You could call it narcissism, a compulsion to brag, or just a lack of self awareness, but some absurd people think they're total geniuses and they absolutely must let everyone know online. Methods include saying you know how the universe works, bragging about being an "early reader" and completely missing the point of a joke. There are a good amount of ridiculous people out there who think they're geniuses.
bragging
Say you're watching a dumb youtube video of a guy throwing a watermelon off of his roof. The comment section is all "lols" and "who's watching this in 2020s" when it happens. Right out of the blue some rando who lives in his mom's basement taps out an essay on why everyone is stupid and anyone who doesn't listen to Chopin while pretending to do quantum physics is a sheep. Now he's downvoting your okay melon puns that he doesn't have the attention to understand. All you can really do is wonder what makes this ridiculous person think they're a genius.
The internet, home of ridiculous people who think they're geniuses. These are people who describe themselves as "too rational" to get a joke, think they understand space travel after thinking about it for 10 minutes, and rate online IQ tests poorly for giving them bad (accurate) scores. They're here to brag about themselves and ruin comments sections because they think they're geniuses.
With the power to post about yourself on the internet comes the responsibility to not spend your time putting people down and pretending to be a brain-lord. The internet is full of absurd people who think they're total geniuses just because they were an early reader. Being able to sit through a Youtube lecture on quantum physics doesn't make you a genius, but it might make ridiculous individuals believe they're geniuses.
If there's one thing no one could have anticipated about social media, it would be the sheer volume of individuals who think they're geniuses using it as a place to stroke their own egos. They're here to lie about cool things they said, ruin jokes they didn't get, and condescendingly use big words that they just learned. Nobody's safe in a world of ridiculous individuals who believe they're geniuses.
As good as it might feel to declare yourself a genius, call people stupid because they like a different TV show, use overly complicated language incorrectly, and absolutely ruin any joke that comes across your path, people get pretty annoyed by ridiculous individuals who believe they're geniuses. So practice your self-awareness, or you might become an absurd individual who believes they're an utter genius.
When someone believes their own BS a little too hard, their ego starts to spiral out of control and before you know it, this ridiculous individual believes they're a genius. Maybe they're still riding a developmental achievement like being an "early reader" or they just took a bogus online test that told them their IQ is a thousand. Either way the internet is swimming with absurd individuals who believe they're geniuses and they're here to ruin jokes and brag about themselves.
The internet isn't lacking absurd individuals who think they're utter geniuses. It's full of folks who are convinced that they're so enlightened that it gives them an excuse to be a jerk, ruin jokes and call very normal strangers morons. The web is smeared with their cringeworthy bragging. It's like some folks think using a new word they learned yesterday will give them psychic powers.
It takes a certain lack of self awareness, combined with a weird need to prove yourself to strangers to ruin all these comments sections. It's not fun to be in conversations with absurd individuals who thinks they're utter geniuses. The internet is totally covered with cringeworthy braggarts.
Attraction is of course, subjective, but you can draw a few parallels. The basic consensus seems to be "don't be overly violent or brag about things your date doesn't care about." It makes sense. For some more perspectives from women about things men might overlook, here are behaviors that women find creepy.
When the internet becomes a place for people to share their true feelings about things, you start to get a whole lot of people who truly feel that they're unmatched geniuses whose thoughts are so vast and comprehensive that that they might as well have telekinetic powers. Maybe they're right, maybe they are truly blessed with supreme knowledge. And they use that knowledge to mostly make snide Youtube comments and smear the internet with their bragging.
The internet is absolutely smeared with the mental diarrhea of people who think they're the smartest person in the world. Whether it's claiming to be smarter than a supercomputer, having more potential than a celebrated professional, or just claiming to have a superior taste in children's cartoons, the internet has been sprayed with the cringeworthy bragging of self-titled geniuses.
Whether it's born out of insecurity, compensation or the misguided belief that they are truly the best and brightest, cringeworthy braggarts have covered the internet with their supposed genius. It's amazing to witness someone who thinks so highly of themselves with no proof other than that they just believe they're geniuses.
Whether it's a gross sense of entitlement, self importance or just a complete lack of self awareness, the internet is crawling with cringeworthy braggarts who think they're too smart for this world. From the high IQ claims to the joke ruining, these supposed geniuses covered the internet with their egos.
Whether it's overconfidence or a complete lack of self awareness, these folks just had to let everyone know how smart they thought they were, and in turn, showed everyone just how smart they ACTUALLY were. So here's a lot of over-explaining and complete bullheaded nonsense from self-titled geniuses whosmeared the internet with their cringeworthy bragging.
Some people have an underdeveloped sense of self awareness compounded by the belief that they're the smartest people on the planet. They'll brag about the music they listen to, the movies they watch, claim to be smarter than Isaac Newton and complain that they wish they were dumber so they could relate to "normal stupid people." They're not a lot of fun to be around, and they generally make the internet a worse place. So here are some self-titled geniuses who smeared the internet with their cringeworthy bragging.
