The USA is the best country in the world to live in...if....

As I have said; that IQ is off the charts. Someone like that would be changing the world.

You would think someone with a 160 IQ would be spending their time in Harvard's laboratories finding new fuel alternatives instead of peddling gas caps for $2/dozen. 

Actually, many people with very very high IQ's have problems in normal education as kids (because of the slow tempo, because of being quite different from others, they are frankly prone to emotional issues, and Debussey = extremely in favor of special schools for the gifted) and choose not to pursue higher education.

Also, when you come over a certain IQ score (135 - 140), the success predicting effects of IQ diminishes. As long as you are above 140 you can pretty much do well in any field. And the accuracy of IQ testing diminishes when you get above 140, meaning, the difference between an IQ of 152 and 162 does not nearly say as much when it comes to "intelligence differences" as a difference between 100 - 108.

Actually she is just insane.

Well, Asia Carera (the porn star) has an IQ between 152 - 156, and Debussey knows many people that scores this high (Mensa). Debussey still wonders why they bother talking to Debussey, since Debusseys IQ = 53

Jag having a 160 IQ = not impossible, but just very very very unlikely, and with her proven track record of showing a lack of brainpower, it just does not serve her cause. A 160 IQ (SD15) = 1 out of every 31560 (and due to her ethnicity, that ratio = even worse).

But if she actually can prove it, good for her

Well, I am just an idiot...

I haven't taken an IQ test in over a decade. Interestingly enough if I were to be judged on verbal skills/language skills alone, my IQ goes into the 130's.
My mathematical skills do not match my verbal ones. Bad genes.

Well, at least you don't lie about having a 160 IQ

Honestly, I don't think about IQ much. I just try to do my best with the mental faculties given to me, regardless of how they are reflected in terms of IQ. I would say that I am fairly smart, though not overly much, in layman's terms.

But clearly when someone claims a 160 IQ (especially a black person), he/she is either lying or...well (insert into blank) doing any number of other things.

Exactly. The odds of her claims being true = extremely small. With her being black, maybe 1:60000 or 1:150000.
