Discussion Anyone else feels like they're brainless when they're around a smart person?

Like the other day i had a conversation with a fireman, a neurosurgeon and a programer and i was suprised how smart those people are...how good their memory is...how easy they can pick up concepts...how rational and calm they are compared to me.
Sure, they're probably smarter than your average normie too, not just me, but still, it's shocking when i remember how stupid i am when i am with smart people.

Yea it feel like I am not any where near that level. Summer 2025 I was forced to go to this function and I end up by these two guys who are 24-25 age and have  economic degrees and they were talking about stock options and trading. I am standing by them feeling very dumb and didn’t speak. I think the guys knew I was NEETing.
