"My friend in college graduated Summa Cum Laude with a double major in Biology and Chemistry. She went on to medical school and became a physician in a hospital you’ve definitely heard of.
One day she put a fork in the microwave when heating up a bowl of green beans, and I had to explain to her why the microwave sounded like it was full of firecrackers."

It's a combination of being too busy studying to learn the practical things in life, plus that academics can attract people who have no practical skills in the first place.

Having a degree in something just shows that you know a lot of intricate details about that subject. It has nothing to do with how smart or stupid you are. As proven multiple times in this post.

Rella, that's not really true. Being smart is having metal capability - it doesn't mean you've been exposed to all knowledge nor does it mean you can't have the occasional thoughtless lapse. You don't get a medical doctorate if you're not smart. You don't get an engineering degree if you're not smart.

Chrissy,Actually, Rella is right, to a point. Learned intelligence is not equal to smartness. Being smart is the ability to think on your feet and cover all ramifications related. Intelligence means you absorbed the info you learned but does not necessarily give you the control over aplication

Chrissy,
Here in New Zealand you can become a dentist even if you can't pass the tests ... as long as you are Maori that is (indigenous people) European people have to pass all the tests, so, if you ever come to New Zealand and need a dentist ....

#15.. A truly smart person would not have bothered to include a timer, since it served no purpose in the application when a simple on - off remote switch would have sufficed

Knew someone with a degree who would not believe that Northern Ireland was a thing, because and I quote "There is nothing north of Ireland other than the sea"... I told her to look at a map, I promise it's there. She refused, because such a thing could impossibly exist, she would know if it did, so why waste the time?

Educated people have to stop confusing education with intelligence, they are two entirely different things.
