Is it true that even a genius can forget to tie a shoe, trip, and break his neck?
MrM and supposedly he only had one set of clothes, all the same suit, so he wouldn’t have to waste time thinking about what to wear. Interesting man, that.

Completely plausible. When Bill Gates was younger, he would often forget to shower and show up to business meetings looking not so fresh. His mind was too preoccupied with other things.

no.

It could be not only true but more likely..
a genius does not necessarily have a lot of common sense and sometimes are intensely insane to boot.
March 9th, 2010
Yes.
I believe geniuses are actually more accident prone – it’s the whole book smart vs. common sense (street) smart thing.

Yes it is true he can forget because he is human but falling and breaking his neck, there is a slim chance that can happen
March 9th, 2010
haha..yea

Absenth seems to have made genius’ fk up, I’m not sure you have to forget to tie your shoe to "trip" I’m a genius & I like shrooms
March 9th, 2010
Yes, it’s true.

I’d say it was even more likely. Geniuses are usually savants and savants can focus on one thing with near superhuman clarity…while ignoring all else.
Case in Point: Einstein–He really would forget to comb, cut and wash his hair.

I would like to ask ‘An Honest Man’ that question. He is a contact of mine, and at one time he called himself, ‘Darn Near Perfect Genius!’ And he is indeed a Genius; I’ve read his excellent poetry, math & chemistry answers. So he would be the perfect candidate to ask
I venture to think he would answer in the affirmative.
March 9th, 2010
this is true
March 9th, 2010
Absolutely, I thought of Einstein first thing too.
March 9th, 2010
Yup…… thats why I prefer slip-ons…..Most genius types I have met over the years had no common sense. So I can absolutely see a genius falling and breaking his/her neck. :~D
