Social media has given ridiculous people a place to insert their supposed genius into everyone else's lives. It could be that these absurd people think they're geniuses because they once took a bogus IQ test. Sometimes it's just a defense mechanism for not getting a joke. Sometimes people are so caught up in their own narcissism that they start to believe they have brain powers.

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.

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.

The internet is filled to the brim with self-titled geniuses who are convinced of their own superiority. They spend time online ruining jokes, tearing down other people and bragging about grades they got in middle school. Whether it's caused by narcissism or a sheer lack of self awareness, these cringeworthy braggarts won't stop covering the internet with their supposed genius.

Sometimes we can't tell if we love or hate puns. Depending on who you ask, they're either created by geniuses or monsters, but they can definitely be overwhelming, like this sign's pun game that is too strong. Sometimes you just need some puns to satisfy those wordplay cravings.

If you've ever found yourself "accidentally" doing something illegal, it's easy to get paranoid and imagine there could be an authority figure behind any tree, corner, or about to pop out of a storm drain. Now imagine you're fishing illegally and you find yourself reeling in a fish and game warden, like a goddamn cartoon. On the other side of the spectrum, here are stories of 17 police officers encounters with criminal masterminds.

Not all jokes have to make a point, and not all simple observations are just that. Sometimes there's a very fine line between what is simply something that exists, and a joke. Sometimes there's no line. Something can be absurdly stupid but still technically correct. And that is what I will be serving for your main dish today: a steaming hot plate of technically correct jokes. This is great for annoying particularly picky people, so send this to all your obsessive friends. And yes, it's a bit dad-jokey to get so technical, but we love it. 

The internet is brimming with random encounters with these knuckleheads. First you're chillin' in the youtube comments section and everyone is being cool, then someone brings up thermodynamics for no reason. These guys took their egos to new heights. Just a bunch of brain geniuses, all of em.

These jokes might be dumb, and they might be missing the point, but you can't say that they're wrong. They're technically correct, and although that might get to some of you, that's exactly why we do this. Is there anything more satisfying than being technically correct? I don't think so. It's great. 

You just can't compete with these brilliant geniuses. Their knowledge of art, science and philosophy is only matched by the likes of Mozart, Einstein, and Plato. How can we all live in our own paltry minds knowing that these mind-tyrants are out there, brooding on social media.

Prepare to feel as insipid as you are, mere simpleton. These great minds are in the leagues of Einstein and Nietzsche, and could not be bothered by your pedestrian ways. They know big words and inhabit the realm of ideas, something that you could never know. Do you even watch Rick and Morty?
