I was a brilliant child,
I'm wondering what happened.

2. Me. too.
It didn't help.

Oftentimes in life being smarter than the people around you works to your harm.

On the other hand, being an idiot sometimes is beneficial.

Isn't that right, Mr. President?

4. Brilliant child syndrome.
Seriously. I don't know if it's in the books, but it should be.

6. You know.... now that I think about it, it might have been girls
I abandoned book learning for women, but that's before I realized that I wasn't too much of a ladies man.

7. For me too
I am suppose to be so smart but I can't get a good job. I seem to get flustered at learning anything that seems hard to me.
