Late last night someone and I were having a conversation about alot of things... one thing that came to topic is
" People with book smarts tend to not have common sense at all!"

now we had a good conversation but here is just a glimpse at why I ended in almost tears laughing

Me- There is even a dude on IA who claims to go to GT but cant accept he gets a ticket because he was speeding, but because of a movie just released

Other- Thats what I am talking about. They know intelligent things way beyond "normal" level but cant have chit chat common sense conversation with a wall

Me- His excuse is "everyone was speeding, who doesnt?"

Her - wow

Me- Its like "when someone takes thier car off the bridge everyone else follows, taht means you do it to right?"

Her - We have a bridge on 85 that goes up like that over the ocean?

Me- just completely blank stare and died ... then

Her - OHHHH I get it... its a saying... but is there a bridge like that on 85?

Me - No... no ocean either

but back to what i want to know... to me its better to have a bit more common sense knowledge and street smarts than complete and total book smarts... right? which would you rather have 90% of... not half and half or anything... cause it seems that way is near hard to find
