i used to be like this 5 years ago then i gave up and realized we are all a pathetic mediocrity

smart but lazy, go live in the wilderness for 3 months without human contact

These pics are always so accurate, I am convinced that there are only two people living in the world at this point and if we ever met we would be the best bros

Join the Army

I've been thinking about both those things.

you may have to accept that you were never actually that smart. this sounds bleak, but it's actually liberating. self-knowledge is a greater reward than anything else. it puts you on the path to discovering what you're really fit for.

based

This didn't exactly work. I never thought I was smart, but I haven't really found what I'm fit for. Just some things that I wouldn't mind doing.

oh gotcha

Exactly this

If you think you were gifted because you easily got good grades then you should hang yourself or accept your place among the other slaves. I was lauded as a genius by all of my peers, teachers, and family while literally failing or barely passing every single class because I never showed up or never did any of the work because it was below me. I would do the same for the advanced classes I was bumped up to just to shit on the medicore needs I was surrounded by. A few of my teachers begged the principal to allow me to graduate because of how disturbing it would be for someone at my level to be held back. I never needed external good boy points to prove my worth. You only successfully passed the wagie test and think you are gifted lmao

No, I had terrible grades. Mostly slept during class due to insomnia and never found the classes interesting enough to ever learn for them. I always had terrible grades past primary school. Even when I knew more than the rest of the class about the topic of a test, I would somehow get worse scores than most.
Still passed though.
I don't think anyone actually intelligent needs to have his intelligence validated by grades.

*get a worse

You're exactly the same as every "gifted" kid ever. It was the same with me.

it's called demoralization
damned if you try damned if you don't

goal i think is to find a goal then keep burning through it all and keep failing
whilst telling anyone with an opinion to go fuck themselves

you were told you were good so you never had any incentive to try

Nope, I've seen this inane image multiple times through the years and it's always kids who easily got good grades until they went to university and found out they "actually had to study" because they are now average in that student population. I still never studied in university and was top of my class before I dropped out getting my masters because I needed connections to move further and I made many enemies and was generally unliked by professors. "Smart but lazy" they were never smart and they were never actually lazy, these insects would fix their output based on what's currently needed for good grades, university demanded more

make sure you meditate in a cave with running water for at least one month out of three or it doesn't count

No, but thanks anyway.

>I'm not like those other "gifted" kids! I'm the outlier!
Yes this is also completely normal.

>you were told you were good so you never had any incentive to try
Another mediocre projecting their slave mind. Nope I never "tried" because it was a boring waste of time and had better things to do. I was told I was good because I was good and I never needed to try because I was good and shit was easy. I also had zero respect for the school system and submitting myself to it's measurements was pathetic

The items on this board point to the malaise of a Godless society. Work and even hobbies are considered pointless because in a purely material world without God they are indeed pointless. Pleasure seeking, risk taking, and drug and alcohol usage are pursued instead, but anyone with modicum of insight realizes these pursuits are vacuous. Psychology and psychiatric diagnoses are considered fascinating because we have lost the simple knowledge that all humans are broken and flawed beings from the start. There are issues with arrogance—never recognized as such, but instead cloaked in irony and false humility: “It’s not that I can’t do it, it’s just that I’m not motivated.” When all else fails, and if a careful combing of the DSM fails to produce a suitable diagnosis, it is the fault of “society”/government/education. In this last point, there is some wisdom, because the world has utterly forgotten God.

The pill you need is the bread pill. Specifically, you need to realize your utter smallness and insignificance before the grandeur of God. When you find yourself thinking, “The ‘average’ joe isn’t ‘gifted’ like me,” think of an amoeba arrogantly comparing itself to a bacterium, and then imagine a human or an elephant or a blue whale passing the foolish amoeba. The powers of your frail humanity have a source far higher than yourself. Finally, recall the parable of the talents. Put simply a master gave one of his slaves a bunch of money and another a small amount. The one with a large amount wisely invested it and doubled it. The other fearfully buried it.

Thus the way out of your present quagmire is twofold:
1. Realize your gifts are indeed gifts—from God—and be thankful for that. Realize that you have nothing to do with whatever goodness you possess. You are a lucky slave who happened to be given more.
2. Realize that you must do something worthwhile with your gifts or you are spitting on them, and by spitting on them you are spitting on the Giver.

