smart idiot

The way of saying a funny sentence and being an idiot while you're throwing some knowledge there.

A: What if the Blackhawks will win by throwing deep overs and then when they go for a touchdown they will go for a run.
B: No don't be a smart idiot, if they get caught while using the run instead of going for a shot for a point they can drop both points.

A smart idiot

One who excells far ahead in school but is rather stupid in the sense that they are close minded and not tolerant of people different than themselves. They often see themselves as better than many other people and judge people solely on their academic achievements and not on their personality or moral values.

The opposite of this is a dumb genius. One who does not do well in school but is very street smart and if he put in effort would do well in school as well.

Guy 1: hey I got an 85 on that paper man it's not too bad what about you?

Guy 2: I got a 96. You're a fucking retard.

Guy 1: at least I'm not a smart idiot
