1 gear is the term for someone who doesn't catch onto jokes quickly, or has no common sense.
This person that inhibits '1 gear' doesn't necessarily have a learning disability, they are just slow on catching on. They are completely aware of their intelligence but it takes them a couple seconds or a couple minutes to realize what is going on in a conversation.
Usually occurs when someone is trying to tell a joke and they don't get it. Or, when the person continues a conversation and the opposite person has no idea what their talking about after the conversation has continued.

Get the Guilty Gearmug. One of those people (man or woman), usually not very athletic, who requires extensive amounts of "gear" for their sport of choice. For example, a biker with the spandex jersey, the spandex shorts, color coordinating helmut, water bottle, and fingerless gloves etc. These guys are usually NOT in shape, which provides us with evidence that they just went out and bought up all of the gear for looks.
