    The most incisive mind, the most searing wit, the wisest use of "yore ma" etc etc?

    Just wondering.

    Feel free to speculate, in the absence of facts.

    Me: I have a certificate from a very reputable online institution that states that my intelligence is so high that I broke their on-line test. It's framed and on my sitting room wall to impress visitors. I only had to pay $100 for it. Bahr-gain!

    people that take IQ tests after schooling are just stuck up /=| I had considered getting retested after having been marked as excpetional in a missing result from back when I was 5 and lived in Seattle but I have now thought it best to leave it alone.. Im sure summertime doses of weed and weekly doses of alcohol has set me straight.

    The only other reason i might think of is for a genius grant or something but im definitely too lazy for one of those.

    Fool! For $200 you could've got a full degree!:p

    Though I tend to score quite well in them (and aptitude tests in general) I don't put too much faith in IQ tests as I know people who have high IQ's and yet are the biggest twits I've ever met. Then there's the whole thing of why there isn't a universal IQ test, the max score seems to vary depending on the country the IQ test is from.

    Attempting to measure intelligence accurately is like trying to go for a swim in a toilet. It just doesn't work.

    The cleverest on boards is without doubt that Corinthian bloke. The fcukers got brains to burn. Would absolutely hate to get into an argument with him because no matter what the argument was, he'd be right and he'd make you look like a wally.

    Read in a book once though that people with massive brains have tiny todgers so its not all bad.

    It's not how big it is, it's how you use it!

    Just look at all the "bottom rungers" who win "mastermind"

    No, but you can easily spot a retard if they try either.

    Bah, IQ tests are a load of rubbish. They guage how well you can do certain types of puzzles and are completely useless now that they no longer show the Krypton Factor.

    Yeah I used to be in mensa once. Load of toss tbh. The magazine has to be the most pretentious load of drivel i've ever read, and how cheap ass is that plaque??? ffs???. Just a load of people who can't write giving themselves collective pats on the back.

    I actually wrote in an article review once, when they posted an article about a member who *shock horror* was also good looking. The review went along the lines of "I for one agree with this for I too am amazingly handsome and intelligent and successfull" ... and they PRINTED IT!!! I must of struck the right cord of arrogance that they where looking for.

    IQ is irrelevant tbh... this is about the only good use for that crappy cheap mensa card.

    mensa card as paste spreader

    Oh and the barcode isn't blurred out, it actually wore off when I used acetone to clean it.. oh how I laughed at that bittersweet irony ;)

    I have one of those, but I paid €1000. It's from PRINCE ABUGWE OBOMO OF NIGERIA, so I know it's legit.

    You can't be that smart, you're not supposed to spread thermal paste out on CPUs with those large heat-spreaders :p
