He could be onto something

Well at least you've got one thing going for you.

Sounds like a challenge to me

"Thanks, Dad."

At least he didn't follow that up with "appearances can be deceiving".... but seriously, OP, it sounds like you still have a chance to impress the guy if you bust your ass.

He kinda did imply it though.

Well maybe just maybe you do dumb stuff that puts your intelligence in question. But hey thats just my opinion.

Smart from far, but far from smart.

Wow, what a jerk. I'm sure you are very intelligent OP. (: time to show your boss wit you're made of! I hope everything gets better, you can do it!

Does the second best comment seriously have negative score? What.

Time to create an air of mystery around yourself, never say anything, just hang out looking intelligent! Or take your intelligent face elsewhere. Good luck op
