I remember that one. I hardly claim to excel in everything, as you claimed. I was pretty specific. It would be vanity if I took excessive pride in my accomplishments. I'm not sure I have. I'm justly proud, but I wonder if it is excessive? Do you have anything to feel justly proud about, or are you just jealous?

I do not chat 24/7. It might seem like that to you, but I multitask. I work on the computer and when I need a little break I come here and relax. I bet I get more done in a week than you do in a month. This is just my estimate, based on what I see people around me get done- andI do not mean to imply I know what you actually do, which may be less or more than what I observe around me. As to what I've gotten done- how can I answer that? If I tell you what I've done you will most assuredly think I am bragging, and if I don't tell you, you'll think whatever it is you think now, which is obviously nasty. Either way you will clearly think unpleasant thoughts about me- so I might as well save my time and let you think whatever it is you think now. It doesn't matter to me, and it will make you happy.

It's not clear to me why exactly you have such an apparent animus toward gifted people.
