Guest SkinsHokie Fan Posted July 8, 2003 Share Posted July 8, 2003 I wish there was something above somewhat above average but below genius.

BG Posted July 8, 2003 Share Posted July 8, 2003 Ummm..... My momma says I'm smart:shootinth :gus: You mean compared to other Americans??? I'm relatively "with it." Compared to the rest of my South Carolinian citizens, I feel I am a genius. Compared to the rest of the world, I have no way of knowing becuase I have not seen enough of it. So.... I'd say I'm pretty dumb... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
panel Posted July 8, 2003 Share Posted July 8, 2003 Everyone thinks that they are above adverage, I voted myself adverage because I still need to finish up college and live a real life. But really, even the dumbest people vote themselfs as above adverage, if they know that they are dumb, how dumb can they be? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burgold Posted July 8, 2003 Share Posted July 8, 2003 What do you want us to use as the measuring stick? IQ, achievement, those around us, political affiliation? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
codeorama Posted July 8, 2003 Share Posted July 8, 2003 Compared to the people I work with, I'm a genius. Compared to some guys here on the board, I'm an idiot... you do the math... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gbear Posted July 8, 2003 Share Posted July 8, 2003 Funny thing about this question: in my experience it's only the top 5 to 10% of people who realise just how much they don't know. The rest think what they know is what there is to know. Most of the rest seem totally unable to look at the world beyond what occurs to them in the first 5 min of looking at any situation, and they are totally incapable of comprehending that others may look at the same world to see something totally different. Even those that can understand what they see is different often have a hard time reconsiling what others see with their own world views for a more complete world view. I know that despite my efforts, it's the last part that often trips me up. Of course the truely fun part of this question is the typical reluctance to pick extremes in surveys. Fun question.

Golgo-13 Posted July 8, 2003 Share Posted July 8, 2003 Funny how the "average" is to pick "above average." It's almost impossible to determine if you think about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darth Tater Posted July 8, 2003 Share Posted July 8, 2003 By testing, I'm a genius but that measure intelligence By politcal affiliation, I'd have to say I'm above average but that's pretty subjective By personal achievement, below average to average Average them out , I'm above average or a blithering genius.

Riggo-toni Posted July 8, 2003 Share Posted July 8, 2003 Originally posted by jbooma is it me or do we have a lot of people with HUGE HEADS Personally, I always want a little head.... I couldn't bring myself to click genius, but since we've been asked to be honest, I'd have to say I'm more than just somewhat above average. Actually, I would bet the intellect of our board's members far exceeds the norm. Despite the occasional petty name calling and such, I think anyone reading the posts in our tailgate would have to conclude that we are for the most part a very gifted and well-read bunch!

The Evil Genius Posted July 8, 2003 Share Posted July 8, 2003 Average...in fact...Denis Leary said it best... I'm just a regular Joe with a regular job I'm your average white suburbanite slob I like football and porno and books about war I've got an average house with a nice hardwood floor My wife and my job, my kids and my car My feet on my table, and a cuban cigar But sometimes that just ain't enough to keep a man like me interested (Oh no) No Way (Uh-uh) No, I've gotta go out and have fun At someone else's expense (Oh yeah) Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah I drive really slow in the ultrafast lane While people behind me are going insane I'm an ******* (He's an *******, what an *******) I'm an ******* (He's an *******, such an *******) I use public toilets and piss on the seat I walk around in the summertime saying, "How about this heat?"

phanatic Posted July 8, 2003 Share Posted July 8, 2003 How do you define smart? Iv'e scored between 122 to 149 on all of the IQ tests Iv'e taken. That places me in the fourth percentile. Strenghts are logic, science math at all levels. Weakness, you've seen me type.:laugh: The term smart is only useful when applied to a particular topic. Everybody is shamaat in their own way!

Phantasm Posted July 9, 2003 Share Posted July 9, 2003 Pretty smart according to IQ tests, but I guess I'm having a hard time to find an appropriate outlet for my genius. Or maybe I'm just lazy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
