Don't you mean, "synecdoche?"

That is how superflouslyme spelt it, "synecdoche". I will have to check.
I spelled it however Google spelled it.
The fact that you remembered I spelled a word wrong however many eons ago is disconcerting.

Sorry about that. You did spell it correctly according to the Oxford English Dictionary which is the authority on this matter. I have a really good memory, and remember all sorts of stuff. One thing I obviously did not remember is how to spell "synecdoche".

I am highly intelligent-in fact a member of Mensa. This alienates me, I've discovered my own mother avoids conversation with me because of my vocabulary (WTF?!?!) :
OOOOoooo, I'm jealous. Though of course, with great intelligence comes great..... um, I'm not sure. Insight and therefore depression. Lol. At least in my understanding.
But still, I'm jealous
Do you see other human beings as silly little ants worthy of being crushed?
Just kidding.

Not at all.
Indeed, cognizance is a burden, acuity hurts.

I'm alive, although I'm not necessarily happy about it.
Maybe... I'm somehow still compassionate towards others? I can't say I've ever gotten anything positive out of it, but it's supposedly a positive trait. I'm the only one at work who doesn't feel "forced" to put on a smiling face towards customers. Then again, anxiety's nervous smile kind of does that work for me. >.>

Oooh. Cool! Sometimes intelligence can be a burden of sorts. I obviously wouldn't know, but I've heard that highly intelligent people have a hard time relating and making connections to the rest of us. This could all be poppycock, though. What do you think?

Why do I detect sarcasm?
It is true. I have a really hard time relating to others, and others find me didactic. I am, however, good at keeping myself entertained. You might call it a double edged sword. I live in a fascinating microcosm of my own design, but it leaves me terrible isolated. I am happy inside my mind, but when I turn away from my inner world and look around me I am so alone, and it scares the crap out of me. I go out less & less.

My ability to tune out my depression for a bit by indulging in some junk food while surfing the net or while curled up in my bed watching the animal channel.
Okay, so maybe that's not such a good thing....

^ Hey I do this too. Not while watching the animal channel though. I just indulge in junk food and surf the web... Or I watch a funny show/movie. Works every time.
