Feel free to post about moments that made YOU feel like the genius in the room.

The vast majority of people who fall under the broad category of "average intelligence" do not make you feel like a genius. They simply point out the dearth of knowledge in America today. Personally, I find only frustration with the average moron.
If you want to have a conversation that makes you feel smarter, have it with someone who is clearly more intelligent than you are. There are a couple of folks on here, one in particular, that force you to really think deeply and write with precision. These are the people to effect an increase in "smarter".
