If you’re a smart person, you probably keep it to yourself most of the time. Unless, of course, people insist you’re dumb all the time. Then, I guess you might stand up for yourself.
If no one asked, however, and you start rattling off your IQ or SAT scores, guess what… You’re probably not smart. You’re probably just a dork.

Anyway, read these funny posts of “smart people” getting owned in the comments section. Then, go read a book.
