I'm actually quite airheaded. There's nothing intelligent residing in my head at all.
"A fool thinks himself to be wise, but a wise man knows himself to be a fool." -William Shakespeare
Interesting food for thought.
Sometimes because I feel im more knowledgable in certain areas and with others like math I just plain feel dumb :\
I'm quite intelligent. I just like to play dumb.
Ever seen that Need For Speed movie where the British girl pretends she is dumb up until the point where those guys from Marshall Mechanics start to become condescending?
That is, basically, me. Except for the fact that I don't have breasts... but if I did have breasts, they would be perky as hell.
I think every person is quite intelligent. Am I intelligent relative to other people? Differences in intelligence between human individuals are too small to be placed beyond doubt.
Is relative, though compared to those with 140 IQ I still feel out place. Even in context to those denoted by lesser IQ of foreign intelligence, you can see the writers true IQ show. The whole intelligence quota thing is bs figured that out a long time ago. Those are very basic things everyone should have adapted into problem solving during childhood. Intelligence is merely a scope of perception, and the understanding of said perception. Based on the understanding, what one applies to mold a new perception from the initial is definition of true IQ. In this sense I feel very alone on this planet, you come by people not as scarce as one may initially judge by face value people who can come to understanding of your beliefs. Though is all ways clouded by imperatives, and what right is it of mine to foreshadow my beliefs onto them. Understanding at face value is one thing, to take heed is another. Humans are young, they will learn in time. Based on the majority of fictional cases of life outside our solar system, this seems even more depressing. The rate of progression is ever so slow due to the counter-productive nature of men, and their avaricious nature fueling their innovations.
Even after all this is said and done, what does it matter, of what purpose is it. I've advocated my opinions for years and no one listens. So you learn to talk to yourself, and grow these beliefs larger and larger. Though of what purpose is that journey when nothing is going to happen. We all do this, on different scales to provide ourselves with solace with this burden denoted as life. Is just counter-productive is all.
No, looking back it makes sense, I wasn't diagnosed with a.d.d until the age of 16, by then my dad and the school system had convinced me I was stupid and lazy so I only paid attention to the lessons I enjoyed, I got GCSE's in English, psychology and science and failed a very thing else as I didn't pay attention in anything else due to giving up, I'm embarrassed to admit it but I struggle with basic math, from a young age math lessons were just music sessions ( I used to run a headphone through my jumper sleeve and into my hand then lean on it ) so I honestly can't remember the last time I actually tried to learn it, I resort to finger counting far more often than I'd like.
I used to be very eloquent in spoken voice, both in terminology and in making concise point, it was to the point where a lot of people thought I was pretentious and posh, I'm not sure if it's been the teenage years of weed, the anxiety or the lack of mental challenge since school but now my sentences are a mess, often I stop a sentence before I actually finish and make a hand genture as if to say " you know " words fail me constantly, my phrasing is awful and I often speak about things I know a lot about and it sounds like I'm faking knowledge.
Also I don't know what's going on in the world, I'm dealing with my own shit, I don't spend time to watch newsnight anymore or get an opinion on politics, I'm easily led, I like to think I have more control and independence over my opinions but I often find my opinion has been based on poorly founded things, so I don't pay a lot of attention to much of what anyone says anymore which has led me to have a pretty poor understanding of the current world around me outside of my own cynical view
Plus I just feel pretty I don't know, not exactly stupid but definitely not intelligent, actually no, stupid probably is the word,
Fuck, this was going to be a sentance, my bad, I've got to stop going on iin during insomnia fueled self analysis moments, I tend to get annoying and rambley, don't think that's a word.......I like it though
Well, depends on the topic.
But, I understand what you mean, so... I don't really consider myself "intelligent", unless I'm naming European countries... Yeah... Only the countries. No states, cities, regions, or counties. Just countries. And I can't even name all of them, only most.
I also do pretty well when it comes to grammar. It's just that slang gets in the way at times...
I'm horrible at math and science, so never ask me anything about that. The only thing that I feel "intelligent" about in math is that I can draw three-dimensional shapes and multiply. When it comes to science, I can name the chemical formula for hydrogen peroxide: H2O2. But other than that, I suck.
I know how to use logic, but I forget to use it sometimes.
So... To sum it up, I guess I'm sometimes intelligent?
When you know, you know. Dumb people don't even understand when somebody is smart, so it's almost no fun being smart because you can't impress anyone with it. Other smart people just think they're smarter than you.
I've noticed that people tend to frustrate me more if their IQ is under 120. People under 115 are usually pretty intolerable in large doses. It's pretty easy to guess someone's IQ if you're smart and you know them well enough. I've been really close on many occasions. I wish everyone knew their IQ so that I could test my ability more often.
Even though the 85-100 area is considered "below average" and not exactly stupid, to a smart person, 100 seems pretty dull. I mean, Britney Spears is supposed to be like 103 or something, so that says a lot XD
No, but for some reason, people around me seem to think that I'm genius or that I'm secretly gifted. People seem to think that I'm just being modest whenever I tell them that I'm a complete idiot - then they get mad whenever my 'expert' advice doesn't serve them well.
I'm literate, can write well, and have a decent vocabulary. On the other hand I'm terrible at math, so-so on history, geography, and weak in math. I speak two languages.
I'd generously say I have slightly above average intelligence, but by no means close to a genius.
Usually. I am pretty quick to figure things out and can learn new things without too much difficulty. I have my moments of stupidity but overall I'd say I am smarter than the average bear.
Yes, very much so in some areas but not so much in others. For example: I know a lot about people, but can't find the right words to describe them out loud, other than "Good" or "Bad" I have a general knowledge of everything, and a proficient knowledge of a few things.
I have a little bit of information or facts on a broad range of random things but not much in depth knowledge on any subjects or topics. I'm more of a hand/eye puzzle type problem solver brainy person rather than book smartz. Like charli, I have many brain farts.
Is this a trick question?
If I asked the first robot to ask the second robot his opinion, what do you think he would say?
