Ivan Drago is smarter than us*

not dumb, just acts that way

ok, maybe not you, but he's more than likely smarter than I.

(I just made it a collective because i don't like being alone in dumbville)

Why did i just learn that Dolph Lundgren(Ivan Drago in Rocky) is actually brilliant?

I'm doing my normal wikipedia midday boredom surf, one thing leads to another, and i stumble upon Dolph Lundgren's wiki entry. Simple right? Shouldn't be no problems yes? Shouldn't be no mind blowing info or nothing n'est-ce pas?

WRONG.

Apparently Mr. Dolphie - who will be referred to from now on as Mr. Thinks He's So Smart or (MTHSS for short) - graduated from the Royal institute of Technology

Has his master's degree in Chemical Engineering from the University of Sydney (engineering yumm)

and was awarded a Fulbright scholarship(yes fulbright) to MIT(yes MIT)

(sidenote...i almost applied to MIT, but decided i didn't need that kind of ego damaging rejection in my life)

He also speaks five languages.

I've always held this truth to be self evident;

Celebrities(even d-listers) will never be as smart as me.**

Take that GEENA DAVIS
Take that Sharon Stone

Why? Because they are celebs thats why. Everyone knows celebs are stupid. And if they were smart, they would also rule the world. And if they ruled the world we would be subjected to all their dalliances and on-dits all the time on all major news networks. I would know more about Britney spears' last bikini wax than i would about the federal deficit. We couldn't have that could we?

Oh wait.

*blink*

But now...its like everything i once believed in and held as truth is now dying in the face of reality.

Of course, he is European - so there is a curve there, and having lots of book learnin's doesn't necessarily equate intelligence but...

dashitall! all my prevaricating isn't going to change a thing. He's smart, and thats all there is to it.

What's next? Kim Kardashian: Rhodes Scholar?

(if she's the total package i'll just off myself)



* Yes i know standard grammar calls for a we in my subject heading.

** Yes I know that the me should have been I.
