That akward moment when you realise that all your funding rejections are not because you're a misunderstood genius, but that you are a very well understood idiot.
Something a lot of academics get to feeling, I'd imagine. Maybe best to strike both 'genius' and 'idiot' from regular usage for a while — and let your feet find ground again?

Pondering on this since reading it I wonder whether you rather meant (to write): ... but because you are considered an idiot.
Once again a fine reason, anyway, to regret that I was / am too lazy to learn English, properly.
Would you like to tell(me/us) more, friend/philosopher?
The peace of the night.
