I hate geniuses!

[Kamikaze Pilot]

I hate geniuses. I hate scientists, mathematicians, chess champions, prodigious engineers, prodigious economists and other technical prodigies. Earlier when I hadn't met one (or thought that I hadn't) I guessed being in the company of a genius would be riveting, thrilling, exciting etc. Like watching 1978 movie ‘Don’, reading the entertaining excerpts of the novel 'One Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovich' (by Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn), listening to great music etc. I had incorrectly thought that their presence is something worth looking forward to in life. But the reality really seems to be different. Now I know the feel of a company of a genius may be no better than workplace banality. I had presumed meeting a genius would be fun. But meeting with genius turned out to be an ordinary experience. It was not much pleasure.

maybe your genius was just an ordinary guy who got lucky.

Sure, not everyone is perfect.

 

[Well.wisher]

I have only met one genius in my life and he was a very simple innocent person .
A person should have good manners and should be kind nd humble , other things dont matter .

Well, since you made such effort to ask me I will oblige you despite the fact that I am up to my eyeballs in work. Okay. Meeting a genious is far from ordinary. It might not be fun depending on how you define fun. Genius is not ordinary. It is craziness. It is unpredictable. It is weird. it is unique. It is ever more quest to seek the extrad-ordinary. The urge to walk on path differant from others even when there is no good reason to do it. There is even element of madness or eccentricity. Expect the unexpected. If you can cope with episodes of madness mixed with boring normality you will enjoy your time with a genious. While the ride lasts because it won't last for long. Because they are always flawed.

You might ask how do I know? Well I have honour of living with one.

I hope the unpredictability.. the unexpectedness.. are in a positive and pleasant way.

I have experienced unpredictability and unexpectedness in a negative and odious way on more than one occasions.

 

[livingdead]

some genius are annoying and unsocial, may be because many of them are on the higher end of spectrum? I hope the annoyance is not due to jealousy or the realization that no matter how much you try, you wont be as good.
Anyway, why should I expect company of genius to be some special experience?

The experience was pretty normal. But you didnt explain why you hate them?

And geniuses aren't born, they are made through practice, hard work , discipline and perseverance. And everyone is a genius, one just need a 'lensing' effect to focus on a definite discipline.

It's nice to hear that, but it's not true. You are talking about experts, not geniuses. Geniuses are born.

Geniuses are generally not neurotypical. Einstein's brain was studied and found to be somewhat different from what is expected to be a 'normal' brain.
