dumb vs. stupid

hydrojakep · 12-1-2003, 04:46 PM

Are dumb and stupid the same thing? I called one of my friends stupid and then he called me dumb and i was like they are the same thing. He said they arent, later i started asking people and they were like "I dont know".

Thanks

dumb=common sense dumb
stupid=intelligence dumb

(I took this from D&D, Wisdom=common sense, Inteligence=intellectual smart)

you and your friend have retarded arguments...

Then again, I once argued with my friend for 3 days about whether the hand is part of the arm, instead of merely attatched to it, so I really can't talk.

dumb means you are not able to speak. Stupid is just an insult.

dontcareaboutmyid · 12-1-2003, 07:50 PM

yeah flaming when you just get onto the forums will just annoy most of the other members,

VxDx · 12-1-2003, 07:56 PM

Dumb and stupid are the same thing and you are all retarded for not knowing that.

cant get much more on the dime than that, dumb someone just took because it sounded like an insult, dumb means you cant talk.. means people think differently about u, like you are too stupid to talk. I think that when dumb became an insult it is worse than stupid. However, stupid just means not smart, not that bad considering most of the world is illiterate.
