Do You Feel Smupid?

Even at the best of times, I have often felt that I am smupid. I am mentally capable of feeling smart but often times know that I am stupid at other things. I am a smart individual, because I can read, write, speak, form an argument, but at the best of times... When called for, my mathematics skills are average at best, so how can I say that I am a smart individual when I can't make simple math equation equal the right answer?

The simple answer: I am smupid. Smart, stupid.

I didn't know what the term was until I read an article over at BBC's website called 'A Glossary for the 21st Century'. I was going to laugh thinking it was one going to tell me about selfie, booty - I can't think of anymore because I'm not versed in the language of teenagehood anymore at twenty-two years of age. But, I was wrong, it opened my eyes up to one very simple word that now seems to obvious.

Are you Smupid, and don't even know it?
or
Are you aware and that makes you even more smupid because you've acknowledged it but couldn't come up with a name for it?
