Is getting caught up in minor trivialities and not grasping high level concepts quickly a sign of a brainlet?

Only brainlets think like this.

I’m talking when autists like you ask a million questions in class when the professor is just trying to explain a concept.

Then you shoulda said so nigga
One of the first days of abstract algebra there were some people asking a million questions about shit they should have already learned in a fundamentals course. No wonder half the class failed the fucking midterm.

Wait is that implying that they're men trapped in bug bodies. Is that hell?

>learn different moments of inertia of different shapes in statics
>huh this is interesting how did they come up with those equations
>spend an hour computing one for a cone in 3 different ways
>wonder if i could just use the formula for a rod and derive the moment of inertia for a disk/circle using that method
>spend an hour doing that (it worked btw, you actually integrate with respect to mass which is nice)
>do shit in other coordinate systems for a few hours
>4 hours later i've successfully studied for something i will not need for the exam
why do i do this to myself

are you me?

why can't I have a brain like this. All I can ever think about is sex and social validation

If you drop out (like I did) this becomes the best part of physics
