“It is better to be the guy who says dumb things than it is to be the shy guy.”
I read this on Cracked today and have to see I definitely see the logic. As someone who has been the shy guy a lot it really doesn’t help you at all in the long run. If you say dumb things at least it can get attention. Plus by saying dumb things you get a chance to get corrected an actually learn something.

If you're in a high level meeting discussing next year's budget... please shut up.

"Better to stay silent and be thought of as being dumb than opening your mouth and confirming it." That saying just seems to focus on the part of it where your worried about what people think of you. Whereas if you say something dumb at least people are thinking of you. Whereas the shy guy is not thought about at all. It’s kind of like it’s better to play ball and lose than not play at all.
