Degree does not equal intelligence
Like many people, especially people with college degrees, you mistake an education for intelligence. I have a friend who can't read, but never play poker with him. He will burn you so fast.
Nearby is a small town with a top 10, US college, average citizen is student or college grad. I always love when I go to the local brew-pub on Saturdays. I get there 10 minutes early, 1st on in the door, (after 20 years, no amount of bribery secures a place) to secure the best seat at the bar. While people wait to enter, 11 am minus a few minutes, college kids/grads knock me out of the way to grab the door, only to find it locked. Then they look around, see 50 people, and say, "it's not open yet?" (NO SHIT SHERLOCK!)
As I sometimes think, " no dumbshit," I usually just say " they open in X minutes." If a friend is nearby, I make a rude comment on rude/stupid people, but they're too stupid/arrogant to get a clue. Comes from living in "Johnson County, Kansas" (said with a Thearstion Howell The III accent).
