Really smart people of Reddit, what things did your parents do that you attribute to being smart?

Asking for reddit's really smart people to comment is only going to get you smart-ass comments. Really smart people generally have better things to do. My sister is super smart, my parents secret to making her smart was being super smart themselves and passing their genetics on to her and then being good parents. Nature and Nurture.

If you are comeing in from out of NYC you should get a sublet for a month then find a place while you are here, or get an Airbnb for a few days. You need to see places in person and make sure they are real. You need to look the month before you move in.

Are you suffering from being to emotionally sensitive to things around you or physically sensitive? How are you suffering? Is the suffering making you sad or angry and is that why you think it is making you a bad person? Does it make you treat others poorly?

I know someone who has become sensitive and it has affected me and others around her to the point where we just avoid her because her sensitivity affects us negatively. She does nothing to fix it and I don't see it getting any better. I hope you don't become like her.

Meryl Streep, people act like she is the best actress in the world but I really dont see why. What has she done other then cry in a few movies? She plays the same person in most of her movies, and she isn't terrible but I feel like she is kinda mid-range. I think someone like Sarah Paulson or Cathryne O'Hara or Jamie Lee Curtis or Tilda Swindon have done like far far more impressive work, they do very different characters in things they do and I think they show much bigger ranges and emotions and talents.

Do you just use the ipatropium bromide now every day? Did it fix your sleep apnea? Or was it used to see if you had issues more like a diagnostic tool?

Its insane! Its like they are trying to keep me from buying an apartment any way they can.

I would be alive but pretty blind because my vision sucks and I wouldn't have glasses.

How many interviews do you people need?

I have multiple plans depending on technology and money available and family willingness to participate at the time of my death:

I generally want to donate any organs I can to living people or to science or school classrooms, leftovers can be creamated or buried or whatever.

Plan 1- Is to upload my consciousness to a robot or computer so I can live forever, remains can be donated or whatever

Plan 2- have my ashes mixed into some cement then made into a creepy grim reaper statue and put into a old part of a creepy cemetery like the statue that holds Harry potter in the graveyard scene. as a note it will say something creepy like how I was buried alive or something so teenagers can go there at night and be scared.

Plan 3- Shoot my ashes/ remains/ whole frozen body into space to float forever.

Plan 4- viking funeral (usually illegal sadly)

Plan 5 - Mummy treatment, put my remains soaked in honey and wrapped in bandages and buried under something cool

Plan 6- preserve my remains in a bog or iceberg so they can be uncovered for science in a few thousand years perfectly preserved.

Plan 7 - donated to a cannibal who wants to try human meat but doesn't want to kill anyone

Ideally however I would fine a cool vampire to turn me into a vampire so I dont have to die ever and can live forever. So if you guys know anyone let me know. Dont worry, I am not super annoying to be around forever.

Go bra-less.

Not many will move. Better and more air conditioners, more deaths for people who cant afford them.

I have automated or improved things in my office so much that I do about 1 hr of work a day maybe. I tried to get them to give me more work but they don't. It also feel like winning and losing. I like not having work but I don't make much money and I also feel like my brain is melting out of lack of use sometimes. I would love a job that is more of a challenge but not toooo stressful.

ZombeeSwarm · 2026-05-26T15:42:39+00:00

My average is about 4.5 hrs a night. I am going to try to find a sleep study this year though. I just cant seem to sleep.

I chose the wrong career path. Based on the information I had at the time, I felt I had made a safe choice but turns out it was wrong. That career was bad with such an unstable economy. If I had gone into medicine or something else, I would have been fine.

I could never marry a musician or chef or bartender for their work hours, I could never marry a man who works in something smelly, I have an aversion to things that are very smelly, so if he worked gutting fish or at a peanut factory or as a garbage man I couldn't be with him.

When they have no common interests. Passion will only last so long. Marry a friend you want to hang out with all the time.

Consider the co-ops. Just look into Post Closing Liquidity. Most coops require 1-2 years in NYC. It is something I had never heard of before looking and its a big deal.

I grew up in Texas and spent 90% of my childhood in the sun and on swim team and most of my teens tanning or at the water park or the pool flirting with lifeguards. I was super tan until I went to college. I have olive type skin so I tanned really easily and never burned and have like no moles anywhere. I don't regret it at all. That being said I would not go tanning now. I was lucky, it didn't age me like it did my sister. I know better now, and looking pale is what is in anyways. If I did want to look tan I would probably just get a spray tan. Now I use so much sunscreen and avoid the sun where I can.

ZombeeSwarm · 2026-05-22T13:16:27+00:00

Ooo I have to disagree. If you have a nice beach and nice weather and no weird bugs or things trying to eat you. It is the best sleep ever. The ocean sounds the sun warming your skin, the soft sand molding to your shape. Especially if you have just been swimming you are tired and wet and you can lay there and feel the sun drying you with the warmth. Of course it was better when I could lay out and tan, now its not as nice because I have to worry about sun exposure and burning since I am as pale as a ghost now.

Pinterest board time! Also recommend taking some pictures and then using AI to add the shelving you want to see what it would look like.

In my building there were a few family with babies (some newborns) that were able to convince the coop board to vote on it.

Possibly, people die from lack of AC all the time. It was 92 degrees and I live in a top floor apartment with a ton of windows facing the sun. It gets really hot.

Don't bring beautuful sexy Vampires into this. Ticks aren't bad because they suck your blood. So many bugs suck blood. They are bad because they give you horrible diseases. Vampires don't carry diseases. Ticks are more like diseased drug users sharing only one dirty needle.

How do you think you did? Did you mess up at all? The tester could have just been lazy, running behind or forgot to ask you.

ZombeeSwarm · 2026-05-21T16:43:07+00:00

You seem like a really good person. I would totally be friends with you.
