  • No1 has noted tht it gos bck 2 us being animals.Tall men exude authority,they will lead us 2 nab the biggest Wooly Mammoth.While the pesky short men have that Napolean complex of granduer which is obvious n ridiculous 2 witness 2 al but themselves it seems.While al women r simply th gatherers of berries lke days of old,except now they gather and collect shoes.Theyre only gd 4 1 thing so y nt choose the nice rack?Ur gonna get the same gossipy childish result of n employee either way

    The answer is simple in two parts:

    1) If you really think you know it all, it probably means you know nothing. The smartest and most competent people often doubt themselves quite a bit, so if you have no doubts, you're probably not that smart.

    2) Regardless of what you know, or think you know, always make an effort to learn more and do more. That way, no matter where you fit, you're always getting better.

  • This reminds me of Robert Anton Wilson's "cosmic schmuck" theory.
