Ben stein made a living from being the smartest guy in the room, gets a questionable injection. The jokes write themselves.
At least he has the balls to admit it and warn people.
True, but he ends his testimony by telling everyone he isn't sorry he got it and that others should, too. I award him no points.
True. But he'll be banned next.
Exactly Patriot, I doubt he feels smart now.
When did he ever give the impression he was smart and not just a very dry monotone jew?
I think I confused the two now. People seem smart when they let silence hang. Or they let silence exist between words. I am human after all. I love living long enough to learn!
Being "smart" is simple, it requires listening, and feeling, and marrying the two behaviors. People love to talk about themselves, so in conversation, you don't have to think of anything cool to say, just be willing to listen.
How do you listen you ask? Simple, you repeat verbatim, the last word the other person emphasized or put emphasis on. Again, you have to listen to the person, and we all know how hard it is to do such a simple task. However, if you do listen for, and repeat verbatim the word(s) they put emphasis on, the conversation will continue. It will continue for as long as you wish.
I can't stand listening to other people and wish they'd just get to the fucking point so I don't use this exploit much, unless I'm trying to get into a girls pants.
