Stupid, but, happy
« on: June 29, 2014, 10:00:42 PM »
I see stupid people everyday that are happy. There is a guy at the local WalMart who pushes carts for a living. He's 35, he's, well, dumb as shit, and happy as a clam. Is it possible that being intelligent makes it harder to be happy? How would you get just the right amount of brain damage?

DUmmies claim to be geniuses, and they're all miserable.

Don,

Please define "happiness".  What do you mean when you use the word "happy"?

“The national budget must be balanced. The public debt must be reduced; the arrogance of the authorities must be moderated and controlled. Payments to foreign governments must be reduced, if the nation doesn't want to go bankrupt. People must again learn to work, instead of living on public assistance.”

        -- Marcus Tullius Cicero, 55 BC (106-43 BC)
