Also, how can one tell if they have these traits? I thought that unless someone else confirms it then it's pretty much just self-flattery.
EDIT: Wouldn't this fit better on a feed instead of a thread?

Ok, how do I know that...
Everyone says me a book-worm.
My aunt once had a competition for word-meanings. She just asked the words randomly from the dictionary. She chose out words which no one in tye house knew(including herself) and I could answer them all correctly.
I am proud of the 65 books in my bookshelf.
I can do things which no one can in my class (eg. Writing out a 14 page and still on story in the five minute breaks I get after studies everyday).
Everyone says that I'm a daydreamer.
And I had those superheroes as my playmates in playschool...
Okay, for reals now. The whole idea behind this thread is rather... iffy, for lack of a better word. Trying to divide people based on "intelligence" and basically saying that you're too good for the people who fail this 'test', or whatever I should call it, is rather distasteful. Especially since we have no idea where you got this criteria for "intelligence", not to mention "intelligence" can be rather subjective in the first place. (Furthermore, there can be a lot of different kinds of "intelligence".)
And if you're looking for "intelligent" people to speak with, it would be a good idea to check your grammar before posting.
I'm not trying to attack you (TheBritishChespin) personally, I just really don't like what this thread stands for. I don't think dividing people based on any trait, especially on a harmless kid-friendly website where you adopt pokemons, is a good idea. Just saying.
I'm sorry if I came off aggressive or mean, that was not my intention. Hopefully I didn't ruin your day.
