I put my Cornell education to the back of my mind, roll up my sleeves and engage with the rapscallions of the Off-Topic Lounge.

But then you sit down with someone like this to have a deep, philosophical, abstract conversation and find they're completely out of their element because everything is true/false, black/white, binary in their minds.
I don't think we'll ever learn how to properly gauge intelligence. There are several different types and each type thrives under particular circumstances and fail under others.

You are confusing smart with successful. Dude is probably a genius but lazy or can’t function in normal society beyond bagging groceries. I have met many really smart people way more intelligent than myself but they can’t work with average people or relate to them.

One of my friends graduated in Electrical Engineering with a 3.95 GPA, went to dental school and then trained in orthodontics. If not for the woman that runs his practice he would be homeless, and probably starve to death.
