Everything by Bukowski

>Intelligence determines work ethic.
Citation please.
>>9300617
Yeah, that's transparently not true. Just saying this is almost confirmation of a low IQ.
>>9300646
the truth is the exact opposite tbqh. Conscientiousness determines work ethic, which has no correlation with IQ.

"smart but lazy" is real, but anyone who thinks they deserve any sort of reverence, praise, respect or admiration for being just that should be punched in the teeth.

That book was hard to get through.

no positive correlation*
>>9300662
Determining someone's IQ, a measure their entire intellectual capacity, off of one statement is just as stupid as what I said

Interesting read.
I posted the bait above. Obviously smart people can be lazy.
I'm just sick of the stereotypical person that qualified as "smart" in something in their life and now lives a life of failure and laziness while mentally masturbating to their lost potential.

Probably not as sick as people are to people like you having a wank to 'work ethic', mate.
>>9300773
True.
>>9300773
You're right.
It's equally annoying, but on the other side of the spectrum. It's also threatening to other people which.
