Welcome to class today! Today's lesson will be over spelling.
If you don't spell words correctly, people will think you're unintelligent. Here are some commonly misspelled words on this forum, with the misspellings to the right: misspelled mispell where were our/are are/our my mah shit shyt asian azn back baq the letter "o" 0 The right column spellings are incorrect. Do not spell these words that way. Yes, this lesson is shorter than the other, but these are just words Ms. Kim and I have noticed to be misspelled often. Don't forget, our test will be on Friday. |

You would think. But to be honest, she doesn't come off as particularly smart in person either. i guess she just has an amazing memory and studies all the time. she's very sweet, it's just...nonsensible

Hm. That's not the intellectual sort I was referring to.To me, intellectuals are informed; they speak confidently, knowing what they say is true (at least to them) and are able to back such statements up with credible sources. They should (and do) give off an impression that they are smart, or just even logical. |

Not that she ever seems dumb, of course, just not valedictorian-esque. But yes, I agree. I think I seem smarter than I actually am. People are always shocked at the pathetic state of my grades. |

People are always shocked at the pathetic state of my grades. There's a difference between being academically smart and then being intellectually smart. I hate when people think that people who do well academically are actually really smart. One of the valedictorians of my class is the dumbest shit ever. I don't consider her smart, not in the least, even though she has the 4.0.I myself have been called smart on account of grades and such, but I'm really not. Hell, I got a D in math this year. The thing is, though, grades are never really fair. People cheat all the time to get ahead, so how do you know if they're truly "smart" or not? Teachers grade with different levels of difficulty, so how can you judge if someone is smart or not by their grades? Then there are those with real potential, that really are smart. Some of the most intelligent people I've ever talked to have failed classes. Because they didn't try in school. Grades and school are no way to guage one's level of intelligence. You have to watch the way they hold themselves and how they speak. Despite the grades though, I am confident in what I say, I stick with what I say, I defend it, and (ha, in case you couldn't tell) I'm clearly an elitist, so I guess I consider myself an intellect to some degree, especially when compared to a lot of cB members. Anyway. This is way off topic now and I digress. Yay for English lessons.

Just don't expect any respect from people.
