i really dont like stupid people. but we all do so i'll skip that part. i was thinking more along the lines of telling people that they're stupid. it's pretty hard. and it makes you angry. all this is summed up by their only response. 'im not stupid!'
it's pretty hard to counter that when you're making your point to the stupid person in question. rather than tell you what they did that day that required any brain power, they just assert that they are 'not stupid'. they dont even have to be book stupid, and when you're in college, it's generally not they case. more often than not, they can be common sense stupid, or linguistically stupid, or socially stupid or whatever. these are hard to prove because you end up trying to reenact a situation or encounter when it really was a 'you had to be there' moment.
and there's more. even if you successfully show the person that they are stupid and you present clear and valid arguments, you still have to get past the defense mechanisms set up by the human brain. it's difficult for someone to believe they're stupid because that would go against instinct. most people know that the only reason that humans survived is because humans are smart. so what happens to a dumb human? it dies. people dont want to consider themselves as potential deadguys. that would be depressing. if the lesson stuck, they would be broken human beings reading dontkillyourself books (if they are literate) and continue shuffling silently through their lives until they die. and then you look at yourself and realize that you just broke somebody and what do you do then, douchebag?
i've decided that convincing people they're stupid doesnt really work. and even if it did, you'd be a douchebag. bumconclusion, but homework awaits.
(hey also, fuck you guys. conclusions are for essays to reiterate your points and bring up new questions to be answered or possible areas of research. did you read the rest of my fucking blog? can you wait until the next time i talk about stupid people to answer any retarded points you might want to bring up? make your own fucking conclusion, you fucking dicks)
