Ever met "educated"/ people with degrees that felt they knew it all but they are actually stupid?

unfortunately yes

I have 2 masters degrees. The thing it's taught me is how much I don't know lol

Book smart, common sense stupid I believe is the saying.

I'm dealing with one of those now on another post!

i've worked with Neurosurgeons. They're brilliant at what they do but absolutely shit when it comes to being a human being.

All the "book knowledge" in the world is useless if someone doesn't have the common sense, experience, and wisdom to use it. I have seen many times where people with high school or less educations and had common sense and life experience have run circles around people who had high IQ's and college degrees. Albert Einstein figured out the theory of relativity but couldn't even tie his own shoes.

Educated derelicts, one of my uncles called them. Lots of academic knowledge, no practical knowledge. 🙄

Oh yes, plenty like that! I always say you have to have gone to college to be that stupid.

Every given gay!

yep, pretty much anyone under 25-30; how little they know... 90% of their college education is just a bunch of useless crap with no bearing in the real world...

It fades (the bother of it) as you get older....basically you learn to ignore or avoid people like that.

This isn't actually all that common. The less educated folks like to think it is. Maybe it makes them feel better?

I've known some with high level degrees that struggle in day to day life activities. I've known others that didn't have the formal education that have simply amazed me at what they knew or could do.

Nothing wrong with education if you can understand how to apply it. But it should never be a measuring stick used to value one's being over another.

my ex had trouble changing a light bulb

I think a lot of people like the identity of it. Its like they've gotta talk crap to convince themselves they're that thing rather than actually be an experienced and wise person.
There are plenty of self proclaimed intelligent people who don't have self awareness and are hypocritical and unable to think critically.

Literally all the time

what you state is a fact since they have had little interaction with people while they concentrated in their studies

I've met plenty of highly intelligent people that have no common sense.

Every MBA or MBA candidate I’ve ever met.

Yeah... it's a bigger epidemic than the current crisis.

It shows college is a total waste of time for many.

YES

And many lack the sense to come out of the rain

often!

Yes, Democrats.
