I am, too, like the author, very rational and almost always correct, and like the author, I find it hard to understand why irrational ego-driven people who are clearly wrong cannot take my wisdom in stride, or why the room often sides with them.

It's such a burden to be always intellectually superior. If only ideas triumphed over base human emotions!

I'll apply my vast intellect to solving this riddle.