No, I repeat, it's not. Kids with bad grades nowdays are literal retards because of the immense pressure to perform for everyone else. Doing what I did would result in getting sent to a facility and filled with pills until they comply. The "gifted kid" stereotype is extremely common and none of it is defined by terrible grades

>risk taking
t. risk averse faggot

Read more good religious and mystical works. Believing in God takes study like anything else IF you have too much doubt to simply accept it, which is the case for most people nowadays. Consider that you probably accept all of the standard scientific dogma about the atom or quasars or protein structures or the Earth’s core despite it being nearly impossible for you to develop sufficient expertise in all of these subjects to completely verify them for yourself. You instead accept the word of the scientists on faith. In the case of God, because we live in a world dominated by materialist views, you find it hard to accept the teachings about God on faith. Thus the only path is through study and experience: reading scriptures, theology, and spiritual-mystical writings, praying, meditating, contemplating sacred images.

It really depends on what is meant by risk taking. There are “safe” “risky” activities that stimulate the nerves and assuage some men’s fear of being perceived as womanly without putting you in grave danger, and there is nothing wrong with these because they don’t disrespect the gift of life you have been given or the material gifts you have. Examples: boxing in a gym with proper training, sky diving after being trained, motorcycling at a high speed down a country highway with few drivers, making a friendly wager with a moderate amount of money, smoking a cigar on a special occasion. Bad risks are obviously different, such as: getting into street fights for the hell of it. cliff jumping while drunk into a spot that you have not checked for rocks or proper water depth, weaving through dense traffic at high speed on your motorcycle, spending 80% of your check every week at the nearest casino, smoking a pack a day.

what kind of pathetic narcissist would make something like this bingo?
@angstyfairy is a complete moron -
everyone who sees this picture 'thinks' they are a gifted kid who has burnt out. It's not true.

1) 'gifted' in what sense? in high school? that's a very small pond and meaningless. I can guarantee that most people are about average in terms of potential/grades/intelligence. All these things are normally distributed - the overwhelming majority of people fall close to the center of a bell curve.

2) 'burned out'?? life fucks everyone. Life is hard for everyone

You have to never, never feel sorry for yourself. As soon as you get that urge, bury it in the ground. OP, I know you can read and write, you're probably able-bodied. You're a smart, capable person - I know this because you're a human being. You can build things.

1) Get a job. Start saving money. Save as much money as you can. Once you are financially independent, you are no longer leeching on someone else. You are forced to grow up and take responsibility for things. It feels great. Work as much as you can, doing whatever work you can get, as hard as you. Don't complain about shit at work - don't phone it in because you're underpayed - take pride in your work. Be happy that you are physically and mentally strong enough that you can do productive, valuable work. So many people cannot.

2) work on your mind: don't take any drugs/alcohol. Pass your degree. If you're in high school/haven't decided what you want to do yet, pick a degree that will give you tangible, useful skills that people will actually pay you for: engineering, comp sci, actuarial studies, medicine if you're guaranteed an internship afterwards. Don't do unfulfilling meme shit like media and communications, law, industrial design... etc. If you don't have any hobbies other than browsing the internet, find something you would like to learn - I recommend programming. Pick a language - everything you need to know is online, and once you know the basics you can start solving algorithm challenges - these are really fun. You get a big rush when something you've written works.

3) work on your body: start lifting weights. Aim for 4 hours a week if you can. You will feel better and look better. Eat healthier food.

4) Get a girlfriend: if you can. If this is too hard right now, keep working on those other two parts of your life. Girls can detect the moment you have any ounce of success/ competency. You may think this is bullshit - but i am not bullshitting you. I'm not even talking partner at a law firm successful - I'm talking like, you managed to get a job at IKEA successful. There are so, so few guys who are actually competent, driven and successful for girls to chose from.

That most people think their life is a movie and they're a tortured artist and actually they're brilliant but they're undercut by their tragic flaws.
It's so fucking boring and downright pernicious. This attitude will ruin your life. You will meet BPD types who will try to convince you to act like OP's picture and it will destroy you.
You cannot feel sorry for yourself. You have to shun and ignore these people. It's not even advice. I have to communicate this in this thread. No one else other than me has posted positive shit.

>Plenty of successfull people smoke marijuana and have no issues
so? you're still taking chemicals to make yourself feel better. It is affecting the reward pathway of your brain, the only brain you will ever get. It will not make you happy in the long wrong.
Just because it's not as bad as heroin doesn't mean it's a good idea to smoke every day. You shouldn't be eating junk food either, or alcohol or etc etc

are you 15 years old?? Low IQ is not the same as working class. Why do you think that? Have you ever worked a job before??

