20 Of The Cringiest Comments From People Who Tried Too Hard To Look Smart

Reddit's /r/iamverysmart is full of people who tried to brag about their intelligence despite no one asking for it, and the results are embarrassing. Whether they're bragging about made-up IQ points or labeling themselves as greatly superior to their spouses, teachers and more, there are a lot of awkward moments to be shared with the rest of us "normal" people who aren't on their level.
The people on this subreddit think they're the most intelligent people in the world. They believe the rest of us are beneath them, often because we dared to make a joke. No, they're not offensive jokes, just jokes that they believe challenge the smarts of other people. But thankfully, these people are such incredible examples of peak human intelligence that they can explain to the rest of us how we're dumb in comparison, usually while making a bunch of typos and adding in some obvious lies. These are some of the funniest times people were caught trying way too hard to look smart.
