Not at all, I have a great wife and two young children that keep me active and happy.

The issue is being way above average in intelligence, my everyday observations of little decisions makes me ponder things. It's probably much like when the average person looks at a monkey in the zoo throwing his feces, wondering why they do that.

lol a person who is "way above in intelligence" wouldn't be questioning someone on why they chose the username that they did. this is just too comical

I'm ending this ridiculous conversation. enjoy your weekend

Sorry but saying you're "way above average in intelligence" only makes you look like a tool.

haha exactly
 
no doubt, but when the iPhone 10 comes out he might want to change his screen name.

Nope, he won't need to change anything.
I figured your higher level of intelligence would know that he can still post using the same handle.

I know and everyone else looks like a tool to me. It's tough being smarter than most people.:rolleyes:

Lmao:D
It must be really tough being you...

You must be really confused, I am not saying he can't do anything. I know he can, I don't sit up at night worrying about it. It doesn't bother me at all, his signature "jailbreaked" doesn't even bother me. Misusing "then" and "than", "your" and "you're" and "there", "their" and "they're" bothers me a little, but you don't have to worry. I can assure you I don't lose sleep over it. I just wonder how someone makes it past 3rd grade misusing them. Since you should have learned it by then, and never stopped using them through high school and maybe college.
 
The more things you let go and not let them bother you the happier you will live.
About the misspellings also on the internet it's the same type of thing.
You can never assume everyone that posts is a full blown American born and raised and went to school here.
Many many factors and different situations out there that it's not good to judge or assume someone is stupid for example if he misspelled something.

Like I said, not much bothers me. I sometimes wonder. The funny thing about your "full blown American born" comment is that it's usually people that speak only English have bad grammar and/or bad spelling. As someone who is married to someone from Japan, and dated three other people from other foreign non-English speaking countries in my past. I have lived in 3 other countries, and a lot foreigners were correcting the Americans English.

It's all an observation, and something that makes me curious. Nothing more, the replies on here have blown it into something it's not. There is no need to make it sound like I am losing sleep here.

I can tell.
 
I used to think I had above average intelligence, then I realized I was probably actually retarded. Coming to that conclusion was humbling, but then I thought "knowing I may actually have a mental disorder may in fact mean I have above average intelligence after all."

Quite paradoxical in my mind.

I can sit and think about things for hours, things so complex that I tend to get overwhelmed. The problem is that I lack the ability to express my thoughts in any fashion that would be translatable to another human using words. Maybe I should try drawing them out, but I can't draw.

One day I would like to communicate my thoughts to another person or other being who would understand them. It's getting lonely!

Carry on.

I hear you.
Im born and raised in Europe and didn't speak a word of English when I came to the US either. But I ended up learning everything slowly and now like you mentioned I correct spelling and grammar of some individuals that English is their native and only language:D
Like you said though, no big deal and no one should be losing any sleep over it. It was just a small misunderstanding above.

Thank you for sharing:D
 
I love what I started. It's nice seeing these type of convos even though this is wrong forum.

Sometimes I feel like people are robots in here. We need like a "after dark" section in this forum where people can talk **** about how apple is so damn stingy with iphone restrictions and stuff.
