Hey, that's super. But you still lack the reading comprehension skills to understand what Nordlys is saying (in an oh-so-adorable pedantic fashion). Or you're just an annoying git. Which is it?
Clearly this can't be the case, but that is the whole point isn't it? I'm trying to be full of myself. 😛
edit: within this though, I don't know why I am so brilliant.
Hope that explains my reasoning better. 🙂

1. If he was indeed brilliant, as he claims, then he would know the answer to the question prior to asking it.
2. If he is not as brilliant, as he claims and as others have pointed out, then he is either terribly misguided or fishing for a compliment.
3. If he is misguided, then we straighten him out and tell him that he is not brilliant.
4. If he was fishing for a compliment, we tell him nice try, thank you very much for playing.
So, we have ruled out number 1, assumed number 2, applied number 3 and ridiculed him with number 4.
Class dismissed. 😛😉😀🙄:'(😕

edit: Clearly it would be difficult to know all of the reasons, some of them may be quite subtle and difficult for someone with them to notice them, whilst the others, well, you certainly wouldn't know which are the most important for making you brilliant
Originally posted by Bad wolfOkay, I'll give up explaining it.

Originally posted by Bad wolfNope. You see, if you were brilliant, you would have ascertained that you could not get the answer from me without suffering death. Therefore, the fact that you are still alive would seem to indicate that you do not know the truth and that it truly is out there....somewhere. But, you can rest assured, you are not brilliant!!!!!
So you've given up too. 😛
I win.
edit: which makes me brilliant. 😀
There's my reason. 🙂

Geez, I cannot read minds. 😕
