When I was graduating, for the first time our gpas were posted for ranking. I won’t say where I was on the list (it wasn’t the top but it wasn’t far, relatively speaking) and a girl who had been my next door locker neighbor and classmate for YEARS looked at me dead in the eyes and said, “You’re smart?”

I generally would say stupid or inane things to keep it light. Still do.

So do a ton of people here.

Some of you prefer not to let us know how smart you are and that’s cool too.

But we see.