I wonder if the massive decline of manual labor contributed to all this "I'm so depressed omg" garbage.

grug very smart. why grug no have anything show? because grug lazy. if grug try put even littel effort grug genius. one time grug take skull rock test on rockbook and he get three number. grug is genuis but grug think too smart to try. brb. grug need to indulge in his favorite vices: grugnography and grugchan

I said you shouldn't drink alcohol either

You especially shouldn't smoke weed if it's illegal where you live and you could go to jail for it. If you care about that shit

Don't chase chemical highs

The fag I responded to marked off drinking on the bingo, if you aren't him then what I said doesn't matter.

You take things too seriously

you don't understand. I can't imagine you're older than 18/have ever had a part time job. Guys working trades are doing so for a tonne of different reasons - a lot of them have brains. Everyone who wants to go to university, can go to university (in Australia, Europe and Canada at least). There's no real barrier to entry, you can do any meme shit you want and get a degree.
It's not even inherently a bad idea, or a 'dumber' idea not to go to college. Plumbers and doctors earn the same amount over their careers. Brickies and construction workers aren't 'lower IQ', they just didn't have the same education opportunities and family environments as people at uni/working in HR departments or as bank tellers. Dude there are so many fucking dumbasses at uni.

I'm not the original guy, and I haven't had alcohol in almost 2 years
I've met people who smoke weed every day, who smoke it to get to sleep, who have gotten in trouble with the law because of it. I don't think it's this inherently cool awesome black-and-white thing that Joe Rogan thinks it is.

bro if you seriously think the average plumber has a high IQ you're kidding yourself
my whole point is it doesn't matter at all for someone like me who wastes it
my IQ does me absolutely no good it's not an untapped well of potential
a high IQ lazy asshole is obviously worse than anyone who works hard

Don't join the army, if you're intelligent as you say you are you'll end up worse

Accepting that I’m not smart means accepting that we’re a retard race because I’m definitely top 1%

>Fighting in imperialist proxy wars for your Israeli masters

Based and wholeheartedly agree. About to leave for early service

what do you think IQ is?? Do you think we all have some perfectly quantifiable intelligence force running through our brains that's completely measured by one test?
I think the average plumber would have around an average IQ, just like most people have close to an average IQ, because IQ is normally distributed.
It doesn't mean as much as you think it means, unless you are trying to quantify intellectual disability or are talking about physics professors.
Your "I have a high IQ" schtick is a bullshit cope. How do you know you have a high IQ? You're not as smart as you think you are, and you're pretentious and you look down on people you don't even know

>I'm so smart everyone else is dumb
fuck this board dude. I would love to have this blind confidence. You are not as smart as you think you are.

Yeah I work as an electrician on construction sites in summer and go to uni during the rest of the year, and I can tell you that a lot of construction workers are nowhere near smart enough to handle any education above high school (if that). I agree with the other guy that this does not say anything about their value though. Why are you so keen on proving that they're just as smart, while clearly their worth is not dependent on their intelligence?

I'm not going to debate the merits of IQ testing because I am only using it as a shorthand for whatever kind of intelligence you want to use
it does not matter which one you use the point is exactly the same
I am not looking down on anyone I am writing on an internet forum saying they are superior human beings to me
I know I have a high IQ because the government gave me every test in the book when I told them I would rather kill myself than go back to work or school
it is not an untapped well of potential it is a useless number
I am not naturally superior to people who obviously achieve more than me

Why's that? Seems like an easier way to live

it bothers me that this guy thinks he has a high IQ and therefore could be a university professor or a lawyer or a doctor or something, *if only he tried*, but construction workers are the unwashed masses who are incapable of uni.
I've worked manual, unskilled labor before. None of the people I worked with "weren't smart enough to handle education" - they were migrants, or they had families they had to feed, or they just came from families with different values. Plus a lot of people were at uni anyway, like you are.
THAT'S what I'm trying to prove. You guys are gatekeeping... why? My dumb ass ex gf who got an ATAR of 75 still got into a course at USyd. As long as you're not intellectually disabled, you will be able to pass a university course. Not a maths based one, if you don't like maths, but you would be able to if you had had tutoring all throughout school and studied like I did.

This thread has made me realize I'm too old for this place.

do you know what normally distributed even means, fuckass?

