is a reference to the subreddit at https://www.reddit.com/r/iamverysmart https://www.reddit.com/r/iamverysmart which points out people describing themselves as very smart, often in ironic ways. I realize now that it may have looked like I was actually making a claim about my own intelligence; I was not.
