The internet isn't lacking in people who need to project their insecurities onto others, while also sort of bragging? These are the folks in the comments section who brag about their "tremendous IQs" and armchair philosophize on the nature of reality. It's pretty cringey. Anyway here's more of them.

Maybe you're the best Smash Bros or Ping Pong player among your friends. Nothing will prepare you for seeing someone who's actually really good at it. Sure, stay humble and learn from your failures, but here are some things to not get too cocky about before seeing someone who can really do it.
These very smart showboats are like nails on a chalkboard. All that intellect is just so overwhelming, man. It must be hard to sleep at night, to coexist, with a universe of mouth breathers that can't come close to understanding the depths of their knowledge. It's clearly not going to their heads.

Sometimes a comment thread is actually fun. There's chill people making jokes and sharing interesting information. Everyone is just there for personal enjoyment. But then someone just has to ruin it by missing a few jokes, trying to correct everyone and claiming that they're a literal genius and that everyone else can suck a fat one. Just great.
Remember Ice Cube's 1992 hit "Today Was a Good Day"? It's the track where Ice Cube describes a day of drinking, the Lakers being the Supersonics, driving around on three wheels and not having to use his AK. We've all heard it. We all love it. But Tumblr user hiphopfightsback decided to try to figure out if it was actually a real day in history and what that date was. This is Tumblr at it's finest.
People often privately think they are the smartest person in the world, and that's fine for the most part. But when they get in strangers faces and waste peoples time bragging about their own false sense of superiority, things get cringey. They get real cringey real fast.
What's frustrating about people who think they're smart is that they never learn anything. Having an ego isn't illegal, but when you start trying to bully people online, say really obvious shit, and ruin everyone's time, then you've become a burden. Here's to hoping these folks can see the bigger picture.
At its best, a comments section is a place for people to discuss new ideas, share interesting stories, and tell each other jokes. At its worst, it kinda looks something like this. Egotistical braggarts tearing each other down for no reason other than to make themselves feel something. Boy it happens a lot.
Oh man, you don't want to get into a smart-off with these Leviathans of intellect. Lord knows their enormous brains, crackling with knowledge, would have you slumping at their feet. Seriously, who thinks they're this smart? And further, who thinks it's an attractive quality to go around repeating it?
It's a big world out there, which means there's a whole lot of opportunity to hear some pure, unadulterated stupid. You wouldn't believe how many people out there are totally in the dark about how the technology, biology, and even tarps work. What a great time to be alive. If this isn't enough, then here's more of the dumbest things people have heard.
When people projectile word vom*t their undigested thoughts on social media, the rest of the internet, occasionally steps up to correct the stupid. In these cases, we're dealing with a nice dose of spicy wit and unapologetically brutal logic. The ensuing public "conversations" or moments, are pretty entertaining. See for yourself.
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.
