ADHD.

I have a mental disease.

I can't organize. I can't get my shit together. I can't be dependable. I can't work. I can't work. I can't work.

I can't work because I can't concentrate on shit that's boring.

 

I'm pretty much the same. Tested and retested and given all sorts of opportunities to do great things by the power of my mind alone, squandered each and every one of them due to the combination of being unable to focus on things I don't like, and some personal issues I have with my family. 

It sucks. 

Though I'm rather astonished someone as  smart and ADHD riddled as you finds quality company in a supermodel or assumes people would think all people in Africa are lazy.  those comments seemed a little out of place. 

And to be honest, the thread kinda feels like satire.  while there is a chance a supergenius would come to gamrConnect, I kind of doubt that, anyone as smart as this story claims to be would announce it.  I mean, I learned when I Was in my teens to never preach how intelligent you supposedly are.  I'm not sure who said it, but a great man once said that a smart person never declares themselves smart; if they were smart, their actions would do the speaking for them.  or something.  I'm greatly paraphrasing here.  

But if your story is true, I Feel for you. I really, really do.

She's an artsy chick - NOT a supermodel-type. She surfs, goes to trance parties, paints and grows veggies and she treats me like a god. She's the best thing I've ever discovered. Doesn't get inflated about her wealth one bit.

"assumes people would think all people in Africa are lazy"

Not all people. Just most of them. It really, really is true. If you said "Chinese people work hard" then everyone would accept that. This is the same. Nothing agains anyone - just an observation.

I never got that. A person can surely objectively measure himself to some extent!? I can surely consider my IQ as a type of signifier that (on average) 99.975% of people are less gifted than me!? I never go and talk like this to people in real life, but a forum-ego can be deleted in a whisk. Some people are naturally humble. Some people flaunt. And some people pretend to be humble because they have learnt that it is a better way to gain respect. Whatever the case may be, I don't really care, because, from what I've learnt, hard work is WAY more important than IQ.

Thanks :) but I must say that I didn't right it for the pities I'd get. No, I always write to myself. And VGChartz was open while I was sobbing like a little girl in the lab.
