Can you elaborate on the over-the-top self-belief humor?
Thank you
๐จ What did they say?!
when you don't know something, saying shit like "despite my infinite wisdom, this eludes me" instead of "sorry i just dont know"
just stuff that stands out, gets a chuckle off of people, but is so obviously exaggerated that people know you don't actually believe that you are infinitely wise.
and the greatest thing is that after a while you also incorporate these phrases when talking about/to others, so when you need help or something, you ask for their infinite wisdom.
(sry for the late answer im not used to getting interactions on social media lol)
