    I think I have a problem with negatives.

    So, like, here's an example: I was just scrolling through tumblr and saw a "psychology fact" that intelligent people care less about other people's opinions. I have no idea if the information is true or not, it's just text: "Intelligent people tend to care less about other people's opinions. Psychology fact."

    Naturally, my first thought is, "Oh. I care quite a bit about other people's opinions. Therefore I must not be intelligent."

    Does anybody else have problems with this, where they twist positive things about other people into negative things about themselves? Because I seem to have it in spades.
