Somewhere under another topic the subject of IQ's among the various races came up and I suddenly realized that I was too darn dumb to remember what a decent IQ 'score' was now-a-days.
So I looked it up and am thinking that it might be a good idea to inquire what the IQ 'scores' of some of the more than honest GetBigges just might be.
I was raised among a good number of intellectuals, most among whom I lacked the 'smarts' to carry on a decent conversation regarding mental disorders, quantum mechanics, and philosophy, etc., so I regarded myself as being pretty damn dumb even though I somewhat understood the basics of Quantum Mechanics as asserted by an expert within that field.
But I still considered myself to be pretty damn dumb (thanks to Mom and Dad and their associates!) until I took my first IQ test and kinda/sorta recall it being either 108 or 112. (I'd place a bet on 108 if I was forced to do so!)
So with this having been said, I though it might be a good (genius?) idea to see how I stand among other GetBiggers on this here GetBig Board providing you have been tested and are aware of your IQ score.
If you don't know your own IQ score, you might want to take a guess regarding the IQ scores of others on this Board.
Here's some help to get you started if you want to play this game.
IQ Ratings of Over 140 --Genius or near genius
IQ Ratings of 120 to 140--Highly intelligent
IQ Ratings of 110 to 119 --Very intelligent
IQ Rating of 90 to 109 --Normal or average intelligence
IQ Ratings of 80 to 89 -- Dullness
IQ Rating of 70-79 --Borderline deficiency
IQ Ratings below 70 --Definite feeble-mindedness

I have taken quite a few IQ tests over the years. I have always scored between the low 120's to the low 130's.
-
172
-
RONNIE, You is damn smarted than I is.
Thanks for your input. With your permission I will now go back and read some of your GetBig input to see what a Highly Intelligent individual submits to this GetBig Board.
-
i tested last year at 152
8)
-
DIABLO, Is that your bodyweight or are you serious?
RONNIE, I can only recall taking an IQ test for college admission and once upon a time while in the Corps (don't ask me why about that 2nd test because I have no idea why and they never told us the results.)
But I made up for my 'dumbness' by my inherent ability to exceed within physical accomplishments as a result of lifting heavy things and running away from trouble at an early age.
And got some kind of award for it many years later.
Ronnie, why did you have the opportunity to take so many IQ tests?
-
I scored 312
-
i consider myself average intelligence at a meager 129.. :-[ :-[ :-[ :-[ :-[
-
BIGMC, Damn impressive if truthful.
You are a GENIUS!!
Gotta see if your GetBig input attests to that!
But I may be not-smart-enough to see a correlation.
-
I'm (114-100)/15 = 0.93 SD's above the average. I beat 83% of the population IQ wise. 8)
I have taken quite a few IQ tests over the years. I have always scored between the low 120's to the low 130's.
130 is top 2.3% of the population. You're smarter than 97% of the population. Congratulations.
-
FUNK, At 129 you are considered by the smart guys who made these IQ tests as being HIGHLY INTELLIGENT ... which seems to be incongruous with the fact that you are unaware of your intelligence.
Actually I don't really know what 'incongruous' actually means but anyone with an IQ of 129 certainly does.
PS. I sorta/kinda always recall enjoying your input.
Thanks
-
10 PINTS, According to the IQ experts (not me of course) your input (see above) would place you within the less than 80 IQ score.
But they would possibly offer you a second try of course!
-
UNO, Thanks for your input and the additional info.
That 'additional information' (percentage of the population) is interesting and I'll do my best to find it and place it here when I get the time.
So far, I can see that this Board is a mix of the very dumb and the very smart with a scattering of those within the middle.
I'll have to revert to some statistic books to find the correct terminology for what I just stated in that last sentence, but you smarter guys should understand.

