Do you feel like you are the only person with sanity and intelligence? everyone is a degenerate fuck here,i lost 15 iq whenever i talk with normies
Yes i have superioty complex.but that because normies are insane,they are sheeps with no consciousness
i seem to have misplaced mine

Yeah, I was 18 once.
>>26540387
I feel more intelligent than 90-99% people around me at nearly all times, and I'm as sane as can be.

You okay there bud? You seem to have read things in my post that weren't actually there. You also seem to have confused mocking with preaching.
Don't worry, it'll probably sort itself out when you mature into adulthood.

People aren't in a hurry all the time, therefore they are dumb.
Have you considered you rushing about everywhere to get where you're going is because you're
a)autistic
b)stupid, meaning you have to rush to have enough time to finish what you're doing
c)both

Autistic, aye, but that doesn't change the fact that what they're doing is a waste of time.

How is >>26540387 original? Literally everyone has felt like a smug smartass
I just feel like no one I know really 'thinks' about shit. Like, I'm constantly thinking about all that edgy shit like my own mortality, morals, our place in the universe, etc because I'm an autistic fuck, but whenever I try to have a discussion about it with someone they always back down because they get too freaked out by it. It's like normies don't want to see the bigger picture because they're scared about it taking them outside of their little bubble of ignorance.
>>26540387
It's not superiority complex, it's called egocentricity.
You've tricked yourself to see other people as some human-like automatons rather than self concious beings with equally extensive cumulative history of events and feelings that've built their current self.
Most of us grow out of it after we interact with society enough.
>>26541449
100% this. Holy shit that read was relatable.
I ponder things on the daily.
>>26541449
I also realize I sound like a self absorbed cunt through this post but all I want is to have a heart to heart talk about this deep stuff with another human being.
Also, no one seems to care about their legacy, and being remembered after their deaths, mainly because they don't want to accept that their death will occur, which I find depressing because no one will really set out to accomplish something like many figures of history did because they'd rather just go with the flow of everyday life, and find being just another cog in the system preferable, and don't contemplate that their existence will go unnoticed by humanity.
This is my greatest fear.
>>26541184

