Is it normal to dumber get as i older?

I've gradually been getting dumber the last few years. I used to be sharp and quick witted. But the years have dulled my mentalness.
See? that's not even a word.

I used to know about shit. But now I don't know nuthin.

Maybe I was always dumb and only now I realize it.
But I really do think I'm getting dumber and dumber.

did this happens to anyone else?
What do?

    No, I believe you've actually gotten smarter. When I was younger I was under the impression that I knew some shit. Fast forward ten years and it has become crystal clear that I pretty much know nothing. It's that realization that makes you smarter and wiser. It's always the dumbest people who think they really know about anything.

    • It's quite the paradox...or is it a catch-22..? or neither?

      Come to decide that the things that I tried were in my life just to get high on.

    Intelligence is a use or lose it deal. If you use your intelligence on a regular basis, perhaps it will slowly come back. Just know that you'll never use sufficient intelligence here at IIN to accomplish anything.

    • It feels like that. Right now my brain is like a wasted muscle. I hope it's possible to whip it back into shape

        Your brain ages poorly, yet your mind does not. Learn more or face the rotting brain! Don't let it waste, because if you do, you'll be too stupid to regret it.

        That does not even make sense. A site just exists as code on a server and does nothing by itself.

            I got dumber just reading the title of your post which makes no sense at all, so you mightne onto something here. I think you are the cause of our dumbness