Straight serious. Tested in early high school. Was a lazy student who just wanted to play sports but realized I wasn't lazy but just bored in class. The school tried to enroll me in all of these state academic competitions and I was like fuck no. Got 1570 on my SAT. know the exact questions I fucked up on. Was some bullshit latin word that I had no clue what the meaning was.
Got into mensa but never tried to get into the prometheus group.
-
Never posted my iq on here as i would imagine endless flames and trolling. Though about posting pics of thenresults on my IG but would probably be accused of printing them on MS Word or photoshop. Lol.. Pointless. A lot easier if ppl think youre dumb. Little do they know inwas on the R&D team for GM for developing the EV1 and passed on a paid internship of $35k a yr just out of h.s. for LockheedMartin. (35/ back then wasnt bad for an 18yr old lol)

Goodrum claimed he was measured at 131.

I've never seen anyone online say their IQ was just 100 and certainly never below 100. Like cock size everyone is above average.

In what capacity did you work on the GM R&D team? If you were offered an internship with Lockheed, you must have been in college. What college were you going to?
-

A $35k internship out of high school sounds more like a college scholarship.
Dude what happened to you?

Few of our scca evtc class race team were part of the r&d team developing controllers for electric vehicles. The controllers were like a gas motors ecu (with a "drive by wire"throttle at least) which controlled how much power was drawn and recycled to the batterys (16 in our race car for instance). Internship was gotten through one of our team advisors who worked for Lockheed years earlier. Nuclear physicist who worked at the san onofre plant named john who looked like a skinny santa with a smokin hot Filipina wife looked maybe 10yrs older than me. Drove a bio-diesel toyota truck 10yrs b4 anybody knew what biodiesel was lol.
Think i talked about this before. We had GM & toyota both approach us (& Pennzoil for other stuff, sponsors nixxedbthat idea) to work with them. Toyota said that by 2015 they werent going to have any more gas powered vehicles. This was back when a few of us had supras and mr2s (and celicas :/ ), and none of us could believe toyota, who had always embraced the tuner market and even had TRD, a in house tuner/aftermarket, they'd turn away from gas engines and racing... And GM at te time seemed like a safer choice and were closer to releasing an electric vehicle. We chose gm's offer. Nice to see how that panned out, with toyota the world leader in hybrid tech. Lol

35k back then seemed like a good amt of money back then... But i didn't like the idea of working of jet engines for the rest of my life. Didn't really think that through
-
Interesting that you mentioned the San Onofre Plant as I was there during 1964/1965 (construction phase) and close friend was a Nuclear Start Up Engineer. (Another close associate who proved how dumb I was! I seem to have always had very intelligent friends or associates).
But a couple of them had some form of mental break-downs which I hear heard is somewhat common among those of high intelligence.
Decent surfing area and good times recalled during those San Onofre days.
-
Someone above (I'm too lazy to look) asked what kind of IQ test.
The only IQ test that I can recall is the Stanford Benet test.
If there are others, that shows how dumb I am.
Now I gotta check out what the hell 1570 on a SAT is.
-
I got 35 on the ACT, is that good?
-
DIABLO, Here is some info based on your 1570 SAT score. (New SAT)
this 1570 score guide is for the New SAT, out of 1600.
This score corresponds to a 2330 in the old SAT out of 2400.
Out of the 1.67 million SAT test-takers, only 4,962 scored the same or higher than you.
You can apply to 2,313 colleges and have a good shot at getting admitted.
You have a very low chance of getting into 46 colleges with this score.
More info to follow if you want it.
-
POODLE, With a 35 ACT you could even be smarter than DIABLO so if anyone other than DIABLO says that you are dumber than dog-shit, they are either mistaken or just plain jealous.
.You're amongst the truly elite and should be able to get into any top tier school. It places you in approximately the 99th percentile nationally for all students who took the ACT.
For comparison purposes, a 35 on the ACT converts to a 1570 on the SAT based on College Board concordance for the new SAT. Not all colleges report both SAT and ACT score admission data so you should check our comparable listings for both standardized tests to find academically similar schools.
-
Some fellas (cough, cough, Goodrum) don't need to say it out loud!

