I am a confident genius.

I've known two people who claimed they had IQ's in the 160 range (and they were both women!)

One of them always laughed at my obtuse jokes instantly, and I thought she was just being polite, so I asked her to explain them a few times. She understood all the subtleties in less than a second. I had another friend who was a great guy, but wasn't so smart. Sometimes he'd laugh 10 minutes after I told the joke, but he wasn't so stupid that he thought he could get away with saying he was a genius.

Anyway, a few years ago this girl came up to me at my computer and asked "What'cha doin'?" whether out of boredom or politeness I don't know. But anyway, I was trying to use the freetype library to render TTF fonts on the computer screen, and while I could render the character shapes, they were wonky all over the screen like those TVland ransom notes where somebody pastes letters cut out of a magazine. I explained that while I had to add a Y offset multiplied by the screen width to this character to put it on the row I wanted, but there was also another Y offset in the glyph to say how high to render this glyph, an 'A' needing to start higher on the screen than a 'g'. She'd never used a programming language before, but she pointed and said "Don't you have to also multiply this glyph offset by screen width to get the right value?". I was floored, and tried it and they rendered perfectly. I'd effectively been adding this glyph Y offset to the X offset making the line of text look cartoonish. And not only that, but she suggested adding these Y offsets together before multiplying so there'd be fewer operations needed. Program optimization from a girl who'd never programmed before! I know the above went WHOOSH over your head, smokey, but it's for the benefit of the voaters with a brain.

OTOH, the other woman I knew who claimed to have a 167 IQ saw me playing a game of chess on the computer and mentioned she'd been a chess master back in the day. I offered to play her on the computer but she said she'd only play on a real board. So I went to a department store a couple days later to get a real board and pieces and brought it to her. After several prompts of me saying "Do you wish to reconsider your last move?" and she'd confidently say "NO!" I'd take her queen and she'd fold, saying "I always concede when I lose the queen" throwing the word "concede" in there hoping to give the impression she was smart. Kind of like 2fat2move tossing his shiny new term "swyer" around trying to impress people.

You're far, far more like the second woman mentioned here, smoke.

It's hilarious how you think anyone reads what you write.

That's not a mantra. Go look up what a mantra is. You're making yourself look even dumber. Which is impressive.