Sometimes, I agree treating yourself to stuff is great. Then again, you shouldn't treat yourself to anything whilst in a workplace/when you could potentionally hold other people back with that treatment.
>>26541588
I have steam, it says I'm Ukrainian but I'm not desu.
>>26541543
You're making a lot of faulty assumptions here. Just because you care about leaving a legacy noticed by humanity, doesn't mean other people should as well. Your values aren't some universal good that should be shared by everyone.
I don't care about leaving a legacy, don't give a shit if anyone remembers me, and am fully content with my humble place as a cog within the larger universe that will play out as an uneventful, largely meaningless life. Does that make me inferior because I don't cherish the things you value? Do you really think yourself superior because you're worrying about things I don't consider important? Because you're so fixated on doing a particular thing in this transient world?
>>26541744
Well, my steam is "CAESAR KOLIA" if you (or anyone else who wants to discuss similar things for that matter) wants to add me.
>>26540387
>sheeps
MUH SUPERIORTUH
>>26541708
Are these people holding you/anyone else back? Also why shouldn't you treat yourself while at work? Why is work important? Who made it important?
>>26541751
It does make you two different though. Its completely reasonable to hold your values higher than other peoples values (because if other peoples values had the same value or higher value those would be your values).
So you are different and since you are different your view is not the one i prefer (aka in some way inferior).
>>26541783
I enjoy speaking to you. Questions are great.
They are holding me back if they're walking slowly, and I feel personally ill when I think about the way they hold themselves back productively.
If they treat themselves at work it'd mean (if it doesn't mean this, then it's alright) stopping someone in their presence, or themselves.
Work is important for self-developement in my eyes.
The one defining work as important should mostly be oneself.
>>26541855
Yes but since work is not properly defined we have a problem. If they are blocking your way then wherever you walk must be really crowded because i never have that problem (but i might live somewhere less crowded). How you feel about what other people is your problem not theirs (as long as they stay decently close to social norms).
I'd say its completely reasonable to treat yourself at work if the way in which you do it coincides decently with social norms.
Why is self development important, why should i strive for it? Who benefits? Isn't taking it slow which makes you feel good self development?
I don't define work as important, i think other people want me to feel like work is important because they will benefit. I feel like making myself happy is important (and not in a yolo way, that just poor optimization).
>>26541543
And I firmly believe that people who are obsessed with their legacy are the most cowardly, deluded and, more than anything, narcissistic. From my point of view, they are the ones who just can't accept their mortality and the tragedy of human existence (the fact that we are mere sacks of flesh but we somehow have this irrational need to find meaning where there is none, which is the origin of all misery). They try to drown the bad thoughts in a sea of distractions (working to cement a legacy, whatever the hell this means).
Though I agree it would be nice to talk about this with someone in real life. Definitely more interesting than work or school projects, even though both parties leave the discussion with their beliefs untouched.
>>26542038
I'd be pretty happy if you presented some kind of proof why that is the origin of misery....
>>26540387
Dunning kruger effect bby.
you got it.
>>26541832
>So you are different and since you are different your view is not the one i prefer (aka in some way inferior).
Don't you see the fault in that way of thinking? There's an implicit assumption built into this superior vs inferior that your views are correct, and others are wrong; not because of logical failures, or demonstrable mistaken assumptions, simply because you don't hold those views.
It's more than just being different, it's actively holding the intelligence of others in contempt because they don't agree with you.
>>26542038
To me a legacy is quite the opposite, it is for those who understand their time on this earth is limited, and wish to do something lasting and positive that could better all of mankind, the aspect of being remembered after death is just a byproduct of that, but still one that I personally see as a proof of your existence, so you don't just fade into the twilight.
This is just my aspect of looking at it, which is one that considers human history, while yours seems more of a nihilistic, universal kind of view. I just want to do something that can make life better for people, because we get one shot and there's too many ways of looking at it to fulfill all of our expectations and aspirations in life in our short time. This is what I mean by a legacy, not so much something that prolongs your own life through memory, but a lasting impact on human history for the better, even if human history itself is but a small part in a much larger universe that really doesn't even consider us at all.
>>26542377
I never said others were stupid, i said their beliefs were. Huge difference. Also i never say my views are correct all i say is that they are the best views i know of (with "goodness" being something i define myself).
I can obviously be like some views more than others. For instance I like porn, i don't like asian porn but i understand why someone would. I can't understand why someone likes weird fetish porn.
This means that the hierarchy would be "the porn i like">Asian porn >fetish porn. Where the difference between "the porn i like" and Asian porn is very small compared to the difference between "the porn i like" and fetish porn.
>>26542532
I should also add that the preservation of the person who accomplished their 'legacy' is important in that it adds the human element to it, an example that others can build on. The story of Napoleon or Disney wouldn't be half as memorable or inspiring without the man to put behind it, and it allows more and more people to really push for betterment, of not only themselves but their fellow man and future generations.
There's two ways of looking at this, the personal aspect that grounds the whole thing, and the big picture that gives a target to aim for, we can only move forward in this so we might as well make it better before it gets worse.
>>26542658
I for one dislike people and don't want "betterment" for humanity. I feel that the best thin for humanity would be to abolish most of the superstructure that we have today.
>>26542629
>I never said others were stupid, i said their beliefs were. Huge difference
That's basically the same thing, it's just playing semantics. If someone holds "stupid beliefs", that's an indictment on their intelligence, by definition, intelligent people think intelligently.
>Also i never say my views are correct all i say is that they are the best views i know of
So you don't consider your views an absolute truth (And presumably you would change them if you came across credible evidence to the contrary), yet you still look down on people who don't share them as holding inferior beliefs.
No op I don't. Because I'm not smart enough to assess every aspect of what other people are saying. Assuming I got what motivations they had for what they had would be stupid.
It's incredibly hard to accurately know if you're relatively smart or not. That's why we have all the different tests.
People should be surprising you all the time. Some people appear dumb but then they can draw a rather long conclusion suddenly.
>>26541449
yeah whenever I try to talk to friends about it they act like I'm trying to bring them down, it's not like I'm even being morbid they just can't deal with any topic that isn't about stacey's latest bf
>>26540387
no I do not, in fact, have a superiority complex.
Part of my lack of success in life was fed into by being born unintelligent.
>>26542827
Actually a superiority complex is an attitude of superiority that conceals feelings of inferiority and failure, not the belief that you are actually superior.
>>26542869
There's this comment if you need proof that I'm a legitimate idiot.
>>26541449
I keep shit to myself, but in the event my true inquisitive self reveals mysef 9 times out of 10 it culminates in a pseudo-smug self-righteous sperg rage on my part and anger on the other person's fault.
It's ironic; the ego that tells you you're superior to everyone, and essentially more human, an ubermensch who thinks more than the "sheep", is the same ego that drags you down in the end and humanizes you due to your own arrogance. Funny.
What needs to come from this "superiority complex" phase is an aversion to the ego, and from there ascension beyond it.
>>26542893
No it's a common mistake
>>26542723
That's just too much of a negative and impossible way of looking at it for me, I used to be nihilistic and want nothing more than to just die and get the whole theater production over with, but I came to realize that I was a one in a trillion chance, that the fact that I am even sentient is something I should cherish above all else. Existence is a wonderful thing, and although there's so much pain and misery in our world, and overall we exist in a cold and uncaring universe, the things that make it beautiful are just magnified. Basically, your'e here, you exist, and nothing is gonna change that until you die, and while some things might be ugly about you living, the reality is is that this is your one shot. Sure you could just exist in bitterness waiting to die, but to squander the amazing gift that is life, even if it's only here for a short time, is such a waste that those who just want to get on with it sadden me to no end. I've got some genetic heart problems, and likely won't see my 30th birthday, and I'm pretty ugly and generally don't seem very appealing to people in terms of social activity, but I'm happy with what I got because I got it at all.
We really are a special creation in this universe, the creation of life was one thing, but a life form that evolved to the point of intelligent thought, and the pondering of their own existence is something really special.
>>26541533
I'm worried about being this guy. I have trouble dealing with people who think they know something but don't, but I'm worried about going too far.
>>26542777
I completely disagree, being stupid implies limited reasoning skills (aka smart people know how to reason). Having stupid beliefs means believing in the wrong things (aka people can have good reasoning skills but since they start with bad premises they end up with bad beliefs) even though their reasoning was good).
I never said i looked down on people i said i looked down on their beliefs.
Example: I think being a fundamentalist Christian is a bad belief. This does however not mean that all fundamentalist Christians are stupid. It just means that this one belief they hold (and share) is stupid.
If they convinced me to share their view i would define it as a smart view (probably with reasoning close to the one they convinced me with).
Aka i now think it is a stupid belief, i might change my mind if someone talks to me but with the knowledge(and feelings) i have currently it is stupid.
>>26542961
Well i would agree if i were happy :). But im not since i don't like people and people makes people happy, and im a person.

