The kids at my school call me dumb.
Acually, in sixth grade, I was more stupid than I am now. Now, kids just laugh at whatever I say! I can't open my moulth without being made fun of.

Yeah people laugh at me whenever I say anything in class. They're all morons anyway, so try not to let it get to you :D

I know, but sometimes it still hurts to know that they all hate me and think that I'm dumb. You're right though. And I'm glad someone can relate.

No, kids at school did not call me dumb. They thought I was very smart and looked up to me for my high intellect.

That's exactly what it was like for me in school; at one point I thought of applying serious thought to replies to things that were said to me before opening my mouth, except the first time I tried it: this smart mouthed creep who had spoken to me and had waited for my reply (which was about half a minute in the making) said "You sure put a lot of thought into what you say" (in a very sarcastic tone; which was what everybody always spoke to me in).

I was embarrassed, and never attempted that again.

Around adults: it's easy to get away with saying very little; as a kid, on the other hand: the other kids would insist that I speak (always with big grins, and expressions of eager anticipation) just so they could make fun of whatever I said (they knew me well enough to know that whatever came out of my mouth: it would be odd enough for them to mock and ridicule).

That's exactly what they do to me. I just couldn't find words to explain it. I only do well on the internet because I can think what I'm going to type before I type it.

I try to keep quiet amongst the humans as much as practical.

People don't call me dumb, but they tend to call me 'ret*d'

I'm pretty smart, actually. I'm in Pre-AP Geometry and Pre-AP Biology.

yes, i relate. my advice: only say smart stuff; be sure to point out when someone does something dumb to remind them who's smart; and make good grades and rub those good grades in their dumb faces. things may change if you do those things.

Nope. I don't go to school, so I don't get called dumb.

It depends. Sometimes I was called a ret*d/dumb, and other times I was called smart. It depended on people's perspective towards me I think.