I believe you. It takes humongous amounts of cognitive power to become a fitness and internet tycoon.
131 puts you in the top 1.9% holy $hit :o :o :o

I got 2360 (I *think*, not entirely sure. All I know is I got one question wrong in math but the curve sucked. so it could have been 20 or 30 lower, I can check...) on the old SAT in 2008.
Is that good?

You sound like me.
Know the exact question (or rather, *knew*... it was ten years ago) I got wrong on the math section that dropped my score.
And I know the exact question on the ACT that dropped me down to 35.25 from 35.5 (which would have rounded to 36 and given me a "perfect" score!). It was some reading comprehension passage with a bunch of horrible, indistinguishable arabic/middle-eastern/native-american/some-diversity-shit names, and the q was about which character did X or Y, and I just skimmed over the names when reading it because they were so fucking convoluted and awful and had to just guess.
....guessed wrong

That was the last time I was tested when I was a kid. I had a lot of book knowledge and I was writing computer programs when I was in middle school however I had the personality of a tree stump.....typical nerd. However, being smart doesn't translate to being rich. One of the smartest people in the world is a bouncer.

It does appear that Poodle and Diablo are equally intelligent according to two different intelligence score systems.
Are you sure your guys aren't the same persons?
Vince appears up there also but what test was used?
Where are you 80 and below GetBiggers?

The SAT, GRE, ACT, all these tests indirectly measure your IQ. (They measure how much you've learned, which heavily depends on your cognitive abilities.)
A 3 seconds google search confirmed it. ACT scores and IQ scores are highly correlated. In other words, if you took and IQ test, you would do fairly well.
Both the SAT and ACT are quite well correlated with IQ tests, so much so that you can make good guesses about someone’s IQ if you know their SAT/ACT score and vice versa.

TAPEWORM, With an IQ of 85 some of the more offensive GetBiggers would say that you are 'pretty damn dumb', but since I try to not be too damn offensive .... here are the official comments that are offered by more intelligent individuals than myself say about your '85' ......
"85 is not in the mentally retarded range. It is in the Below Average, or "Dull Normal" category. Most people who function at that intelligence level are employed in very routine jobs in our society, and they would be able to carry out the normal functions of ordinary living without a big problem.
Often, they would be helped by friends or family for more complicated matters, such as paying taxes, legal difficulties, reading and understanding important documents, selecting health insurance, perhaps learning to budget, relationship issues, social appropriateness, etc.
But even those of us who are a bit smarter may need help with these areas at times!"
-
Why do such high IQ people tell such dumb ass - easily seen through - lies?
-
I do realize that some of the more 'sensitive' GetBiggers will get mildly upset ... so I'll suggest beforehand that the next couple of 'inputs' are a bit lengthy and go into some detail regarding SAT history and its comparison to ACT.
But there does seem to be some interest among the 'intelligentsia +' and a couple of the "intellligensia -' on this Board so here goes .......
SAT History …. Did you know that what began as a series of Army IQ tests eventually evolved into what is now known as the SAT? In the early 1900s, many of the country’s leading universities and colleges sought a way to standardize the admissions process. Though the first College Boards were administered in 1901, the invention of the IQ test in 1905 and the results of IQ tests administered to Army recruits during World War I prompted the College Entrance Examination Board to explore how these tests could be adapted for use in the college admissions process. In 1926 the first group of high school students took the SAT, beginning a rite of passage that continues to this day.
The SAT has gone through several format changes over the years. In 2005 the changes, designed in part to address critics who felt the exam was neither an accurate reflection of student knowledge nor a good predictor of college preparedness, included the elimination of analogy and quantitative comparison questions and the addition of short reading comprehension passages, higher-level math concepts, and a Writing section. Additionally, the test length increased to 3 hours and 45 minutes (not including breaks), and a “perfect score” changed from a 1600 to a 2400. The College Board made additional changes to the SAT in March of 2016. Learn more about the new test here. …
In 2009 the College Board rolled out its new score reporting policy to include Score Choice. This policy change allows students to pick and choose which scores to send to colleges, giving students more control over how and when colleges receive their scores. While students now have the choice to submit their best SAT scores, some popular colleges and universities, such as Cornell, still ask that students send all test scores. You can find a full list of college score-use practices on the College Board website.
More than two million students take the SAT each year, and though a growing number of colleges and universities have made the submission of standardized test scores optional for applicants, the vast majority of schools still require and utilize these scores as part of the admissions process.

