It turns out that trying too hard to sound smart by using big, scholarly sounding words actually makes you sound dumber.
You would be punctilious in assuming that.
That ragged pretense that mistakes estimable leaps of intellectual reticulation as some gaudy varnish of the philosophasters to garner a wider audience is a lapsed error in logic that doesn't resemble the hidebound virtues
of an insurrection against normative virtues of the psilosophy of rejection derived more from the foibles of the specious internment of ideation within neat nexilities as some plumage divorced from substance rather than apportioned with vibrant hues of an itinerant complexity. This work borrows more from polymathy rather than the staid tincture of a subpar and neutered bowdlerization of intellectual endeavor to curb to the refrains against the simpleton rejection of a somber attempt at gravitas contravened by the pinpricks of sardonic rejection

Before anyone tears into the OP, let's try to recognize that it takes a sharp mind to weaponize a thesaurus.

Before anyone tears into the OP, let's try to recognize that it takes a sharp mind to weaponize a thesaurus. Perhaps we could have one of the next big thinkers of ATS if we all remember that most of us sound like this before we learn to tone it down a little and reach out to fellow humans as peers instead of trying to remodel social classes on perceived intellect.
To me it seems like the OP is facing difficulty with someone with a less comprehensive vocabulary. Attempting to segregate one's self with a numerical measurement of perceived intelligence in the title of the thread is pretty indicative of a frustrated young mind seeking solace in others in a time of extreme ignorance.
So how are you doing OP? What's got you down so hard that you need to feel like an alien amongst your own species?
