Xena | Your views, please. |
lotusheartone | I would think, that as long as your honest..it would be a pleasure to have a clever person live with you! otherwise, they could drive you nuts!lol they figure things out. ... |
Gemini Nymph | Speaking as a clever person, yes. |
AcousticGod | Easier than living with dumb@sses. |
BlueRoamer | I dont' think clever in itself is a problem. It might be a problem for you if you're trying to pull something off. Otherwise, factors like mental illness, anger problems, sloth, substance abuse problems, type A personalities tend to be more problematic. |
teaologist | My easygoing friend told another clever friend: 'Your biggest weakness is your biggest strength---born too smart for yer own good...' or something... >_< |
thirteen | I would say manipulators are hard to live with. Cleverness may be manipulative but maybe not. |
lioneye68 | I agree with AG - dumb@sses are worse, and spitefull a-holes even worse yet. Clever people are handy, especially if there's a conundrum of some sort effecting the household. Clever is good, as long as the person is a NICE person, and not a jerk. |
Gemini Nymph | quote: Clever people are handy, especially there's a conundrum of some sort effecting the household
LOL. Yes that's when we clever folk really shine. I say we're a pain to live with because it's hard for other people to get away with their usual nonsense. But I'm pretty easy to live with othewise. |
SLAYER | If clever people are humble enough not to be bothered being with less clever people, then i dont think there will be any problem. It is a beautiful thing to see that clever people share their wisdom with others. On the other hand, wisecrack-syndrome may lead less clever people doubt clever people's level of intelligence.

Gemini Nymph | Just because someone's clever doesn't mean they possess wisdom. You can take that one to the bank. And if a clever person doesn't possess humilty, they're pretty much their own worst enemy, i.e. "too smart for their own good." |
SLAYER | And i guess you are an example of wisecrack-syndrome Gemini Nymph. Surely it doesnt possess wisdom. |
InLoveWithLife | well well well, we can't be generalizing like that but yes people who think they r too clever might definitely be a pain to live with |
Dulce Luna | A clever person is only a pain to live with if you're trying to pull a fast one on them (And why would you do that anyways?). Otherwise there should be no problems. |
Peri | quote: yes people who think they r too clever
ditto |