The level of delusion in this thread. Guess what? If you were actually smart, you would get top grades even without studying or caring. Saying you got terrible grades because you didn't give a shit even though you were a genius is an excuse, you were just avoiding failure.

I don't think I'm smart dude. I'm just a grown up. You'll understand in a few years. Enjoy high school.

I could never be a university professor or even a university janitor
the level of motivational disability I have is as bad as what someone with downs syndrome has in intellectual disability
janitors and plumbers have a much better chance of making it as a physicist than I do
my whole point is that intelligence is not a reserve of untapped potential if you have no ability to act on it
I am agreeing with you and you are too stubborn to realize it

>As long as you're not intellectually disabled, you will be able to pass a university course.
This is completely false, at least where I live. It's not gatekeeping to say that intelligence is not the most important thing. I am more intelligent than most of my coworkers at any given construction site. Does this make me a better or more valuable person? Of course not. Would you say they were gatekeeping if they said I'm physically weaker than them? If the answer is no, which judging from your earlier posts I expect it to be, then maybe you're putting intelligence on a pedestal.

Nope, I love being smart, I'm a happy person. And once again you're just another slave who's only sense of accomplishment comes from academic success. I swear the repetition of these retards is making me think this might be some kind of parody I'm not understanding. And besides any of that, there is literally nothing in the definition of intelligence that correlates with "accomplishments" I bet the smartest people in the world did absolutely nothing with their lives. For me, there was no use of school in my pursuit so I ignored it, something your types cannot fathom because of your extreme need for easy validation and safe paths. My "accomplishments" were tracked by goals I set for myself, not assigned. I've noticed in the last few years there has been this big pushback in the form of shaming to anybody who admits themselves to be anything but dumb or average, largely emerging from r*ddit, the forefront of pathological egalitarianism

Scotland, I'm aware of the similarities

Kill yourself

not sure if bait or complete delusion

Nope, sorry faggot, not my problem that you're such a weak insect so deep in the hole that anything that disagrees with your mindset is delusion. Once again, literally proving your brain cannot fathom what I'm saying about schooling because your idea of it so deeply rooted denouncing it is treated as heresy. Imagine being so shallow your good boy points is deterministic on the infinite possibilities life has to offer. To you, abiding by it's measurements is mandatory. And explain to me with no memes and half baked replies the correlation of saying you're intelligent and not being intelligent? It's a recent hugbox produced sentiment that does not exist

You have to realize that "gifted" is an arbitrary label the US public school system gives to elementary school kids if they can pass a certain test. There's no connection between passing that test as a kid and your intelligence or ability as an adult. In my experience, "gifted kids" receive so much unconditional praise growing up that they take whatever abilities they have for granted and "burn out" when they're too old to coast through life/school anymore.
I don't know if that's what happened to you, but I urge you to abandon any labels they put on you as a kid and just focus on the present. Whatever your teachers or parents said to you ~20 years ago doesn't matter anymore. The educational system that separates "gifted kids" from the rest doesn't exist for your benefit, and the sooner you can disentangle yourself from it the better.

Its military funded and a fast track into college credit classes for STEM in high school graduating into ROTC for officers and pilots.

A high percentage of people dropped out in because the program was literally just extra homework for smart kids and they ended up coming together on Yea Forums, IRC, etc

Do you realize that half those squares are meant to be relatable. Imagine being so pretentious you call yourself gifted on an image board full of autists.

Used to be a lot like this. It's important to realize that you aren't really "gifted," at least i my experience. Ascribing yourself labels like "gifted" or "intelligent" stifle a will to learn, which is the only area real intellect can manifest or matter. is a boomer shill, but he isn't wrong about everything. You are smart, and capable, and you need to stop acting like Willie Loman and puffing yourself up with this imagined self image. Do something you love. It doesn't matter if it is useful just do it. Get a philosophy degree. Study psych, or literature. Go into theater. Get a PhD. Go get a job. You like coding? Do that. Don't fall for the STEM meme if it doesn't interest you. Don't be a pretentious liberal art student if it doesn't suit you. You can't do anything you want, but you can recognize your passions and strengths and try. Self-reflection, and the will to act on that realization is the key to happiness.

I believe you in, bros. Good luck.

Look, everyone gets good and bad attributes. Smart and lazy is a common one. So, I can naturally breeze though intellectual endeavors, I can meander through school getting 70% without really trying, but I have lots of drawbacks too.

