Hard to tell, but with 30 as world class, I think a lot of people are underestimating what they are capable of.
As for what I would focus new points into; I should take the +1dex class someone suggested, stretching and yoga are good for you; Cha boosts would give me an outsized advantage in a lot of situations…so Charisma it is.
Nothing about it in the official checks but there may be biases against various disabilities.
You wouldn’t.
I’ve considered what it would be like to be more “normal”.
Even with all the issues that come with the extra abilities. They are the good kind of problems.
If you want to put a dent in your superiority complex. Go spend a day in a mechanical workshop, try to something that can only be learned by feel and sound…
I understand. More than you realise.
Few people are interested in what I’m interested in, but companionship is not always about our interests.
Sometimes, you just need to be in the same place as others. Doing similar things. No conversion required.
Go find a local planting day, plant a tree or ten.
Most people don’t want a debate, they want pleasant conversation.
How old are you?
This reminds me of me, in my teens and early 20’s.
I’m in my 40’s now, a lot of that attitude is borne out of arrogance. Judging others by your ability,is neither fair or productive, it is also a recipe for continuous disappointment.
Being continually disappointed, will fuck up your mental health. After a certain point, the only person to compare against is your past self. Comparing to others is a excellent method for robbing yourself of any joy or fulfillment.
I mainly get annoyed, when others don’t live up to their own potential; when they offload decisions onto me, that they are more than capable of on their own.
If you really are that smart, I recommend reading philosophy, I’m partial to the Stoic’s, but there’s a lot of good stuff out there.
Great response.
The assertion that IQ is pseudoscience, is denying reality. While not an exact measure, it correlates with a lot of other measures of flourishing.
But higher IQ doesn’t necessarily mean happier, or better in any way.
I know some extremely (academically) intelligent people. Some are arrogant pricks, others are really pleasant, others still are really awkward and difficult to talk to outside their specific interests.
I’m on the border of nerd and geek
Not necessarily, a wonk (e.g. a policy wonk) is not analytically intelligent but may be emotionally intelligent.
A nerd and a wonk may have the same area of interest, but different approaches.
Reading the list, NZ does pretty well… Right to the end…
In time, has such a awesome premise.
But what we got was a “poor little rich girl” story.
