To clarify here, I don’t feel like I’m significantly smarter than most people, but I feel like people have a hard time doing any sort of thinking about stuff. Especially when it comes to verifying “facts.”

    My friend just moved into a new house, and there are no light bulbs anymore. So changing light bulbs is on a trajectory to be like shoeing a horse.

    I never did change a tire, but I have changed a wheel. However most new cars don’t even have a spare wheel.

    A lot of older folks are actually less likely to know how to do laundry with modern textiles and dyes. The only complicated thing is sorting and that can actually be largely skipped now.

    Anyway, 90% of people will agree that 90% of people are dumb, they just won’t agree on which 90%
