Hey, my name’s Zach and I did the comic about the child facing a bleak, immiserated future. You can see more comics on the same theme every day right here at SMBC: [www.smbc-comics.com](https://www.smbc-comics.com)
PS: I have two books out recently, and I’d appreciate if you’d consider looking at them:
Most people who think they are in that blue range are really in the yellow range. To cope with the reality of being average, they envision themselves as a tortured “gifted” person.
Ha, i have crippling ADHD so even though according to tests I am in the blue part I get fucked over so much by my brain that my results in life barely exceed the performance of people in the red part.
I was told I was gifted because I did well on state mandated standardized tests. I swear those tests were designed to make students look smarter than they actually are because I’m dumb as fuck.
Hell, call me the Blue Man Group then
I hate being smart enough to know how dumb I am.
I wish I was dumb enough to think I was smarter than everyone.
Lifelong imposter syndrome! Let’s goooooo!
ouch

[[The epic about kid-life that Neil Gaiman and Lemony Snicket said was good]](https://www.smbc-comics.com/bea/)
80% of us are in the blue part?
Me, every time: “How dare you blatantly post Mr Weinersmith’s comic rather than just linking to his web- wait it’s Zach posting it, nevermind.”
The Salieri Syndrome
This hurts

Too smart to be happy. Too dumb to do anything about it.
I feel called out.
Everyone thinks they’re above average lol
plot twist: They were the results for being idiot
r/aftergifted
This is far too accurate.
Fuuuuuck
Funny how everyone in this comment section thinks it’s about them

Perfect, isn’t it

Gifted = Low Support Autism
Change my mind.
Slightly above average is gifted now?
