Yo, my dad does this. And let me just say tone is everything. Sometimes he's not even saying anything particularly intelligent or above anyone's head, but if you're not careful on how you convey yourself people will start calling you a condescending ass.

And people will take that interpretation of you all the way to facebook, where they'll be much more happy to rant at you in full view of everyone with a monitor and a newsfeed.
It starts an ugly ball rolling, so god speed friend I hope you get this figured out. You sound like a nice guy to me.

Make a game out of it! Find new and exciting ways to aleinate people! And get creative, you can try speed rounds, loudest, most chemically induced, or best use of hand pupppets.

As someone said earlier, post the facebook exchange, then we'll judge.

People who are smart/think they are smart/smart relative to the people they associate with often times don't get basic social communication, tone, presentation, ect.

BUT really, bias is often times underestimated in people. You might be the biggest douche-popsicle to walk the earth without knowing it, because it doesn't matter how smart someone is, bias will cloud their judgement as thoroughly as anyone else.

So...pics or it didn't happen? or something.

I kid of course. Sort of.

OT: Yeah, sometimes it's better to detach yourself from a group in search of a better one. The buffer time can actually help you learn who you are more anyway.