ACT or SAT: which test is more popular? Though the SAT continues to reign in popularity on the East and West coasts, the ACT is the more popular test in the Midwest. That being said, recent years have seen both exams gaining ground in areas where they had formerly been less popular; it’s now common practice for students all across the country to take both exams. Since the differing formats and content of the exams tend to appeal to different students, many students take both tests to see which one suits their strengths better.
Both the SAT and ACT tests are offered in all 50 states, the SAT-.

Curious, given Getbig's abundance of super-smarties, why Mr. Langan doesn't post here? Also, you'd think that "one of the smartest [persons]* in the world" would have his "genius" ideas published in a journal a lot more exclusive and prestigious than "Cosmos and History" ::)

Makes me wonder if Goodrum is adding up the results from different tests. 🤔 131 sounds a bit too high, even for him.

I doubt it. Vince Goodrum, CSN, MFT, HHP, CEO, holds multiple degrees and has over 200 online businesses. Most likely, his IQ is higher than 131.

On a second thought, yeah it must be higher. I put Goodrum on the 1% of the 1%. That would be 1 in 10,000. And 131 is merely 2 in 100. Yep, definitely higher.
-
120 on the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale at a very screwed up age 19, under controlled conditions, administered by the professor a PHD in Psychology. Not bad considering I was very confused and didn't know much at the time. In later life, I've scored 138- 140 ish on other tests not under controlled conditions. 138 being most common.

Yes, this is likely possible, though one would surmise that Vince Goodrum's IQ is substantially higher than the average population, given his penchant for business and fitness insight.

To give getbiggers a bit of knowledge about how one's IQ is determined.
For example, on the Weschsler Intelligence Scale for Children, there are 5 indexes: Vocabulary Comprehension Index, Processing Speed Index, Working Memory Index, Fluid Reasoning Index, and Visual Spatial Index. When testing is complete and scored, you receive a score for each individual index, which makes up your Full Scale Intelligence Quotient (FSIQ).
Most people who administer IQ tests tend to be more concerned with individual indexes, as opposed to the FSIQ, although the FSIQ has strong predictive validity. But, really, what's important is to determine each individual's cognitive strengths and weaknesses, which is determined by analyzing the five indexes above. You get a better understanding of the individual in this way. Obviously, each individual index may not matter if they are all equally high. It becomes more important to analyze each individual indexes when there is discrepancies between the 5 indexes, i.e., Verbal Comprehension is substantially higher than Processing Speed.

I remember the first test I ever took. It was in the 80's, in "Omni magazine". It said on the cover at the magazine stands "the worlds most difficult IQ- test". I figured why not try it out. I always wanted to know my IQ. Comparing myself to my peers, who doesn't. I figured it would be high since I started reading books at 3 years of age. I was always brighter than my mates in school. Even skipped a few grades. It gave me trouble being smarter and at the same time smaller than my classmates. I was beaten and bullied. And that was why I started ligting weights and doing martial arts...
Anyways about the Omni test. The verbal problems where pretty easy, having a much larger than average vocabulary, so I just grazed through them. The really difficult ones where the spatial and number sequence problems. Actually highly difficult... So as it turns out I actually happen to set a new record on that specific test. And that was one of the tests I scored the immeasurable result, because obviously, being the highest scorer I was the point of reference, thus immeasurable.
Actually I have taken IQ tests quite a few times over the years and in every single test I have scored 175 and above, which ranks me in a company of about 0.0000001% of the worlds population, or one in 10.000.000 by most credible test authors. In fact on quite a few IQ tests I have scored "immeasurable" result and I believe to many people doing IQ rankings i still hold that standard to this very day.