It's like you video game character creator. Don't try to change yourself, learn to play to your strengths. So, you're lazy. But you're smart too, so find a way to work around it. I dropped out of university because it was all pointless. Antigone was a good book and all and I liked reading it, but paying 2000 dollars a semester to read old books when they were supposed to be teaching me to be a social worker wasn't cutting it for me.

So I've been lazily acquiring credentials ever since. Now, I'm actually a trades teacher myself and I didn't need a darn degree to do it.

English isn't even a meme degree if you're from a non-English speaking country because you can either become a translator or an English teacher. You'd be surprised how many people still struggle with English outside of historically Anglo-saxon territories.

Me too. Except I don’t smoke weed because the “existential anxiety” gets amped up too high and it’s missing an “incredibly handsome” square.

I will always be grateful for my ability to learn and overcome obstacles unlike you borderline retards on here.

I agree with this. I have a huge problem with caring what other people think or considering that they have anything of merit to say so it's hard to kiss ass to teachers or bosses. It's especially frustrating when your teacher or boss is stupid. The entire education system is just to prove how much dick you can suck and how hard. Education is just jumping through hoops to prove to employers that you're a good little worker cuck who will gladly rim them just as well as you had your teachers. All the diploma is for is so employers know you're good at being told what to do.

>I'm magna cum laude I smoke pole as hard as I can regardless of the learning material being worthless

God bless you user! Thanks for reminding me to keep focused on my "great work". Don't use your talents for personal glory, if you pay God will reveal how you're to use them. Sometimes, if you can handle it, game and fortune will come, sometimes you will simply inspire others on a micro scale.

Fuck..

yea nice you gave up on your ambitions and grew to accept your shitty life as is, good thing you got over that "gifted kid phase"

Tbh this. I’m now out on the GI Bill and pulling in top tier internships with a 4.0. I really did just need 3 1/2 years of dumb shit to stop being a retard.

Sigh.

IQ is not a natural theory, it is a correlative subscription model. You're as dumb as the people who say ''psychology bad cuz no reproductibility'' or ''personality testing is pseudoscience''. Actually, I think you're the kind of person who says these things.

Not believing in God is a faith too, keep it in mind.

It's so conflicting to me. Why was I able to score 99th percentile on all my standarized tests, but I feel like a retard when it comes to even looking at a person.

This is more like smart + well off parents. Teaches you to be a lazy fag because you dont have to work for anything. If you're so smart figure out how to discipline yourself so you aren't wasting your gifts

Maybe the metric is inaccurate but to deny the concept of intelligence is retarded

I tried to join but they rejected me :^(
Not american btw, our army isn't big enough that they will always hire new recruits

*innate intelligence

disappointed how nondescript most of the squares are

That's because being in the top 1% means nothing bro
Imagine a circle expanding from around you, growing until it encompasses 100 people. See how small that circle is? That's your kingdom

I pretty much have all of it except for drugs/alcohol and risk-taking behavior, I don't think I'm gifted at all, in fact: I'm probably below average in IQ and overall a very slow learner, I always was distracted in school and never got anything more than average grades.

Only 90th percentile IQ though. I think most sad losers and autistis like myself would get bingo on this card. It doesn't have much to do with intelligence.

> "gifted kids" receive so much unconditional praise growing up that they take whatever abilities they have for granted and "burn out" when they're too old to coast through life/school anymore.
THIS

Either that or their parents equate being "gifted" to suddenly being able to become a straight-A student in every class with practically 0 effort (Just don't play games, lol!) despite the fact that school is a fucking hellhole and after being stuck there for 6-8 hours a day I don't want to do anything but play games and enjoy the limited 4-5 hours I have before going having to go back to hell the next day.

OR they could do both like my parents did and spend my entire childhood tearing me away from anything I liked for the sake of "dude grades lmao!" then getting mad when I have no idea what I want to do in life because every job is practically the same crap with a different wrapper, and I don't feel like living on Clark-Bars for the rest of my life.

The worst part is that I don't even feel that smart, I feel average.
So when your entire life is "OMG user YOUR SO SMRT!!!" it just makes you feel like everyone else is an idiot.
>Unless it's any form of Social Interaction
Then I'm pants-on-head retarded

>B-but if you're so smart, you should have just X,Y,Z as a kid!
Yeah, let me just enact my adult willpower/knowledge as the gifted child who has the potential to solve the puzzle, but only given .01% of the pieces.
