being stupid lets you either live in blissful ignorance or punch shit to death
being smart lets you either be perpetually frustrated at the state of the world or perpetually up your own ass
Depends how. Some nerds are very well-spoken and creative and able to discuss and process complex issues and concepts, yet they can't manage hygiene or finances. I'd like to be the stupid that's genetically gifted with a model body, that way I can find a sugar mama and not worry about smart person shit.
The real kicker is that very stupid people often think they are smart, thus gaining the benefit of self-esteem for their perceived intelligence while also retaining the privilege of blissful ignorance of all the existential dread you have to face as someone of average or higher intelligence. It ain't fair, bros...
being stupid would have its benefits. just standing inline merc'ing myself with vaccines and pills....the upside is i wouldnt know any better and i could just watch shitty netflix and youtube show, blissfull unaware
I believe this was covered in the movie Forrest Gump. Forrest is an example of a stupid person who does what he knows he's supposed to and things eventually work out for him. Jenny is an example of a smart person who makes stupid decision which wind up in misfortune. Moral is, "Stupid is what stupid does". You're only as stupid as you act.