let's imagine for a second that Goodrum has a 131 IQ like he claims. Goodrum is an obese uneducated call center worker. Does that match having a 131 IQ?
Top civil servants, Professors and Scientists – 140
Surgeons, Lawyers and Architects/ Engineers – 130
School teachers, Pharmacists, Accountants, Nurses, and Managers – 120.
Foremen, Clerks, Salesmen, Policemen and Electricians – 110
Machine operators, Welders, and Butchers – 100
Laborers, Gardeners, Miners, Sorters and Factory packers – 90

I dunno, you're a sharp guy. Yours is probably pretty high.
I expect mine is in the mid 90s... 20 points higher than some other people around here.

Was always told my iq score were probably due to Hyperthymastic syndrome ( if i spelled that correctly?

Conversations, what time of day,the weather, etc...

Wow, so many super-genius savants congregating in this thread.
For what it's worth, here are the tests I've taken. 1,2,6 were school related, 3-5 were part of a test study I participated in during university for the training of school psychologists, 7-8 were for MENSA (with its low bar to entry ;D), 9-10 were for grad school.
1. SB (LM)
2. WISC
3. WAIS
4. House, Tree, Person Test
5. Ravens Progressive Matrices
6. SAT (first at 12, then at 17)*
7. CTMM
8. Wonderlic
9. GRE
10. LSAT
Modesty prohibits me from revealing my scores (like it matters :-X).
But here's the thing – extraordinary accomplishments, lucrative awards, grants, and fellowships, publications in respected journals and books (or its equivalent in other fields), hyper-competitive post-docs and appointments, and professional recognition from the inner sanctum of super achievers all beat stating a mere IQ score (big whoop). Moreover, my experience working alongside creative and multi-talented individuals with an average, by my estimates, of 140FSIQ and obscene cultural capital, super-high IQers don't generally talk about their scores; instead, such individuals "perform" their intelligence and talents. Also, my understanding is that SATs and ACTs only correlate to about .6 or so with IQ (they are only supposed to predict first year grades at university, and are not stand-ins for professionally administered IQ test, which are very complex and test a broad range of cognitive abilities; c.f., I don’t think MENSA accepts SATs and ACTs scores which were taken post-1994).

Hey, SF1900!
Yeah, I questioned the examiner about the HTP. I was also told, afterwards, that my drawings, which I admit were very detailed, were used to show their connection to my WAIS score (my file was kept as a future teaching example). There were a few other tests, though I can't remember their names. One involved copying dots, lines, and words on a page. Funny thing about the WAIS, the examiner asked: Who wrote Faust? -- I said, "Goethe," she kept silent. I then said, "Berlioz," she kept silent. I then said, "Marlowe," she kept silent; finally, I said "GOATH .... G.O.E.T.H.E., Goethe." She said, "OH. Yes, that right." Wow, I thought, rolling my mind's eye.
In any case, lots of smart dudes on this forum.

Hey, Kahn!
Projective Personality Tests have undergone a lot of flack in the psychological community, especially since their is a HUGE push toward empirical forms of treatment. However, there is also evidence that Projective Personality Tests are a good indicator of personality variables.
Either way, when conducting a psychological evaluation, any good evaluator would rely on MULTIPLE forms of data, including projective and objective measures of psychological functioning, self-report, as well as information gathered from other resources (parents, schools, etc.). No one piece of data is looked at in isolation. Its always compared to the other forms of data.
Ha, well, she probably was not familiar with Goethe. I am. My favorite Goethe quote, "When we treat man as he is we make him worse than he is. When we treat him as if he already was what he potentially could be, we make him what he should be.”

Awesome! I'll see your quote and ante this:
Faust:
Alas, I have studied philosophy,
The law as well as medicine,
And to my sorrow, theology;
Studied them well with ardent zeal,
Yet here I am, a wretched fool,
No wiser than I was before.
They call me Magister, even Doctor,
And for some ten years now
I’ve led my students by the nose,
Up and down, across, and in circles—
All I see is that we cannot know!
And this (which I quote in one of my pubs, with a nod to Jaroslav Pelikan):
"What you have as heritage, now take as task, for thus you will make it your own."

