who is the smartest guy here? (1 Viewer)

Would a PHD in Nuclear Physics, a Masters in Quantum Physics, and undergrad in Mathmatical Theory qualify someone?

I don't have any of those just curious.

 
I think we've got plenty of smart people here, in their own way at least. I think we all interpret intelligence a little differently. I for one, value someone who innovates ideas rather than someone who simply mimics the idea of others.

I'll hedge my future on the guy who's willing to think outside the box.
Aw geez, Em. Thanks.

Don't try to be inside the box or outside the box. Remember instead that there is no box - there are only ideas.

Nice try Confucius. Still going with MT.

I think I've already made clear that I don't think I'm the smartest person here.

I know. I just thought I could score a few points with a Confucius reference. :pickle:

 
rabidfireweasel is a darkhorse candidate here.

The guy is a painting professor, a self-sufficient artist, but even he'll admit it's only the second best thing he's good at. His first is poker. And when I mean good, I mean the guy is mind boggling amazing at the game - he used to rake backroom sharks all the time. But that lifestyle isn't conducive to a long life or raising a family, which he realizes, hence painting. This only makes him even smarter in my book.

His posts, while limited to stuff he knows well, are always well thought out and even funny.
Like RFW a lot too. The kid probably had the most valuable flight carry on of any FBG eva.

Why would they? Anyone smart person can collect degrees--what someone does with them (or even more impressively, without them) is what differentiates someone who js truly intelligent.

And some geniuses are artists and have no interest in anything you would require a degree for or some just teach themselves what they want and dont believe in ridgid schooling

 
Pretty sure I'm in the top 10.

In all seriousness, I vote for instinctive. That dude us either the biggest liar on the board or captain America.

 
BFred is not only witty, some of his posts have lent me seriously good life advice when I've needed it. Solid all around dude.

Are you ever going to do something or just tell us why it is impossible.

Im doing the FBG comic.

Isnt that something?

 
Here is a witty yet funny from MT that sticks out to me. I've seen a few comments in here saying his responses lack humor. I called Phillip Rivers average, as a Chargers fan he fired back hard... I really enjoyed this response:

"Average in which population? You surely don't mean the world population, including Nigerian grandmas and Chinese infants. Neither can you mean the population of males aged 21-31 in the United States. Neither can you mean all NFL players, or even all NFL quarterbacks. You probably also don't mean that he's average for an NFL starting quarterback. He's well above average in any of those populations.

Do you mean that he's average for a quarterback selected to the Pro Bowl? I think that's a reasonable position (although I'd say he's slightly above average, myself). "

If you think you have skills, you should be trying to master them. So yeah, it is something. But lots of people with skills never materialize into anything. It is only the few who dedicate themselves to it.

So give me a break. Its a little something for fun that I think everyone will enjoy and maybe ill start enjoying drawing again.

Ive never tried drawing funny stuff before

 
Probably tons of guys here smart as hell but just don't care enough to have high post counts.

I vote for those guys. Nobody here has jumped out to me as highly intelligent. Sure there's lots of posters who can write long, thought out posts with correct grammar and punctuation, but that just means they paid attention in school.

 
Why hasn't Joe Bryant made this list yet? Where's MOP? Doesn't he know about this thread?
You missed MOP's retirement thread? And Haley's comet has made more appearances than Joe lately. Well, except I think he just posted in the soccer thread, but who reads those.

 
Tell me this.....

Would someone you considered "Smart" have 2 Rooms Comped at a Luxury Casino for a Guy's Weekend of 5 Guys, decide on his own to just cancel the 2nd room as if 5 guys in 2 beds would be "just fine"..... A food / beer weekend of Smelly ### Dudes two of which are Navy Boys apparently used to cramped quarters and ### Stinking contests....

WTF are we 20??????

 
Id be happy if now some of the meanies who have said I was the stupidest person here would admit that im not
Oh, you are DEFINITELY not the stupidest person here. No problem with that. Your drawings have gone a long way towards redeeming yourself, fwiw.
I think most people have intelligence in at least one area. You cant measure it in one specific way.Ive known some very boneheaded people who were good at something.

I also dont understand why some people equate intelligence with a persons interests.

If a person was not interested in academics a lot of people might consider them stupid for being clueless about literature, history and math. But maybe that person is a good hockey player, auto mechanic or maybe they just bake great cakes.

In that case you cant say they are completely stupd. A truly stupid person would have to be incompetent about everything.
