<p>In normal conversations- No.</p>
<p>People always say I look confused when I’m actually tired or on automode. I guess they think I’m stupid when I’m actually very conscious.</p>
<p>Go ahead, Cela :b what did you say you wanted your nickname to be? Cela just does not have the greatest ring. :D</p>
<p>So that CC facebook users could see the dangers…duhh 
I am not asking y’all to disable your account, just be aware.</p>
<p>I suppose we can just let an “alternative” nickname form itself</p>
<p>Hmm…I will find one soon…not yet, though. I am not creative when tired.</p>
<p>Depends on who I am talking to. I like to act smart around certain people and stupid around others.</p>
<p>Would you find the nickname “CPA” to be preferable?</p>
<p>^ I like the sound of that. [:</p>
<p>I do too =)</p>
<p>I find CPA acceptable</p>
<p>I find it appeasing ^_^</p>
<p>
This.
Though I do have to admit my attempts at getting to be more normal…* normal * …have often gone overboard and I’ve come off as a complete ditz. Bah.</p>
<p>Nah. I wouldn’t talk to someone if I felt the need to dumb myself down in the first place. I joke around and chill with all my friends. That means my friends who take all “easy” classes and those who take 5 APs.</p>
<p>No. I mean, I don’t go around talking about my AP courses or crap like that, but I don’t purposefully try to seem dumber than I am.</p>
<p>Sometimes acting like a ditz in fun though. Although not always.</p>
<p>every day. i find it is easier to just blend in rather than try and explain my natural awkward/geekiness. </p>
<p>and then these people are always surprised when i get straight A’s.</p>
<p>I do. Then when I get high test grades, everyone says I’m a cheater because I rarely do my homework or class work. :/</p>
<p>Nope. Acting like a ditz occasionally =/= dumbing down. In fact the only time I seem “intelligent” is online, cos I can actually collect my thoughts into coherency. 
I’m just, like, normal/myself during conversations; no point in dumbing down o.O</p>
<p>^^ that post was not written very intelligently
jk</p>
<p>I guess i’m not very good at it, cause even when I did this people still called me a nerd… o.O</p>
<p>Yes, but only in one respect… Having amazing memory in the advent of facebook, has often led to accusations that I’m a facebook stalker. Thus I have occasionally feigned ignorance of things that I already know</p>
<p>Not very much I don’t think. I’ve probably said that I’m worse at math than I am, but that’s more like being self-deprecating than dumbing myself down.</p>
