smart

Man oh man, it's a Tumblr thread like this that might lead you to walk through life with just a bit more caution about strangers' underlying intentions. Specifically, whether or not that random dude who shows up wearing a work outfit similar to the company you work for, actually works for the company. Honestly wonder if that little bit about Leo DiCaprio is true or not. If it is, that's hilarious. For some more gold from Tumblr check out this wild Tumblr thread about a neighbor Steve and the abominations. It's a trip. 

There is absolutely nothing wrong with being smart. The world needs smart people. Like a lot. The problem is that dumb people have a tendency to think that they're smart. It could be caused by narcissism. It could be due to the fact that social media gives people a whole lot of space to talk about themselves. Either way these brain tyrants who think they're literal geniuses have a peculiar way of somehow being condescending and stupid at the same time. It's maddening.

We love fun little Tumblr posts like the one we have here that shine a light on how the random bits of knowledge we pick up as we move through this life, can end up serving us in all kinds of ways further on down the road. So, if anything it's stories like these that can encourage us to embrace all those absurd rabbit holes filled with surprising insights that you can come across as you stumble through the vast expanse of the wild world of Tumblr. Who knows how that knowledge could end up serving you further on down the road. 

This is that rare, beautiful, profound moment that our teachers would ramble on about during school where math actually ends up serving us in our lives. Math can actually be fun and useful sometimes. Strange. 

Man oh man, you just never really know if you're going to end up in a living situation that's hopelessly bogged down by a tyrannical landlord who misplaced their moral compass. Sometimes the relationship between a tenant and their landlord can end up falling apart when it's least expected. This scenario certainly fits that mold. Mary seemed like she was great at the start, but that welcoming facade quickly gave way to the real monster that was hiding out inside. We're just glad everything worked out for the tenant by the end. The look on Mary's face must've been priceless too. 

The internet's full of mind titans and obnoxious "brainiacs" that spew off half baked sentiments that are wrapped up in flowery words with the intention to flex those fragile egos. Unfortunately, these brainiacs are blinded by the love they possess for hearing themselves talk, and thus don't realize that everyone else is having none of it. Hopefully you don't find yourself realizing you say a lot of the things mentioned in this list. But, if you do, never too late to change. 

We've seen our fair share of bosses that never should've been put in their places of power in the first place. With that being said, it's nothing short of deeply satisfying to see a boss show the rest of the world why they were given the reins like they were. This boss pulled off some straight up tech support magic, and left everyone else in speechless awe. Pretty awesome that she was able to extract that number in under 8 minutes. You don't even need to know what that means to appreciate the timely manner with which she pulled it off. 

Give a sheepdog something to herd and by god it will herd that thing. In this case it was a little lawn care robot. That is a smart dog. Under the right circumstances, pets find ways to do creepily intelligent things. And there's something about roombas that make them seem more than just a mindless robot. For example, here Tumblr explores human nature with the concept of a "knife roomba."

Most of us have some sense of decorum online, but there also exists a group of cringey mind-tyrants who try way too hard to seem smart. It's a world of longwinded "takedowns" of okay tv shows, overly wordy self appraisals and paragraphs on not understanding jokes. Just a real fun group of bragging mind lords.

Now this is what math was made for. Yes, calculating how to go about getting the cheapest deal on wings is the best use of one's time. We just love it when people come together for stuff like this. 

There is no limit to the observations tumblr users can make. Whether it's a poignant musing on humanity in general or a bone-chillingly dumb opinion on eggs , there's a time and place for it. Funny, random and shiny tumblr gems burst forth from the full pockets of the internet, not necessarily changing the world but also being time well spent.

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.

This must be the smartest answer to one of the dumbest questions we've seen in a long time.
