Ever try to explain thermodynamics to an ant? Probably haven't on account of multiple reasons, but the one I am after is the differing scales of intellect. Granted, ants are not really perceived to be on the intellectual level we are, but bare with me. It's the best way I can elaborate it to you. In my condescending, rude, and self-indulgent manner, I partake that viewing of difficulty with myself as it pertains to everyone else. You're all ants, and I cannot explain my thoughts to you. You're dumb. I'm smart. It's such a horrifically beautiful illusion of mine, isn't it? Pulled the wool over my eyes, with my own two hands. And yet I have far too many people that agree with the assertion, even if it is never once put to the air of conversation. People look up to me. Ask me questions. Seek me out for answers that they cannot conceive. How did I get this position? Am I actually intelligent, or am I just the manipulator I convince everyone I am? Is it the truth...
