  • If it makes you feel better, this post shows me that I'm more intelligent than you. :P

      • 1) Use of cleverer rather than more clever.

        2) Thinking clever is the same as intelligent.

        3) Anthropomorphizing your self esteem.

        4) Comparing yourself to the Internet.

        You might be smart. But you're probably not as smart as you think. Although you could become so. You clearly care about intellect and that's great. So go frequent more intelligent areas of the Internet. Try going to YouTube and looking up an Intelligence Squared debate or a Q&A debate. Watch lectures by Lawrence Krauss or Neil DeGrasse Tyson. I have an IQ of 138 on the standard scale(anyone saying they are over 145 is lying as it caps out at 145 and you have to take a special test to go further). That puts me in the top .5%. But watching these men speak humbles me.

        A good list of people to YouTube:
        Sam Harris
        Lawrence Krauss
        Richard Dawkins
        Neil DeGrasse Tyson
        Christopher Hitchens
        Bill Nye

        • Did you really just use the word "anthropomorphizing" in your mini-speech?

          I completely agree with you in the fact that OP hasn't delivered him/herself as the brightest, though the fact that you went to the extent of not only using a Googled 18 letter word, but also of going through the trouble of desperately trying to make yourself seem credible through online IQ tests and Youtube is just a bit pathetic.

          Simplicity is honest intelligence. Don't try so hard.

          • Also the IQ tests I took were proctored(supervised in case that's another Googled word in your mind) but I do appreciate you demonstrating my point to the OP that nobody cares.

            • It's alright if you feel the need dwindle others down to their expense but the fact that you needed three separate comments to perfect your comeback is a pretty sad thing as well, my friend. It's also okay if it took you a week to think of your oh-so insulting reply.

              And while I sat there thinking who the hell replied multiple times to my comment on here, I honestly can say you are one of the most desperate people I've ever encountered. It practically oozes out of your comments.

              • I'm terribly sorry if my writing style disturbs you. Sometimes I'm multitasking so I send responses I pieces. I know how hard that can be on you. :(

                Also terribly sorry that I don't religiously check for responses on this website.

                I'm also sorry that you're rarely interesting enough to warrant three responses.

                I'll do my best to use small words around you and keep it all in one post. I'd get an implant that notifies me of your specific actions so I can respond on your timetable but alas I cannot. Sweet dreams pumpkin.

          • It's actually sad that, to you, anthropomorphizing is a word you have to Google.

          • Oh I'm sorry I used a pretty common word that was too big for you. :P

      • Also as a general rule don't brag about intellect on the Internet. Even if you're as smart as you say you are nobody will believe you. I listed my IQ on the previous reply and it is accurate. But I guarantee about 80% of the readers will think I'm full of shit. The other 20%? They don't care anyway.