I don't mean that there is always a happy medium. Going too far would be like believing one is better than others, something I disagree is possible since free will isn't real (I hope we can all agree). People have no magical control over themselves. Going not far enough in whatever belief we're discussing would be like saying everything is the same.
>>26543088
I can't agree sorry.
>>26543088
I don't believe I'm better than others, in fact I tend to consider myself pretty lowly in comparison, I just want more people to really consider their existence, to really realize that this is their one shot and to consider it not a negative position, but a wonderful opportunity to be all they can be, to put aside differences and trivial things so that everyone can get the best out of their one shot, and so that future generations can as well. I don't consider myself an optimist, just someone who's alive.
>>26543133
With what specifically? Is it the belief that free will isn't real or something else? If it's the free will thing, then what is free will? AFAIK if we live in one of the following:
1. Everything is predetermined (determinism) free will can't work because what will happen will certainly happen.
2. Everything basic is random (sufficient determinism) so nobody has control over the future again, so there's no free will.
3. There is nothing, so free will can't exist since it's nothing.
If you can tell me what free will is/what you mean by it, I'd care to hear.
>>26543078
>>tfw idiots who have somehow survived to adulthood but can't cover their fucking mouths when they cough or eat
fuck
>>26541449
I think the main reason I think you feel like they don't think a lot is that if you pick a random topic among the massive amount of topics there could be you probably haven't thought about it. But you're constantly exposed to all those thoughts you're having so you think you think a lot. When they think you don't read notice. You always notice yourself though. You hardly ever get to observe someone who thought of something in advance unless they are presenting it to you or its something of obvious focus. Like a math problem on the board in maths class (also a presentation I guess).
I took notes one day and the amount of silent undisturbed (not in public, those days become outliers) thinking time I have per day is about 15 hours assuming I go to sleep properly (thinking time gets less efficient when tired anyway). It sounds like a lot but I just don't rally
I do consider r9k thinking time though. Which perhaps isn't entirely fair because most of it is explaining things I've thought. Like this. (specifically that I perceive people as thinking less and why)
I think this is gonna hurt my social abilities if I ever get rid of social anxiety.
Too tired to communicate this stuff well right now.
>>26543203
>I don't believe I'm better than others, in fact I tend to consider myself pretty lowly in comparison
ITT: lies people who think they're superior tell themselves
>>26543209
I mean that free will and not free will are indistinguishable. Aka it's impossible to tell if we have free will or not. aka 2-ish. (unknowable is not the same as random, but we use randomness to model it).
>>26543247
I think that might be a paradox...
>>26543296
My issue is that even if we could determine what free will was, what would it be? I can imagine what the Christian God is, but I can't think what free will is. By indistinguishable, do you mean that they are the necessarily the same or are the same in our universe? Or do you mean that there is a difference but we can't tell it?
I know it sounds edgy but relationships really are worthless and disappointing.
>>26543396
Still wanna know first hand.
>>26543357
I mean that we can't tell the difference, which is the same as to say that there are no differences.

>>26540387
