Not That Smart

Not Only does This get my goat; but my Tiger, my lion, my ape, and entire jungle! Having people use their "intelligence" to make you feel stupid. A two-year old child's smile can solve more problems Than one Sentence that comes out of their Mouths! A certain desire to Reach out and choke them into silence overwhelms me at times; but, knowing That not answering them can shut them up is the "smartest" thing to do.

It's hard to "suffer fools lightly" but you hvae the correct path, commenting on their actions merely gives them the attention they want. A soft smile will usually get the point across to them. Light 7 love
