You're supposed to respect somebody regardless of their educational background. Why don't you take some of this energy that you're using to gloat, and instead educate some of these dames. You can introduce them to music in a way that other people haven't. Perhaps you'll inspire them to study it for themselves, or at least appreciate music on a different level.
The problem isn't "everbody else" and their lack of intelligence. They just don't like the same shit you do. The main problem is your attitude towards these kids. Just be cool to them. Not every person you meet is going to challenge you in the ways you might expect. Sounds like these people are challenging you to be a more patient person, and to look for the best that each person has to offer. Otherwise, you'll end up a self proclaimed genius, completely introverted, living in the middle of nowhere, away from everybody.
So some kids at your school suck at piano and haven't studied music theory. So fucking what? Quit acting so misunderstood and unappreciated. It's not like you're the next JS Bach or something.
There's nowhere I can't reach.
