"No I never feel stupid for that reason. Sometimes I do or say stupid things, for which I'll admonish myself. I'm absolutely confident that I'm not stupid though, and to adulterate a well known phrase, nobody can make me feel stupid without my permission. If anyone here thinks I'm stupid, I don't give a flying fart. If only I had the same degree of body confidence! | |||

I have particular interest in literature, politics, education but I only know the RIP's relevant to mine or my parents generation, not got a clue on sport or technology or gaming. Music film and theatre are interests too but again my knowledge is ltd to those artists/productions I'm familiar with. Nobody can be an expert on everything (my geography beyond Europe is appalling!) and anyone who claims to be is kidding themselves. | |||

"I find it quite amusing when people try to outdo each other in terms of supposed intelligence. The more they post the longer the words get. You do certainly get the 'battle of the degrees' going on as Evie has mentioned. Those who feel the need to tell all about their achievements, whether real or embellished somewhat, sound rather silly in my opinion. Some people just don't feel the need to state qualifications, job title, salary earned, university attended etc. All of that is rather unnecessary as its blatantly obvious in the way they communicate "Guilty as charged, sorry m'lud...  | |||
