oow, true as I find the statement (no offence meant here, just a personal opinion) you might get some trouble with mentioning the bible as a distraction
All of my Likes for "Fantasy Sports" being a trick smart people have played on idiots to get them to play a "Socially acceptable form of Dungeons and Dragons" hahahahaha
Your definition of "smart" people seems to be what most people would call nerds: people who pay attention to details rather than philosophizing on the deeper meaning of things, people who remember lots of data whether it is useful or not, and people who like spending their time doing brainy hobbies which are not necessarily the most constructive or mind-expanding things. These are usually the kind of people who, when asked about a subject, will quote what some journalist or editorial writer said because they lack the gut instincts to direct their intellect on its own. Therefore, they also have difficulty thinking outside the box. Of course, "smartness" is subjective, but mine is not yours. I would call this the "Idiot's Guide to Smarter People."
Was brought here by an ad for this very video. So glad I didn't hit Skip 😀 You're like a friendlier version of ADoseOfBuckley Gonna go watch more vids now. Great job!
This video was stupid and demeaning, I need to figure out a way to block these annoying ass ads that don't seem to be advertising anyone, but rather just simply saying that people are idiots for believing in something. ie religion.
Satire: 1. the use of humor, irony, exaggeration, or ridicule to expose and criticize people's stupidity or vices, particularly in the context of contemporary politics and other topical issues. 2. a play, novel, film, or other work that uses satire Ex: What you just watched was a satire.
Great, but, uh, religion tends to emphasize we're all mortal and are all going to die–it's actually humanism that goes on about immortality and transhumanism, etc.
(Oops, sorry, pointing this out might make me a "smart person".)
P.S. Not religious, but at least try to write jokes that make sense, thanks.
Nice, but I would say it's not guilt but empathy that keeps smart people from enjoying sports, nationalism, and religion. I'm rooting for my team because this is the team I root for. And that other team sucks because I don't root for them. But I don't think the climate is affected by the levels of human snarkiness about the subject.
Always got to throw in a jab at people who are actually capable and open minded enough to understand that the existence of God is not only possible, but is in all likely hood probable and even factual. If you who do not believe in God, are so smart, then answer this question. Where does the wind come from, and where does it go? If you cannot even answer that, then what makes you fools think for a second, that you are all the end all be all king shits of planet fuck all?

Hur Hur yur stupid if u like sportz. Hur hur religin is dumm but so is non religin. Hur hur politiks is juss a bunch of rich folks controllin the govment!
Sports fans are some of the dumbest people on the planet, especially the ones that devote their entire lives and conversations to it. When some idiot starts talking about sports, my mind automatically shuts off and I just want to get away.
I think the only thing that makes me more annoyed when it comes to people talking about sports, are people who state how much they don't care about sports.
Yup! The idea that one should value one's nation over themselves to ensure a better future for the next generation, is just a distraction so one has an excuse to be oblivious. Don't worry though! Pseudo liberal philosophy and dedicating yourself to calling out that one guy who used "homophobic slurs" on the internet is an honorable and just way to live your life. Way to be progressive guys!
I've never liked watching sports, I would rather playing sports myself even tho I suck~ I just don't see the point of watching a bunch of people running around.
This the most pretentious shit i've ever seen on youtube, and that's really saying something. Of course watching sports is a waste of time, so is going to a party, or masterbating, on top of about 80% of the menial shit people do with thier day. That doesn't make them meaningless activities, not everybody spends thier downtime reading shakespear or studying theroitical physics. Please stop acting like you're better than everyone else, although I feel like you're hatred towards sports is due to childhood insecurities. I can tell by your nasally voice that you likely sucked at sports when you were young…
As a somewhat smart person i have to say this : Sport are a pain to watch for my when i am forced too. The first thing is that sports always have the same rules how boring. Second i can not guess what is intresting about watchingsports . Third it is in no way educational so i do not get shown intresting facts.
Perfect ending
I'm dying of FIRST!
I'm going to die?? Yay!
Love your videos.
moo
oow, true as I find the statement (no offence meant here, just a personal opinion)

Did you see that ludicrous display last night?
So, with what team will you always have allegiance until you die? Tell us below!

Edmonton Oilers FTW
Now aware of mortality o.O
Super funny though!
Clever?
smart people don't use twitter.
Tottenham HotSpur for the win!
The sports team from my area is superior to the sports team from your area. (Thank you, Onion.)
That's why the smart money is always on the Green Bay Packers…
This is so fucking fake
The message of this story: 'Don't forget one day you'll be dead, so it doesn't matter!' Can't wait for number three!
Anyone who takes these videos seriously and are offended on how they adress "smart" people are probably idiots themselves
The description to the video sounds so freaking dirty. lol
Whaaaaat? We're all going to die?
We'll, lets see about that, pffff I'm not going to die!!!
Quantifying human intelligence is subjective.
Thumbs up to the writers of this series! Great stuff!
In the NY Giants defense…Megatron..the end.

i watch a lot of youtube
one of the best series i know of
"weather?"
"climate change!"
punching
Was brought here by an ad for this very video.
So glad I didn't hit Skip 😀
You're like a friendlier version of ADoseOfBuckley
Gonna go watch more vids now. Great job!
what's wrong with dying?
i thought this was good, does that make me smart?

Ex: What you just watched was a satire.
IMHO Sport is like sex. Doing it is better than just watching.
It was funny but weather and climate are still not the same thing…
Stopped vidya at rising global temps comment. We are actually in a period of global cooling. Climate change is BS. It's called the fucking weather.
Great, but, uh, religion tends to emphasize we're all mortal and are all going to die–it's actually humanism that goes on about immortality and transhumanism, etc.

omfg I can't stand when people tweet "SPORTSBALL! lol!"
Nice, but I would say it's not guilt but empathy that keeps smart people from enjoying sports, nationalism, and religion. I'm rooting for my team because this is the team I root for. And that other team sucks because I don't root for them. But I don't think the climate is affected by the levels of human snarkiness about the subject.
What's one thing smart people & idiots agree is a good thing? Subscribing to our channel: http://bit.ly/LlHUTM

So you can't enjoy anything without some self-proclaim experts throwing unsolicited knowledge in your face.
Even worse than idiots who watch sports are other idiots who think they're smart because they don't watch sports.
I love Above average.
The more time you spend watching sports each week the lower your IQ is. Google it. BTW, I don't have a twitter.
Absolutely brilliant!!!! How can we share this?
