Is this a "Curse of Knowledge" kind of feeling? Like, when you are talking to someone you begin by thinking they will understand, but then realise they do not. Or is it really just the feeling that you are surrounded by stupid people? How does this feeling you speak of compare to the feeling of speaking to someone on the same level as you?

I too, being of pretty average intelligence --- probably not above --- am shocked by the stupid things people say and do as well. Maybe what you are experiencing is normal, like giardini says [1]:
