I was tested at 140 IQ as a child and placed in gifted programs. I learned things very quickly and had many talents but I always felt like nothing special and suffered from impostor syndrome at times.
I always just assumed that most people were like me. It wasn't until I came across the story about how the A&W 1/3 pound burger failed because people thought 1/3 was less than 1/4 that I started to really open my eyes to how dumb a lot of people are, and these last few years with the rise of wokeness and progressivism have made me lower the bar even further.
I feel like a damn genius these days with the stupidity I see on a daily basis during this plandemic.
I scored 155 when I was 17. I haven't taken a test since.
I interacted with a lady last spring that must have been in the mid 80 low 90 range. I found it interesting how I had to deal with her. She was intelligence in her own ways and showed me that some of my actions where kind dumb, but normal for me. Like verifying if she could text me. She said "ya, I have your number." When I was meaning would she be /able/ to text me.
I quickly realize I needed to find a respectful way of communicating with her and do it fast. I just kept the concepts simple and direct to the point. It worked. I did not treat her stupid. I didn't talk down to her. I simply adjusted my precision of language.
Anyways, I thought about that story when you said you must bring different tools to people.
I was a voracious reader as a child and would read the Encyclopedia my parents bought me just for fun. I've always had a craving for knowledge, history and just information. Everything fascinates me, which has led me to become a jack of all trades, master of none. I can't just put all my eggs into one basket, it's something I still struggle with. I'm a graphic artist as far as career but I've dabbled in pretty much everything from being a musician to writer to carpenter.
One thing I will admit is that because learning was so easy for me I have always been a huge procrastinator and I am constantly fighting the lazy side of me with things like Modafinil to push myself into productivity. The praise and high expectations when I was a child have also made me a hyper perfectionist and very hard on myself, which also plays into my procrastination and ultimately my fear of failure.
A friend of mine retook the IQ test a few time to get up to 140. I got all of my answer correct on the test but purposely left an ez one wrong on purpose due to a story my father told me when I was a child.
I should have left more questions wrong, because being diagnosed with high IQ = happiness ruined.
If you have an high IQ, like many of my peers in my program, you can still be dumb AF if you do not also have a high perception/attention and integrity.
I hate smart stereotypes, because once you enter a program with all classified geniuses you will see personality and character traits making a huge difference.
This is why there are so few TRUMPs & Musks.
You sounds like a classic victim of being diagnosed with high IQ. Remember the probability of needing a 140+ iq in life situations is less than 0.1%. Heck, if god gave me a choice I'd spec for a bigger sex organ than IQ, simply cause it'll be used more.
Anyways, 160, retested as 157, trying to portray yourself on an online forum are signs of not realizing how much your life would have been better if everyone thought you were slightly dumb (while having a 160 IQ).
I used to laugh when people say the greatest accomplishments are done in people's late 20s and 30s.
Didn't realize our brains only finishes growing around 26 and real wisdom sets in several years later. Proof: car insurance.
Being a "prodigy" seemed so important. But that's just being 10 years ahead of your peers. Being 30 at 20 and 45 at 30 definitely is more of a drawback lol.
So yea, Now that the NNWO is about to be made, lets gather and have some fun. Our minds are about to be freed, our hands untied, the liars, cheater, fakers finally gets some retributions!
EQ has a hard upper limit where IQ have a soft cap or does not. The cap is the all the 'chemical' states the human body can produce.
The actual number itself really only matter once certain 'thresholds' is passed. So basically your mind is no longer as intricate and attentive as it used to be. Drug alcohol repeated polar emotions does can induce this.
Any reason for the 8 days delay? you from the future? ;)
I had moved to a new city and started a new job ten years back and didn’t really pay attn to politics or wokeness at the time. I complimented this ladies’ kid on being really smart and said she must have a really high IQ. The kid asked “what’s IQ mommy”. The dumb bitch said it was just some out of date test. At the time I was like…out of date? Really? Why? Since when? Is this another thing to stop making people feel bad for being stupid?
Now I look back and everything makes so much more sense. That town was extremely liberal and the people there were next level crazy.
I took a sample test once and passed, the Mensa rep told me I should join etc. I had planned on it but I did some research and also encountered others that were in Mensa and it just turned me off.
Honestly most Mensa members are just very pedantic and condescending people who wield their IQ as some badge that they are somehow better than everyone else. It's basically a glorified social club where they circle jerk and pat themselves on the back about how smart they are. That's my opinion on it anyway.
IQ is not that important. As I posted, mine is 151. Know what fabulous high paying career I have? Wife and mother for 40 years - love my jobs and would absolutely hate working outside of our home. My husband's IQ is 130. He has an MBA. Know what he chose as his life's work? He was a farm manager. Now you do need math because the gov't has about 5 bazillion forms every year but most farmers don't have MBAs.
How do you feel about marriages where the woman having 20 IQ points on the husband? I've heard that if the wife is smarter than the husband then the marriage can be difficult bc she will refuse his headship and always try to undermine him or resent him for being not as smart.
Haha... Your lucky I got tested higher in 7th? grade, they tested me three times, two solo... to make sure I wasn't cheating. And you know where they sent me... The special class, not that type of special... The "special-special" class where they keep a steady supply of pizza and treats to keep the special kids to not break stuff or fight. I Did NOT graduate... with a 150 IQ. I later got my GED ~ Thanks public educational system!

I'm very high energy, I love stimulants.

Great video. Maybe I should start a burger place and sell "huge" 1/50 burgers, lol.
I don't know whether to laugh or cry. Pls advise.
Mine is 151 BUT some Q posts were beyond me.
Well that would explain it.
Some of the decodes like Majic Eyes are just on another level that makes me glad there are much smarter autists than me on the team
Agree 100%
I got kicked out of Mensa
I took a sample test once and passed, the Mensa rep told me I should join etc. I had planned on it but I did some research and also encountered others that were in Mensa and it just turned me off.

LOL that's how I see it too.
Edit: My view of all this dIQ-swinging going on in this thread can accordingly be inferred
I know there are IQ tests online but I'm scared to take one bc I know I'm not that smart and don't want the test to gloat over me, LOL.
