Apparently my seven-year-old is very intelligent (according to his teachers and IQ testing and stuff). Maybe I'll have him start posting for me.

So, KH thinks that I'm dumb
That means either that I post dumb stuff, or I actually am dumb, or KH is too dumb to understand my intelligence
Since the latter is obviously impossible since KH is on the top of the list..............Formerly known as "CyberShy"

I don't believe that there is necessarily a perfectly-definable quantity of "innate intelligence"; intelligence is a conflation of a number of different types of abilities. Nor do I believe that even if there were such an ideal quantity that psychiatrists would have discovered how to test for it perfectly. Nevertheless, I'm willing to accept that such tests reveal something about the subject's mental abilities.12-17-10 Mohamed Bouazizi NEVER FORGET

Hmm, I think I'll go for it. Rank me."You're the biggest user of hindsight that I've ever known. Your favorite team, in any sport, is the one that just won. If you were a woman, you'd likely be a slut." - Slowwhand, to Imran

Sorry, I skimmed your thread."You're the biggest user of hindsight that I've ever known. Your favorite team, in any sport, is the one that just won. If you were a woman, you'd likely be a slut." - Slowwhand, to Imran

IQ tests, standardised tests (SAT, GRE, MCAT etc)

The trick isn't to break some eggs to make an omelette, it's convincing the eggs to break themselves in order to aspire to omelettehood.

Yes. Don't underestimate people's ability to be petty."You're the biggest user of hindsight that I've ever known. Your favorite team, in any sport, is the one that just won. If you were a woman, you'd likely be a slut." - Slowwhand, to Imran
