The only tests that are worth anything test very specialized things - and at that, they're quite effective. Maybe you're "smarter" in one area - perhaps speedy reasoning (like the ability of the brain to run a bunch of potential conclusions and single out the higher-probability conclusions without effort, or convert long-form logical processes into subconscious or near-subconscious processes to deal with more complex issues). And speedy reasoning only applies in certain areas - not every walk of life.

Another element of intelligence that you seem to lack is the kind of intelligence that says that the more you praise yourself (whether true or not), the more people will intentionally spite you, and the less effective you will be at leading people or working with them. And regardless how intelligent you are, the impact you make on society is based more on how well you articulate yourself and work among others than your own personal talents.

There's also the kind of intelligence that informs one that regardless how you are insulted on the internet, responding at all just fuels the flames. Insulting in kind will nearly always throw gasoline on the fire and make you look exactly the same as your insulter to everyone around you.

And the more time you waste attempting to defend yourself to them, insulting them, stooping to their level, etc, the more you look as ridiculous as them, regardless what your IQ is.


I prefer not to talk about relative intelligence and just talk facts. I find it's a bit more effective.

/agreed 100% sir, that's why I stated what I said earlier. But it's fun to stir the troglodyte pot just a wee bit, isn't it? [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Remember, it all started with a sig. After that, everyone jumped down my throat.

You seem to be one of the few here who gets it. I prefer intelligent conversation, which inevitably converges to a philosophical discussion as it should, I guess. And then it ends up with who gets their Kant, their Heiddeger, Wittgenstein, or the fake Mills. I dunno, in the end it's all perception anyway with observation taking a bite out of reality, or vice versa.

Stop it with your pseudo-intellectual bullshit. (and I say pseudo- because, seriously, wtf does that mean?)

It's pretty much an accepted fact with quantum scientists today: the simple act of observing an event can change the outcome of said event. Here's an experiment done in 1998 on the quantum level proving this (or showing its apparent validity). Also, google Schroedinger's Cat.

http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases...0227055013.htm

If anyone out there is interested in more, here are two books that I was introduced to at a very early age that got me interested in metacognition, otherwise known as the science of awareness and learning:

http://www.amazon.com/Zen-Art-Motorc.../dp/0553277472

http://www.amazon.com/Dancing-Wu-Li-.../dp/055326382X

A very good author, Michio Kaku, has hosted some Discovery specials on the subject. Start with Hyperspace:

The realization that everything and everyone is connected opens up your eyes to many wondrous things and causes you to see the world very differently.

I thought WizardEQ was purely a troll at first, but this guy is legitimately an internet genius. He is able to find truth in a matter of seconds and present it in a easy to understand manner, troll 95% of the community without dumbing down his humor, and throw about truisms we hide from everyday with the wrath of zues. The arrogance at first demanded I troll him and hard, do what I can to bother him, but he struck a fell blow when he complimented my humor, and took insults in stride.

In short, this guy is ronnie from salute your shorts. But I refuse to be budnick, I WILL ADAPT.

I don't know what to say, I'm speechless. Albeit, I believe it to be a compliment wrapped in an insult, but I'll take it. As for you being funny, I was completely 100% sincere. Your humor just hits me in the right place.