Not to start a big to-do, but does Gardner make a distinction between "intelligence" (in the case of kinesthetic, say) and what we might normally just consider skill/ability?
Guess I'm wondering if he's redefining ideas he thinks we've misunderstood, or if these intelligences measure something entirely different. I studied this some time ago, but I've since forgotten.

Well, gents, It just so happens I bumped into the man himself a few weeks ago in Berlin, while browsing the German Historical Museum. However, it wasn't the only familiar face I encountered there. Perhaps you might recognise the 'Getbigger' in this rather marvellous painting - it's before the anabolics robbed him of his glorious locks, of course.

I actually believe there are more types of intelligence than you show. Garder is grouping some diverse categories together. For example, to say someone's intelligent in Engineering is actually pretty broad considering all the different types of engineering.

There are probably thousands and thousands types of intelligence. However, you can't reasonably compile them into a coherent theory that will make sense to school systems. Some overlap is needed in order to make it applicable in the real world (school systems). You need some sort of coherent, feasible framework.

No intent to belittle Vince in any manner, but I fail to see, hear or read any of Vince's contributions to this board that would insinuate that he is any smarter/wiser than an average US citizen who has a 100-110 IQ.
Due to time constraints or lack of interest on an individual's GetBig submissions, I am overly selective on whose post I actually spend time readings and that could be one of the reasons why I fail to see any degree of great intelligence on Vince's part.
So I gotta admit that I am no great judge regarding his intelliegence even if I read everything he ever wrote., so the above is simply based on random observations.
And I am under the opinion that the various IQ tests that are available on the internet are not as accurate as those IQ tests administered by the professionals under ideal conditions.

Not to start a big to-do, but does Gardner make a distinction between "intelligence" (in the case of kinesthetic, say) and what we might normally just consider skill/ability?
Guess I'm wondering if he's redefining ideas he thinks we've misunderstood, or if these intelligences measure something entirely different. I studied this some time ago, but I've since forgotten.
Well, isn't it really all skills and abilities? When a child takes a WISC, a FSIQ is generated, which is a way of saying that the child may have strengths and/or weaknesses regarding different cognitive abilities. The developers of the WISC call the integration of 5 separate cognitive skills/abilities (Verbal comprehension, working memory, fluid reasoning, visual spatial, and processing speed) "intelligence." In a report, an evaluator may simply say, "Child X exhibits strengths in specific domains of cognitive ability, such as processing speed and working memory." It really all comes down to an individuals cognitive skills/abilities.
Gardner's main point was to challenge the traditional notion of intelligence, based on I.Q. He thought that there were other forms of learning and that children learn in multiple ways and that schools should cater to different learning styles.
I am not too sure if I answered your question. I don't think any IQ test makes a distinction between "intelligence" vs. "skills/ability." If you have strong processing speed, working memory, verbal comprehension, visual spatial, and fluid reasoning skills/abilities, then you will most likely have a high IQ. Its not like someone will say, "That person has a high IQ, which is separate from their skills or abilities." If you have high cognitive skills and abilities regarding X, you have a high IQ. They aren't "separate." So, I guess the question is: Is Gardner proposing that the combination of all 8 abilities makes up a person's IQ? Or, are they just separate, distinct abilities?
Further, we would also need to determine is if these 8 domains of "intelligence" could be improved upon. Take the WISC and its 5 cognitive indexes. These indexes are quite stable over time and do not show much variation--we know that a person's IQ is pretty much stable over time. Regarding Gardner's Theory, can some of these abilities be drastically improved upon? Could the Interpersonal Domain be drastically improved upon, i.e., can someone learn how to have great interpersonal skills? I suspect that answering this question would help determine if Gardner's theory was more intelligence based or ability based?
From a website:
The term IQ, or Intelligence Quotient, generally describes a score on a test that rates your cognitive ability as compared to the general population. IQ tests are designed to measure your general ability to solve problems and understand concepts

PS:
Sex and gender are the same thing. Creating a difference between the two is just a way to enable those that are mentally ill.
Homosexuaity is perfectly natural (yet still a defect from a reproduction/propagation-of-the-species standpoint) because it only refers to desire. Nobody can tell someone who they can and can't be attracted to.
Transgenderism, and especially non binary genderism however, is a mental illness that society has enabled and supported due to an extreme fear of being politically incorrect.

