Current Events > Do you think smart people are usually quiet, and stupid people are loudmouths?

(+) Yeah! (+)

Or is that not the case?

Better to remain silent and thought a fool then to open ones mouth and remove all doubt

Homer: what does that mean? Better say something fast or theyll think your stupid takes one to know one!! Swish

A lot of educated people arent smart enough to know when to shut up

100% yes

Hell, even the stupid junkie patients I get never shut the fuck up about the dumbest shit >_>

Well, you're a loudmouth, so... Yeah

Is that why you make so many topics?

Smart people "read the room" and adjust, often without saying a word.

Stupid people expect the room to accommodate their presence or things get loud.

Better to be a fool for 5 minutes, than a lifetime.

That ship has sailed for Sunhawk. You'd be hard pressed to find anyone on CE who doesn't think he's a fool

I live by, "if you dont take action, you won't make mistake".

I obviously know its flawed and one shouldn't live like that but im the better safe than sorry type of person. I not going to act tough and attempt stuff im not confident with, i'll let others be the hero.

Lol first thing that came to my mind

Of course "loudmouths" are stupid. It's a word used to be insulting. No one calls someone they think is loud and smart a "loudmouth". They'd call them passionate or something

If you mean "talks a lot", that's a different conversation. Id say neither is a sign of stupidity or intelligence on their own. You'll definitely have a lot more people telling you you're stupid if you talk a lot. Because being quiet is inoffensive and talking can lead to people being offended

Some of the loudest "no filter" people go through life thinking they're social geniuses simply because most of their daily interactions are just bystanders nodding in agreement until they can slip away. This also happens because none of the bystanders see the loud person as valued enough to warrant the truth.

Knowing you don't know shit is a step in intelligence some never make it too :3. We live not knowing shit and we die not knowing shit. If you're not confused, you're not thinking hard enough.

Agree with the first part. We've all been the person that just wanted to wait it out til we can walk away.

Second part, not so much. No one cares to take on the role to teach them the truth. They just wanna move on with their lives. The average person isn't placing a value system on those not close enough to them to touch their life lol.

extroverted smart people are by far the most successful in life

This is kind of great.

Not always

I dunno, I think there's plenty of times I haven't thought fast enough on my feet and came out looking pretty stupid.

At the very least, the quiet people is smart enough to know when to shut their mouth.

Not at all. Your personality and temperament aren't at all related to your intelligence. Being loud and stupid is just the combination that stands out the most.

I'm a massive idiot but I'm smart enough to keep my mouth shut a lot of the time so people don't find out

Uh it's definitely contextual. A single post can be louder than someone making 20 posts.

No one cares what I think so talk about yourself
