I actually think in a social situation that most smart people would really be there with purpose and when I say with purpose I mean they would be there just for the purpose of the event and socializing so I do agree with you when you say most intellectual people will ask questions because they won't feel they have something to prove by just speaking out of turn basically when people speak out of turn these are the more attention-seeking people who in my opinion just actually want to be visible in a crowd. To be visible in a crowd means absolutely nothing especially when you're bragging about all of your credentials but your numbers are not adding up if you were really as smart as some people portrayed their self to be than their life would reflect their intelligence. Really intellectual people's accomplishments will speak for themselves and people will tend to want to ask them their opinion on subjects as opposed to them just imposing their opinion on a multitude of subjects that they know nothing about.
