I wish I was smarter

Everything's "smart" nowadays.
Don't get peer-pressured by a toaster.

@localpost Thanks man! Needed to hear this. Feel like shit nowadays.

You can't be dumb because such people are also too dumb to even notice.

I’d be happier if I wasn’t.

@Root fact checked true. I talked to a therapist and he said dumber people are happier in general. That explains so much about people I know. But it is also a risk later in life. Following the crowd can fuck you over when you get to retirement age.

I wish I had more money to spend on stupid stuff like a half billion dollar yacht. I can scarify my intelligence for stupid but expensive things lol

You’re supposed to wish for more wishes

I wish I was less stupid

Don't wish to be smarter. Do something about it ;)

@STETT

You cant learn to be smart, really.

You can only learn stuff, but not learn to be smart

@Linux That is false. You can form new pathways even as an adult. It takes longer, but it can be done. This line of thinking changed in the last couple decades.

@Demolishun I bet it did. The young scientists who came up with that theory became older.

@Linux

I cannot find the term that describes this, but here is an article on growing new neurons:

I know you can alter your brain through learning as well. Note in that article: exercise. I fucking need to do that more!

@Linux Oh, its plasticity. That is the word I could not remember. The theory was once you got to certain age the plasticity was not there. I read part of a book that showed that is not true.

Also, having a brain is overrated apparently:

How the fuck that is possible is beyond me.

I wish I was a little bit taller…

Too much wishing, not enough acting 😁