We wouldn't be I the same unit. Im classified as a "c". A's and b's are the guys who fight all the time and have behavior problems and act out. Like the kids in school who got kicked out. They bounce from prison to prison because of behavior. A and b are about the same, don't know why there's 2. A's and b's can only be around a'b' and c's.
I'm a C. C's are normal people who will fight if they have to but don't typically assault people or vuards. Lotta white collar guys, fraud, embezzlement, high level drug dealers up the food chain, not street corner dealers too dumb to turn a dime into a dollar. C's can be housed with anybody. But typically not with d or e because
D's are beta's. Meek pushover. Born victims. Usually pedophiles
E's are physically or mentally handicaped. Usually d's with health issues.

Notice: Don’t waste your time reading the following if you are not interested in MAGIC and how those magic tricks are done. And just a slight bit of life-long learning shit.
Many years ago I was a kid and attended a rich kid’s birthday party.
After the cake was cut a professional magician appeared in a puff of smoke and pulled a real live rabbit out of black top hat (as well as other amazing magical things that I have long since forgotten.).
A few years later I met a magician who noticed my interest and curiosity in how this magic stuff was done … and he told me that these magic tricks were very secret and were ‘invented’ by some of the smartest magicians in the world.
So in an effort to smarten up a bit .... I started buying magic stuff .... only to get completely disappointed when I found out how simple each trick was done and how neasily is was to convince others that you were magical.
So I did get smarter when it came to magic and fooling family and friends .... and somewhat poorer as magic stuff and how to do it was very expensive ….. as it still is today.
But now good friends still think I’m very smart because I can find the card that they are thinking of hidden under the ice-cubes in an ice-cube tray or embedded within the center of a roll of toilet paper, or tell three or more people the individual cards that they have looked at while spreading the deck in front of them .... and possibly my favorite ….. letting one's chosen card hop from the center of the deck to the top and flip over while resting on a table and untouched by human hands.
All fun stuff to play around with but very expensive as you are actually really only paying for the expensive ‘secret’ which is usually a ten-cent gimmick costing you $30.
So today I know lots of magic ‘secrets’ and have many ten-cent gimmicks …. but I sure as hell ain’t no smarter unless those secrets and gimmicks are life related which actually have ended by smarting me up a bit.
Are there any prestidigitators with secrets and gimmicks among these GetBig brilliant minds who can devise or reveal magic or lifetime ‘secrets’ that could result in millions of magical dollars without destroying the lives of others?

A boy enters a barbershop and the barber whispers to his customer, “This is the dumbest kid in the world. Watch and I’ll prove it to you.”
The barber holds a dollar bill in one hand and two quarters in the other, then calls the boy over and asks, “Which do you want, son?”
The boy takes the quarters and leaves.
“What did I tell you?” says the barber. “That kid never learns!”
Later, when the customer leaves, he sees the same boy coming out of the ice cream store. “Hey, son! Why did you take the quarters instead of the dollar bill?”
The boy licks his cone and replies, “Because the day I take the dollar, the game is over!”

Sex and gender are the same thing. Creating a difference between the two is just a way to enable those that are mentally ill.
Homosexuaity is perfectly natural (yet still a defect from a reproduction/propagation-of-the-species standpoint) because it only refers to desire. Nobody can tell someone who they can and can't be attracted to.
Transgenderism, and especially non binary genderism however, is a mental illness that society has enabled and supported due to an extreme fear of being politically incorrect.

Changing stuff and impact the majority because of a very very very little minority seems odd to me. Doesnt the USA have real problems to deal with?
-
It wouldn't be difficult to defeat an army of misfits such as ESF, bigmc and Goodrum!
Are you forgetting your 90-odd years old?

