The ego posturing on this forum is intense. Anyone else get a kick out of it?

I also invented the wheel.

Wasn't that Al Gore?

I was going to major in Aerospace Engineering at one point in my life. Does that count for anything?

Nah he just invented the internet and fought off man bear pig.

Going to be an Aerospace Engineer? Sure that counts, but embellish a bit. I created this thread so all of us geniuses could poke fun at each other. Apparently people that build flying robots as a hobby don't think little of themselves :)

Pat, I totally agree that there is much brilliance on this forum. I was just hinting that humility may be in short supply.

LMFAO

[patrickegan]

Sure them too (and in the making). It is virtually impossible to have a normal conversation in an online forum, so take it all with a grain of salt. :)

I stayed at a Holiday Inn a couple of weeks ago...you could have asked me anything the next day but I think it has worn off.

[Gary Mortimer]

Pah wheel, we are all on wheel 2.0 here.

The square one.

[bmw330i]

LOL, I have never seen so many people start posts with their academic credentials as I do here.

I try and remember a single genius who started conversations, or any communication with their credentials...or put down others as stupid.

Nope, seems a sign of something other than genius to act that way. I am certain the truly bright see it and smile with us.

Wait, do you mean to tell me there's no graduate program for 'genius'? That's as disappointing as finding out there's no job called 'getting paid'.

I watched a documentary on Ben Franklin the other day. He seemed pretty smart but I'm afraid he didn't have a college degree so he must have been stupid. *sarcasm*

[patrickegan]

The Ben Franklin thing could lead to a good discussion. I'm going to do a electric panel upgrade on my cabin (raining today so we scrubbed) Funny, I was thinking about Ben and the kite key thing, wondering how many persons with true genius go totally unnoticed and why???

The more corrupt the state, the more numerous the laws.

It is unfortunate that the intelligent are often subjugated under totalitarian governments. All of this in the "land of the free" no less.

There was a time when "Peace, commerce and honest friendship with all nations; entangling alliances with none." was the doctrine of the day. Now we have ITAR.

[reph]

Humility among the talented is usually just socially advantageous passive-aggressive arrogance. I should know! I'm both humble and talented!

So true. Our man Ben Franklin knew he was brilliant but got so much farther in life by portraying the "common man". It also made him a total pimp with the ladies :D

"Stupid is, is Stupid does"

"Stupid is, AS stupid does"

Forrest Gump's "Stupid is as stupid does" is a variant of an old
adage, "Handsome is as handsome does." This saying appears in J.R.R.
Tolkien's "The Lord of the Rings" and in Herman Melville's "Billy
Budd," and can be traced as far back as the 14th Century.

"Handsome is as handsome does" basically means that true handsomeness
has to do with a person's behavior, not just a handsome face. The
saying is also phrased in the forms "Pretty is as pretty does" and
"Beauty is as beauty does."

Forrest's version of the saying means that stupidity is not just a
surface thing derived from a person's appearance. Stupidity is a
matter of deeds, not looks. Like the other versions, it comes down to
this: judge people by what they do, not by how they appear.

I, for one, get a HUGE kick out of these guys, "Clueless Experts". Specially the ones that can't spell and drift off topic. :) If it weren't for them we'd only be left with TV for entertainment. The ones that never cleared high school are kinda funny too.

However being dyslexic is really frustrating because people judge harshly on one ability to write.

I was diagnosed as a kid also and called it "dickslesia". Get it? Cuz of my nickname? HaHa. I still swap letters and have to correct almost evetything. Other than this it never interfered too much so I guess ain't so bad.

Actually you can tell this compared to people who are uneducated or just don't try because intelligence does show though.

[fly_boy99]

Funny because I find most uppity "genius" types don't have any sense of humor at all.

ymmv...

[MadMonkey572]

Eh, I prefer learning on my own and admittedly starting from scratch instead of acting as if I'm God's gift to the UAV community.

