You ARE aware I hope that the smarties hang out right here?


Hey don't get me wrong Stinky, I LOVE this site and all our intelligent members here. But I can't go on forever depending on a website as my sole means of social interaction!

I'm smart, but not smart enough for MENSA (Yet. perhapse later, my mental clarity has been steadily improving since getting my stress/depression under control).

It's already a pain in the ass enough that I panic in large crowds. Overal, I'm really socially innept; probably because my brother has full-blown aspergers, and my sister and I both exhibit strong symptoms, just not strong enough as to be diagnosed. Socializing is the greatest intellectual challenge of all for me.