Absolutely! But not in the minds of these leftist liberal SJW who pervade every media outlet in the west.

Never taken an IQ test.
x2
Which test is the one for common sense?
I take that back. I was going by the list SF put up not realizing the wonderlic. I take it every year for shits and giggles because our NFL draft prep includes preparation for the test. This year I scored a 28. Still not in the NFL....dammit

They all tests "common sense." But, of course you knew this, considering you regularly administer IQ tests on a daily basis. ??? ???
The WISC tests 5 indexes, all of which are used on a daily basis. For instance, in every day dealings, you need to rely on working memory (remember where you put something) and visual spatial skills (to read a map). These skills are needed for everyone to function in daily life, at practically every second of the day.
-
As for the Wonderlic, its not routinely used in IQ testing. I wouldn't say the Wonderlic is a good measure of someone's IQ. There are much better tests for that.
-
If you went through public grade school, you were given an IQ test. It was the test that "doesn't count just do your best".

Yep, even up through high school. A buddy of mine had the highest IQ in the grade. They called and informed him. I didn't even know we were tested.

SF1900, would you agree to administer the WPPSI to Coach?

"Bit of course you knew this" if was it was really common sense then why do most Liberals not grasp it?

Not grasp what? Common sense?
From what I gathered, the republican conservatives do not grasp common sense, considering they think there is a talking snake in the garden of eden lol. Yup, that's some great common sense there lol
Anyway, if you want a discussion about common sense, first you would need to operationally define the term "common sense." I don't know how you're defining it.
So, go ahead and define it, then we can start the discussion.

FREAK, Thanks! Great story about that kid with the two-quaters.
I probably would have taken the dollar with no thought of tomorrow!

Wait, magic isn't common sense?
As far as cosmic mysteries go, invisible sky wizard certainly seems like the most reasonable explanation. Because elitist booksmart libs think smart IQ makes them all leftist education is why.

87% of collges in america are liberal, just 13% conservative, so of fucking course all the 'intellectuals' are going to lean left.
the brave few who go against the wind should be held in deep reverence

No, I'll fully admit that because you're a psychologist you'd win the debate with psycho babble. But I have to assume that since you don't believe in a creator you probably think you're right or because you make condescending comments toward republicans you must think. You obviously consider yourself an "intellectual" and probably think if "science" say so, it must me true and in some cases it is true but a lot of the it's complete bullshit.
In the political sense, commonsense tells me because left is almost always wrong otherwise they might be able to make a case for some of the policies they support instead of rioting. This tells me they don't know right from wrong. Noam Chansky said last week that the Republican Party is the most dangerous in the world. Really? Does he really believe that? So, Dr. Intellectual I've usually been right on most issues because the bullshit meter usually goes off when I hear, well...bullshit.
-
This pompous ass just devalued your profession 10 fold...
-
Chansky is a toad, that's just goodcommonsense.

Thats the problem indeed. This is NOT making America great again if you ask me.

Bodybuilding is in a sense an iq question. If you train AND eat correctly for 2 years...you'll know if you have the genetics for bodybyilding. Roughly %5 have the genetics...and continue with or without anabolics to build a really nice physique.
Those with iq's over 115 without bodybuikding genetics then mellow out with the training...decide against anabolics..get a beach body and develop other hobbies.
Those with iq's below 115 frantically scour troll ass internet boards for years for the right steroid cycle or bullshit "shock training" routine.
They spend thousands of hours and dollars on supplements, trainers and drugs and risk their health as they don't have the intellect to know better.
Kind of like the 5'6 guy determined to make the nba. It really comes down to intelligence.
That's all an iq question is anyway
Given these set of circumstances, which answer is most correct? That's the test.
Given I have shit genetics for bodybuilding...I should
A) Pound anabolics and risk health to overcome genetics which cant be done.
B) Build a beach body..make money..get girl.. move on to different, healthier hobby.
That question is about the 105 iq range.
