Awareness (lemmy.nz)

I was reading a comment thread recently.

One commenter stated that they are aware of the people who are "dumber" than them, and if they are not aware the person they are talking to is either similar in intelligence or smarter than they are.

So my question is, do you have this awareness?

Are you conscious of your relative standing in the intelligence hierarchy around you?

And a side point, can you tell a smart person is acting dumb to fit in with those around them?

I try not to assume, I trust people will show their personality naturally.

And for the record, the fact that you are on lemmy shows that you are probably above average.
