I know that I am smarter than nearly everyone else I have to deal with.

I also know that I just ended a sentence with a preposition, and I don't care.

My wife told me that her mantra before group insurance enrollment meetings was "I'm smart, you're stupid... I'm smart, you're stupid..."

I know.....lamp!

I know it won;t be long until someone says that they know that they don't know more than they know. probably spex or bigv would be my guess.

Don't worry about it. Most prescriptivists that have any clue are dropping that rule.

wolf - that's interesting, because I think that everyone is smarter than me in some way.

It's not always easy to see what that way is, but it sure does keep me humble while I'm trying to figure it out.

Well, I had no idea what "prescriptivists" are -- but now I know.

I know that no matter what happens, I will be dissatisfied.

Shawnee -- I think you put in one too many.

Also, I see you've changed your title. That's a good one.

I copied and pasted from a lyrics site...probably unreliable. I tried to do it in my head and lost track.

and this makes you better than them somehow? being humbler? the only true humility is to admit that you are better than everyone else and accept it. Only then can you deal honestly with them. Acting 'humbler' is an expression of superior humility. you cad.
