People like JMV and PQQU seem to know everything and it boggles my mind.
Seriously i don't get it  wariodood;

??????

jmv just knows about politics and stuff he reads on reddit
i mean just talk about general psychology and medicine(maybe philosophy but I never really talked about that with him) to him and he'll be like "durr wat"

also ppq has two brains

the shortest route to the sea

I read a lot of books and eat my vegetables!


Um, I know a lot about academic related things because I'm in a very intense academic program, I know a lot about music because that's my main hobby, I know a lot about human rights and politics because I have a personal stake in that, and I know a lot about video games because I was very secluded for a very long time.

It may seem big, but that's actually a pretty limited area. Just as in music: I can talk about any genre with a bit of knowledge and background, and I can talk about instruments on a very superficial level, but beyond that I have a pretty pathetic layer of depth.

The closest I've ever gotten into the Glitch area of things has been the work Venetian Snares has done. It's symphonic in scope at some points, and crazy in other points, but I don't know if Glitch really fits him. IDM, really. He's given me pathways into a lot of artists Like Stunt Rock or Jere, but not any deeper into the real Glitch stuff.

One brain, one body, and a communication breakdown.

well, if nothing else pqqu, you are a very intuitive and intelligent person in general, and basically a genius in the areas that you are best in

Thanks, Kaz. giggle;

I've always considered you more knowledgeable about music, you have a lot wider and subtler tastes than I could hope for.

I think part of it is that they're just more confident in their answers/beliefs than some other people. Mixed with their intelligence of course

Yes.  It's amazing at how much differently people react to people with confidence, like there's a girl in one of the other groups who just oozes confidence when she speaks, I wish I could be like that. saddood;
