HI.
I don't really know much.
Can't think of new things and reading books is kinda hard.
When people use difficuilt words like "irony" I have to look it up in a dictionary -but then forget it an hour later.
I have no idea about politics, animals, or music groups.
When people talk I always think "huhhh? "
I never really understand jokes until it is explained very clairly.
Basically I don't know much and wouldn't know how to produce anything.
Would you describe me as "dumb"?

I do not think you are dumb, i think you have a wanderlust (meaning the lust to wander), and that you are very fickle (easily changable).
I have a lot of friends are that geniuses and then they talk I go "what the cr*p are they talking about?". It's not that you're not smart, it is that you have a personality that likes to have fun and doesn't seem to be that alert. I don't know how old you are, but if you're a high-schooler, don't worry, you'll learn things as the high-school year goes on. If yer an adult, then you seem to dislike the acedemics and you just enjoy life. Maybe you're imaginative or artistic? I don't know you, you do, and you know who you are, and what you are is not dumb.
My friends tell jokes to me, and they aren't always clear to me either.
If you were dumb, you'd laugh at the joke whether you knew that the cr*p they were saying or not. Here's a quote, "Dumb people don't know they're dumb, because they're too dumb to notice."
You, for thinking that you're "dumb" shows that you have high intellegence. Work it. Pay attention in school the best you can, and work the arts how you please. =)
and about the music groups thing, I'm not very up-to-date either =P

No you are not dumb,it sounds as though you have other things on your mind.This often happens when people are chatting.You would listen and join in if you were interested ,you are bored I think.Join a club ,or make new friends ,take up a new hobbie, sometimes people with dyslexia ,have these problems.

I would describe you as insecure. You sound like you need a little affirmation. To that end, "No, of course you're not dumb honey. Everyone learns differently."

i think if you have to ask.. then you are
(lack of knowledge doesnt necessarily mean you are dumb.. i mean at one point i didnt know what irony meant.. but like you i looked it up and educated myself...
what IS dumb is asking complete strangers label your own intelligence)

what kind of question is this? are you looking for ways to make yourself feel bad about yourself? or is this a hypothetical question meant to criticize people who use words like this?

I don't know that if you're dumb or not unless I talk to you. Why don't you figure it out by yourself?
