    My IQ is 148i.
    Unreal!
    Or purely imaginary...
    Same thing, no?

    Well... that was sort of the point. That was how the pun was supposed to work :confused:

    (However, 148i is purely imaginary as its real component is 0, whereas, afaik, unreal numbers can have non-zero real part. The purely imaginary numbers form a proper subset of the unreal numbers; assuming that by unreal numbers you are referring to the imaginary or complex numbers.)

    how do you find out your iq? is it one of those stupid online tests?

    you can send off for mensa to send you a home test then if you do well they'll call you in for the supervised one

    not much point though in the grand scheme of things

    Don't forget to give yourself bonus IQ points for not pissing all over your shoes.

    I have learned so much this week it makes me wonder what the hell I have been doing for the last 25 years.

    Why do I have the feeling that chronic masterbator is the answer "staring you in the face"? :confused:

    So people that know a lot of **** are super smart, that is awesome.

    Upon joining boards.ie this month I have learnt about picking up women in random places, how pointless religious vs atheist debates are, how inherently rascist taxi drivers are, gypsys who race horses on motorways whilst at the meantime costing the taxpayer hundreds of euros cleaning up the horse****, that Greece will start WW3 and kill millions of Jews, gay hitchhikers, cranky assholes who hates cats (why?), that people here can't spell women no good, how retarded some the threads are and basically about how ****ed we all are.



    Actually fu*k you I am going to make a retarded thread about what useless crap I learnt from here today....one sec.

    dont believe everything you hear!!

    usually these people are the thickest of all

    +1, its all in the way they say it. Some people have such confidence in themselves that they could tell you that the sky is pink with yellow polka dots and you would take it for truth because they seem so sure of themselves. Personally I often end up starting sentences with "I think" or "As far as I know" etc when I'm asked questions which makes it sound like I haven't a clue, even though I'm probably right, while others who haven't a clue what they're taking about give there answer with such certainty its automatically taken as truth.

    It's called the Lake Woebegon Effect - after that little fictional town in Minnesota where "all the women are strong, all the men are good-looking, and all the children are above-average". :pac:

    If you've never heard a Lake Woebegon story, I can highly recommend subscribing to the podcast, or at least try this one, which is partly about education and memory:

    My IQ is 164 but is a weight around my neck. I spend half my day biting my lip and generally hating everyone. Silently
