Lobotomy sounds so good sometimes

I have a dichotomy in my head. Half of the time, I like being so perceptive. I like to experience the nuances that come with the everyday experience, the subtleties that most people don't get. But being too smart can be bad for your health. And that means that I get bruised a lot more than normal people. I see people's disdain, the cruelty, the coldness. And it is in moments like these that I wish I could shut down most of my brain down. Being too smart for my own good is a pain in the butt. It hurts, bad.
