Praneet and his pseudo intelligence - Page 2

I can't name all the dialects for sure. But if a new dialect was added into the official list and it was in the front page of all the newspapers for days, that too when I was an adult, then I'll surely know it.

But then again I don't pretend it be intelligent or well informed.

Cmon! Jharkand becoming its own state was a big deal for India. Not knowing it is not acceptable. If you think that's acceptable then even Tanna's answers and Alia's on KWK must also be considered acceptable.

How is that related to intelligence? I think you don't know the meaning of intelligence. It is about a person's ability to analyse, use logic, creativity etc.

Not knowing something is simply ignorance or forgetfulness, depending on whether he knew it before or not.

Being intelligent and being knowledgeable are completely different traits. There are a lot of people who are extremely knowledgeable but also extremely dumb and also the other way round.

I haven't seen the live feed and by watching the episodes I haven't had an impression that Praneet is particularly intelligent. But his not knowing some fact (no matter how trivial it is) has nothing to with someone's intelligence. He may be dumb but not knowing Jharkhand's capital has nothing to do with it.

So you can't name the languages after saying that 'everyone should know everything about this country...basic facts'. They are basic facts even though they are not current affairs, which you keep emphasizing on...but that doesn't take their importance away.

I rest my case. Thanks!

So becoz he is intelligent that means he is suppose to know everything

What nonsense? I have lot of knowledge in mythology, universal laws but I m zero knowledge about politics. So ur going to bash me for it. On the contrary u should be appreciating for what I know. We are all humans, there is not a single person in world who knows everything becoz there is always something more to learn in life.

This reason is stupid reason to bash.

As you said,you haven't appreciated either his intelligence or knowledge.

Now,how does that make anyone pseudo-intelligent?

If he is knowledgable about mangalyaan, he has that knowledge because of his interest in that field.

One may be very knowledgable about one field,which interests him and may have no knowledge in other.

That doesn't make anyone less intelligent.

His inability to name the capital of a state, may be because he couldn't recall it at that moment.

That happens so many times during the exams.When a person is under pressure , he is bound to have selective amnesia.

Not knowing something which happened years back may also be because it was not of relevance to him.

As mentioned before, there are lot of other things that have been in public eye,

How many on the forum can name the political mentor of India's prime minister ?

What is the capital of newly formed Andhra?

Even a homely woman taking care of her family be more intelligent than her husband who is more educated than her.Intellgence and being knowledgeable about a subject are completely different things.

If Praneet gives "gyaan" that is because he has given more importance to developing his moral fibre and was also a part of a show,the subject of which was epitome of moral values.Hence his knowledge in that regard,makes sense.

On the other hand,I haven't found a thing which could make me question his intelligence.

If you have no good reason to appreciate him, you have none to call him anything less,too

hence,your topic loses relevance.

What's your logic? That since you don't know... It's ok for people .. Grown up, educated citizens to not know whether jharkhand is a state or not.

I don't want to lecture you like praneet does. You should know better for yourself.
