For real. Everytime I get in the shower I end up having to point the showerhead away and cower from the cold water and I could have just turned it on first?

"I'm working on my masters and I feel like such a dumbass..."

Never assume someone with an advanced degree knows anything outside of that degree because "they must be smart".

There is a difference between "intelligent" and "smart" is the way I like to describe myself.

I'm college educated. But I'm also the guy that took twelve years to realize that his stove had a cook-timer on it...

Also theres a difference between being knowledgeable and smart or intelligent. I know a lot of facts because I'm curious about stuff. But I'm not particularly better at figuring things out than the average person.
