R U born stupid? I was thinking about something, as non-stupid people frequently do. Is stupidity genetic, or could it perhaps be the result of socialisation in an environment, for example the org, where those around you are stupid?
Is stupidity therefore a learnt skill? Could learning a skill demonstrate an absence of stupidity and therefore intelligence? Would a stupid person understand that last question? Note: For those of you who are stupid, this post is available via orgnote in alphabetti-spaghetti form with all the challenging words taken out. ... [Edited 11/9/04 6:47am] | |

serious answer is all it is genetic, social and environmental, far to complex to point to one deciding factor. | |

it's very stupidist, i take offence to everything you have said The superlative for stupid is 'most stupid'. Were there to be such a superlative as the one you were attempting to construct, it would take the -est ending. I'll send you the orgnote version.
