The time I met him, he seemed a bit of a lightweight.

See, I was basing that impression off the fact that we typically only hear two things about him, personally: how awesome his job is (or how good he is at it, etc.), and how often he gets approached by women at bars. I assumed he went home sometimes as well, but those two came across as his two modes of existence. Shows what I know.

Okay, I'll admit it, I love puns, and that one literally made me laugh out loud.

God damn. I missed that one.

I refuse to accept anyone's intelligence unless they can stay on their feet for the full 100 metres in QWOP.

You could probably use that game for torture. It would probably get a confession out of me.

with the constant pay increases, promotions and general fawning over you that happens at work? What about the random trim that behaves as though your drunken ramblings are somehow delightfully clever every time you go out to a bar with buddies? I feel like charlie sheen at this point; all the challenge is gone.

I defeated apolyton like 3 years ago, and I'm pretty sure I beat life some time last year. Do I just do chad johnson style touchdown dances until I die?

It's tough man. Especially when drinking only makes it worse. Cobain shot himself for this very reason.

Courtney Love shot Cobain.

Wow that isn't censored.

That's why I always type "bull****" here instead of "bull ****".

[DaShi]

I can attest that Oerdin always posts bull****.

If ability at CIV was a measurement of Intelligence I should be ruling this godforsaken world.

So no, the fact that this is a CIV site doesn't have any relevance here.

Naw, all you need now is immortality (or lifespan of 6050+ years), to be sent back in time to 4000BC, and a completely obedient civ to rule over.

[Al B. Sure!]

And if there are a hundred thousand people of his caliber alive, whereTF are they? Zimbabwe?

Being ****ing weird like this guy:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christopher_Langan

Christopher Michael Langan (born c. 1952) is an American autodidact whose IQ was reported by 20/20 and other media sources to have been measured at between 195 and 210.[1] Billed by some media sources as "the smartest man in America",[2] he rose to prominence in 1999 while working as a bouncer on Long Island.

Newton was a weirdo, too. All the extreme geniuses probably are.

Asked about creationism, Langan has said:

I believe in the theory of evolution, but I believe as well in the allegorical truth of creation theory. In other words, I believe that evolution, including the principle of natural selection, is one of the tools used by God to create mankind. Mankind is then a participant in the creation of the universe itself, so that we have a closed loop. I believe that there is a level on which science and religious metaphor are mutually compatible.

Why are they wasting their time interviewing this guy? Anyone who's not retarded could come up with "God used evolution and science and religion are compatible".

Courtney Love shot Cobain.

It should have been a murder/suicide.

You could probably use that game for torture. It would probably get a confession out of me.

That game is hard? I made it to 50. They have hurdles. I tripped on a damn hurdle and crashed out.

This is how I was beating it. Same strategy.

[KrazyHorse]

For what it's worth, I'll back you and Alby up on your understanding of statistics. I suspect KH was referring to something else. (For example, that IQ is calibrated for the developed world and would have a different distribution if you tested people from impoverished countries?)

Ding.
