People who are bored are simply unintelligent
I never saw an idiot bored. They are easily entertained even by small things, and if they have access to a computer they can troll for hours, finding it amusing. Full literacy is not even a requirement.
exactly
there goes a saying, - something like 'blessed are the poor in spirit'
I did not take the effort to comment on it, because it usually takes a certain level of intelligence to understand, but here it is:
People who have a certain level of intelligence, often don't find satisfaction in simple things such as drinking, chatting to people about the wether and simple things. They often need more mind-challenging issues. Many intelligent people get depressed, because there are often not many others, to whom they can relay on the same or higher level.
Simply put: people with a below-average intelligence (both emotional or regular intelligence) usually feel happier, less bored, find easier satisfaction etc, or at least they think they do. Often they have not yet experienced the same things at another level
I know, this may cause some upset reactions, which is why I did not want to post something like this in the first place. But appearently there are others here who think alike
Please allow me to give an example:
- First of all, it takes one to know one. Imagine 2 computers, a state of the art 1991 x386, and a contemporary system. Imagine giving a certain calculation to the '91 (11MIPS) one, that takes him 3 days to process. The anno2013 (20400MIPS) one only needs about 2.3 minutes to do the job, and will afterwards go into
idle mode. When in idle mode he can do more, or new things. Now by the time the '91 is finished, the 2013 will may have done an additional 1853 of these calculations, on which the '91 will take 3days for 1.
After 1854 calculations, the 2013 will come to certain conclusions, and the '91 will never be able to understand why. If he however, takes the additional 15.23 years to calculate the other 1853 calculations at his pace, he CAN understand the 2013
, but by then the 2013 may have done an additional 8.705.739 of those calculations.
In short: it takes one to know one.
That is why intelligent people are often lonely, bored, unhappy :d