It's necessary though, since I'm just a high-school educated security officer :p

I do have a masters in BS though.

[lvspark]

I was part of an experimental education program sponsored by the air force, and aced all of my aerospace assignments.


In 4th grade :D

I wrote plasma current control diagnostics for tokamak fusion reactor
(one of 6, the only realtime).
DEMO reactor is expected around 2040 (after ITER).

I made 6DOF autopilot without posting a single video on rcgroups.

Now I feel better.

[CenTexFlyer]

Do you expect your fusion reactor to BREAK?!?!?! :eek:

Quarks, anti-matter, and muons, OH MY!!!!

[Jack Crossfire]

Waypoint TRIPLE BINGO!

[got lift?]

I discovered the Neutrino in a homemade lab at the age of four. In 1975 I built the world’s first flat panel television using 40 light bright sets and a water driven reactive plasma engine (which I also invented). I have scored more symphonies than both Beethoven and Bach combined and I have won the America’s Cup 5 times in a row with an invisible carbon fiber sailing yacht that I built from scratch. But even with all of that under my belt I still have to buy RTF because I’m not as smart as you guys…

; )

[crashsiegel]

I am not sure if I am incredibly smart or incredibly stupid.
See, I invented women. :)
There were unplanned and unforseen consequences! :eek:
Sorry,

P.S. I did not invent the bra.

I met my congressman

[smh20502]

Wow, I met a congressman, walked through the White House got a personal tour of the Washington Memorial.

Oh, and I invented those little ultrasonic sensors on your bumpers back in the late 80's. Also, invented a robotic gun at the same time.

Gore didn't invent the internet...I did. He stole my idea

I also invented the fart knocker! :D

[Gary Mortimer]

Whats a fart knocker?? Sounds like an important breakthrough, to well maybe stop the breakthrough I must admit I am at once humbled at your device and yet miffed because yes I invented the fart and most bodily functions.

[smh20502]

How do I explain a fart knocker...
Well, it depends on if your wife or girlfriend has gas. If she doesn't it can't work...but you can practice. :D
If she does, have her get in the shower, clean up a bit....you can follow her in there if you want but it doesn't matter.

You must be aroused to do this.
Bend her over and tell her to slowly start farting. While aroused you'll, well...start knocking on the back door. :eek:

You can also do this with out starting the fart. it's called a ghost fart knocker. Simply done by entering the back door when gas if available.


Is it wrong to crack yourself up?

Got you all beat! I invented the airplane..... They stole my idea!

[Gary Mortimer]

You'd have gone nowhere without my other invention that modesty barely lets me mention.

I invented the sky.

You try flying your airplane without it.

[BeefStake]

I invented the the fundamental particles of the universe, try making your sky without them.

[smh20502]

I hate to brag but I see now that I must.

I invented space. Actually it's the space particle that sits in what some call Dark energy of which I invented as well. God and I were talking some years ago on how to make all matter possible to which I replied that everything needs to be a wave or fluctuation of pure energy. Pure energy is simply a wave that travels along the Dark energy fluctuations, an idea that was theorized and put into practice.

Now, string theory is loosely based on my invention.

I also invented time travel. A process by which baryonic matter is converted to baryonic energy traveling between space particles to a lower level or higher level of Dark energy fluctuations.

Oh, and almost forgot...a byproduct of my inventions is gravity...which is seen as a result of and not an actual energy itself, (there are no gravity waves). Yes, all the theoretical physics have it wrong.

[Gary Mortimer]

Try making any of that without coffee, yes you guessed it.

[smh20502]

Yea, I'll have to concede...I had coffee beforehand... so whom ever invented it here...you win on that one.

Tried to invent dark matter with out it and all I got was the current version of quantum physics...and we all know what happened with that.

[crashsiegel]

I can see there are many smart capable folks here.
And I stand in awe of many of your inventions.
But still without my invention of women, things would be really boring around here! :eek:
