So yesterday at school my math teacher gave everyone a math quiz. I was away yesterday so I had to do the quiz today. I knew that I should of studied more (which means more then about 2 minutes) but there are always other things I want to do and since I thought I would do good I just put it off to the side. I get to school today and the person that sits beside me in Comp Science class (and is also in my math class) tells me that the quiz was easy and that I shouldn't worry about it. So math class finally comes and I get the quiz...and I can't remember anything. I sat there most of the time thinking about how to answer the questions but nothing seemed to come to me. So I hand in the quiz and when I get it back...6/12! 50% is a pass, but not a good pass. Anyway the moral of the story is to STUDY*.

So when do you feel dumb about something that you've done?

I generally feel dumb after hacking away at a problem for a few hours/days/weeks and finding a simple solution to said problem.

Or, even better, when I give the wrong answer to a question I knew the answer to (due to uncertainty.)

I feel stupid when I can see a person in my head, know what service they perform or what they do (or did) for a living, and draw a complete blank on what their name is. This happened to me for two different people last night...

Sometimes I just can't convince myself that I'm right. Like I have something like 4 - 6 and I know immediately it's -2, but for some reason I just can't seem to convince myself it really is.

I feel this way when I find myself arguing with a moron or ignorant person.
I also feel this way when someone who doesn't know me well, keeps trying to tell me how big of a retard I am.
Meh, I only feel stupid when I'm around stupid.

I usually don't study (or at least very much) so I thought I wouldn't do to bad. Also The math I'm taking now is supposedly harder than next years math (my math teacher who teaches it said that).

When your game feezes up and your last save was 2 hours ago, heck, you never even saved. BACK TO THE BEGGINING!

Thank God for automatic backups.

Also, spending 15 minutes trying to figure out how a math question can possibly make sense only to realize you copied it wrong or added when you should have subtracted.

Or pretty much any time I do math assignments.

"s"?

Blah, me too.

Other than copying mistakes, math = easy.

I feel stupid when, during the wonderful Geometry proofs I get stuck on giving a simple reason that should be "Segment addition postulate" or something.

I feel dumb all the time; I dont really shine in any subject in school, my skills with hacking are close to zero and I often embarrase myself.

*sigh*

Or maybe just then, when I forget to save...

I felt pretty stupid when I realized I was trying to save 32 gigabytes to a 30 gig drive.

What we need is a way to repartition separate drives as if they are one.
