I used to tell my kids when they were growing up to "don't believe your own bs".
Actors are better at pretending than me. Therefore, they're smarter than me.
Singers are better singers than me. Therefore they're smarter me.
Professional ball players are better ball players than me. Therefore, they're smarter than me.
I have more true life experience, and common sense experiences than they. Therefore, I'm smarter than the whole bunch.
