No actually, it's not cool to be dumb. Why? Because being dumb means you can't develop your skills; it means you can't be a rounded person; it means you can't be open-minded; it means your employment prospects will be seriously curtailed; it means you life opportunities will be compromised greatly. As Ashton Kutcher said:
“The sexiest thing in the entire world is being really smart. And being thoughtful. And being generous. Everything else is crap!”
