I just felt the need to spew my opinion on this gal since I had some time on my hands and nothing productive to say. I tangled with her WAY back in my early days on the SDMB and that didn’t go so well. After being here for almost a year I must admit, that gal is frickin smart. She knows alot about alot of stuff. It seems like any topic that she posts on she has some sort of knowledge on the subject. I see her name pop up in ANY thread, just out of the blue. Shes pretty young too if I remember correctly. Granted, I don’t always agree with her views, but I wish I could write my thoughts out as clearly as she does so I could debate effectivly on this board. Thats why I don’t post in GD or GQ, because even though I have opinions on all that stuff, I can rarely put it into words that don’t get shoved down my throat. I guess I am a lurker who comes out of the shadows just long enough to post about the Simpsons or why Ashley Judd is so hot. 🙂 (As poorly as I tend to express myself, I better make clear that I am NOT being sarcastic in this post. With my luck, people will think I am) ---

I TOTALLY agree with the OP. I am impressed as well, with her wide range of interests. I wish I were more like that at her age. ---

I’d ask her to marry me if I knew I had a chance and the waiting list wasn’t so huge. But I still dream. _\__ ---

“Smart as hell”? How smart exactly is hell? I hope she doesn’t smart _like_ hell, but then she hasn’t hit me… yet. _notes all the marriage proposals_ Well, I guess you don’t need mine… 🆒 ---

I’ll agree that Guinistasia is cool, and also has great taste in vintage fashion, and is a very pretty young lady. I enjoy reading her posts! [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/damn-guinistasia-is-smart-as-hell/102459.md?page=2)
