The worst kind of idiot is not the idiot, per se, for we all – myself included - have our moments of idiocy. The worst kind of idiot is the idiot who thinks he’s really, really smart. (A digression: From time to time I am accused of thinking I’m really smart, despite the fact that I’ve never asserted this. Nor would I. In fact, I think I am of average intellect. I am, however, glib and quite opinionated and some confuse these with my thinking I’m really smart. Never forget, I do the mail at work.)
Now, as for who thinks he’s really, really smart? A few hints:
“I have the best words.”
“Nobody knows the tax code better than I do. OK. I know it better. I’m the king of the tax code.”
“I consult myself on foreign policy.”
“I know more about ISIS than the generals do, believe me.”
Resting my case…
