon the human brain. Rating intelligence by a number is the most idiotic thing ever....specially since most of these tests are taken during high school or after college....which is by far the worse time to take those tests...after undergoing total development....
There is a brain wave test that measures brain growth and development with a direct connection to your brain and it happens within the hospital and delivers a better result. The analysis comes from physicians and scientists who actually have real hands on training and education and can tell you how you will develop and grow and help you. Remember that a number is meaningless if what is quantified can't be questioned. IQ doesn't quantify anything formally or directly. Thus is like saying "The sky is blue because it seems blue" when the sky isn't blue and has its color due to prisms, so we know the skies are clear and not a solid color.
What matters is knowing someone with "intelligence" was born and thus, the most important time comes during your first 20 - 30 years of your life with education. I was one of those "people" who was born with "intelligence" and fell out of the public education system and was even feared for my abilities too. I had to go through a different form of education and many teachers could not help me..
Eventually I met a woman who was both, Psychopathic and Amoralist who managed to get me under control. She told me that those with high intelligence are few and unique. They tend to see beyond society as social conventions exist for the average but have a tendency to suck in everyone else. I learned its a double-edged sword because it also means you aren't "Average" and "Normal" which while its nice to be different and unique, it means you have to find someone who is also different and unique and has been down a similar road to actually help you get your abilities under control. I got lucky but still sometimes I wish I hadn't learned so much.
I couldn't function well in a basic classroom, though I went through academia and all the sort, but on my own with the one who helped me taught me how to learn well. How many Amoralist/Psychopaths do you know who have a degree in Education and a Degree in Psychology who are into doing crazy things. She likes to talk to "Crazy" people to see if she can find people on her level (her joke, not mine.)
Can a person "kick my ass?" as so many put it...Sure, in their right mind, but learning amoralist and psychopathic tendencies truly helped me at problem solving in many ways...and helped me with my own education. Of course brute force is ugly. Being able to "Smile cheerfully" at one person and look cute and all....just to walk by, quickly turn someones head through a wall...look at the body looking for a reaction and saying "oh my "you're no fun....."" I guess being weird is what counts.
My best friend and I pass "hits" to each other as a way of "talking" one another. There is the "Cute hit" which tells me I did something right and the heavy hit which tells me I did something wrong...Of course we haven't killed each other yet.
Of course I'm told I would go through human judgment and I said laughing "Human Judgement? Don't you mean Conventionalist Judgement from those holier than thou? In short, all of them adults out there who still are into reading fairy tales, calling it religion and wish me hanged because I have no care for such fairy tales? I can laugh at some cruxifix, but don't get me near one...I would hang myself upside down for a few hours (of course without the nails) just to see how it feels like...and wonder how I would scratch an itch or cast a larger shadow or look at the sun and wonder why people fear eclipses.
You have intelligence, now have some fun.
Remember, dumb people make more mistakes as a collective while smarter people make bigger and larger mistakes.
The person who posted asking "Can you kick my ass" has something interesting going...Oh goodie! Getting our ass kicked...Sounds like fun. We can place bets if we will land upside down or actually toss that guy and wonder how cool the scene would look afterwards. Granted we will have a little pain but when we nearly pass out, hey you can pass the drinks my way and help night fall sooner....
Don't become a rocket queen..Oh wait you're a dude right?
A little creative fun never hurts anyone. Thats what "A poor mans james bond" is for..Yeah, they weren't full of shit when they said you can follow the instructions to turn a steel pipe into a semi-automatic, now that was cool! ^^
Yeah, sure...I can have morals when I want to...But I prefer at seeing reaction and action. I just love being within life and not being a consequence before or after.
Lets just say I've already changed things for the better for many....:) Lets just say I enjoy working through the low road and high road..they both have merits..The middle road is just plain boring.
Do not neglect to notice this mans username.

Anyone else find it quite hilarious how half the posters in this thread refer to themselves as highly intelligent?
reminds me of:
Alt-Text: The typical internet user (who wants to share) has an IQ of 147 and a 9-inch penis. Well, better than the reverse, I guess.
You're a bit above the average Internet User. I reckon there's still at least 10% of all internet users or so that are smarter then you are. So hardly superior intellect. More like well above average intellect.
However if you also happen to have a 12-inch penis, a G-cup and drink over 15 glasses of water every day you might still be an exceptional internet user though. Not sure if there's a thinking tank for exceptional internet users though.
Now after this brief ( hopefully ) comedic interlude back to more serious posters of superior intellect either symphatising with your situation or debunking you as "smartest" poster.
We are the bunny.
Resistance is futile.
