If I want to think I'll just have to think. Honing you brain for tasks is the best thing to do, whether you're a genius, or an idiot.

Are you sure you just aren't an outlier. Don't bring the rest of humanity down with you.

just think of it this way

smart humans wouldn't exist if stupid humans didn't exist, either

That's the most stupid thing one can say.

"Can't be beautiful people without ugly people"
Yeah, well, I'd take everyone being a supermodel over some being supermodels, whereas the rest of the population are decent or ugly-looking. Having a symmetrical face, red lips, the right skin tone all matters, because they're a sign of good health. I want to have these signs, and if everyone else had them, we'd all be playing fair.

faces really aren't that symmetrical though
some people naturally don't have red lips
skin tone doesn't even matter really

Just don't type anything at all if you don't wanna spend effort.

Elohel.

Seriously though, a perfectly symmetrical face would be creepy af.

Human teeth are creepy as fuck, but we consider them normal because we're exposed to them. Spiders are creepy as fuck, because our peers/parents react to them when we're small. It doesn't matter if something is creepy as fuck, 'cause the feeling of creepiness is there to help us avoid danger. A perfectly symmetrical face isn't normal, and abnormalities are scary because they are unkowns, and we fear the unkown.

Here's an interesting thought for you then. Take a look at me. I'm never going to be a somebody who builds a technical marvel. I'm not gonna be some genius inventor. Or behind some massive movement or great technology.

Now, look at it this way. Have you ever met somebody, who was really, really god damn smart in their field? Enough that you would consider a genius? I've met a few people. And there's a catch to almost all of them. Did you catch the keywords I used?

"in their field."

You can be a genius, but it comes with a price, it seems. One area of expertise climbs higher than all the others, but all the others are often left behind. To the point that they might even be lower than the average of an arguably simple person.

So, while they have a field of expertise and a base of knowledge in an area in which they will forever be higher than me, be capable of excelling in farther than I ever will, and learning faster in than I ever will, I have benefit of being multi capable.

I'm not a genius. But I can make my own progress based on the work of geniuses before me. I might not reach their height of expertise in one field, but at the same time, I'm not just versed in one field. I'm half versed in multiple fields. I've got bits and pieces of knowledge from all over that allow me not to just to climb one ladder, but multiple ones, at an albiet slower rate than the single ladder a genius or exceptionally smart person would climb.

Which has it's own advantages.

Now take that concept and apply it to yourself. Because it certainly could be applied. Probably to a lot of people here.

I don't buy that. I've met one of the smartest people in my country, but he was more handsome, and generally smarter than me. He had spent his time wisely by reading philosophy, and he was very good at math. He wasn't all serious, and enjoyed normal things as well.

I'm not saying it's an absolute deal here. There's a lot of variables to people. You can have smart folks higher up on the scale who make good all rounders too.
