BS IQ's

[Trilby]

Seems everyone around here is a friggin' genius of some sort or other. It's all, "My IQ is this," WELL, MY IQ is this!!" and all this fake superior-intellect crap-ola (IIR rzkg claimed to shine more brightly than Einstein in the ol' intellect game) mensa offers, keys to the golden kingdom shite-----well, I'll be dipped in it! I'm surrounded by the NEWTON's of this age!!! Lucky, lucky me!



(happy, now, lj? Now, see, I'm mad!*)




plus, I've a killer headache and just read all that crap about voting Republican....oy.

IQ is the new penis.


With some dwellars, I will not mention Yznhymr's reasoning specifically, actual size is difficult to measure because they can't seem to get it up.

I'm voting Republican because freedom of speech is part of the Constitution, period.


I'm voting Republican because the flag stands for freedom. Burning the flag is unpatriotic. I believe it is possible for people with IQs over 70 to come up with other ways to protest. Of course that’s not the case if they are Anti-American, in which case I say there are many planes, trains, boats, and automobiles leaving our borders every day. Why don’t you board one?

I look at IQ like a glass to hold water. Some of us are born with shot glasses like George W. Bush, and some are born with giant beer steins. The size of the glass isn't as relevant as how much you actually fill it.

I've seen some people who weren't given much of a glass, but they worked very hard to fill it to capacity. They are much better educated than someone who has a large glass but who is too lazy to fill it up so they've only got a shot glass worth of water. The size of your glass isn't as important as the amount and quality of information you fill it with.

I'm not very impressed with high IQs. I only mentioned mine in response to someone else's. By the time I was 6 years old I already knew algebra, had read the dictionary, and other books, etc. My school began testing me like crazy. I was in the counselor's office more than the classroom during my first year, and I tested higher in 1st grade than any of the 6th graders in my school.

The school district wanted to move me from 1st grade to 8th grade, but my parents wouldn't allow it. I believe this was a mistake. I was bored all through school learning and re-learning the same material and as hard as this is to believe, back then I was a trouble maker; a rabble-rouser.

I have tested well and I went to a pretty good college and I find that this entitles me to exactly jack shit.

Yes, but, as Radar pointed out, it's the new penis. Where does that leave all the Laydee Cellarites?

Drooling?

[HungLikeJesus]

Mine goes up to eleven.

You're IQ?

Exactly.

The phrase is also used in a derogatory sense when referring to a person's lack of common sense. To say "His amp goes up to eleven" is to imply that regardless of the extent to which you explain or "dumb down" a seemingly simple concept to someone, that person will never be capable of understanding.

Excuse me, Radar? I would never expect you to confuse anything having to do with penises, Bri.

That being said, while I can't speak for the penises of the lady cellarites, quite of few of them have very large metaphorical balls.

Actually, it wasn't me who used the penis analogy.

I took one of those stupid online IQ tests years ago, and then again the next day, while the kids were home. Guess what? Kids do lower your IQ!

Thank you sir. Noone could ever accuse you of plagarism by doxy....err... proxy.

I got the penis quote mixed up because of this headache I got from reading the "I"m voting Republican" thread---so, forgive me, as you all know, I do from penii.

I'm taking four advil and then I'm laying down.

Thank you. I apologize for the doxy bit. I was trying to be clever and I think it crossed the line. You are an amazing woman and a survivor, and that is what is really important, using your IQ to keep going forward.

BTW, if you ever need to tell Radar and me apart again, remember, mine's bigger.
