>tfw IQ of 140 Feels great to not be a brainlet. I actually

>>37346009
I know this is bait, but IQ fags are the worst.

If you use IQ as a measure of intelligence there are some things to think about. IQ does not in any way measure creativity and social intelligence. I would argue that logical thinking alone isn't the only way to measure intelligence.

ALL YOU FUCKING ROACHES ARE HILARIOUS TO ME

>>37346009
130+ IQ here (tester wasn't paying attention)
Grew up with other intelligent people basically my whole life, aside from a few retards.
Then I realized the "retards" were above average and the vast majority of people are subhuman.

Really charges the chestnuts

>>37346138
IQ is correlated with creativity.
Social intelligence is just a way of measuring how low you can sink to others' levels.

>tfw IQ of 105
Meh. At least I'm handsome

>>37346309
>112

I'm not even upset really, just happy that it's all quite arbitrary in the end.

>>37346270
The difference between you and a normal is the same as the difference between a normal and a retard.

Really grinds the pepper.

who else /chosenpeople/ here?

we (ashkenazi) have the highest number of geniuses per capita of all ethnic groups

>>37346138
My IQ score is 120, but I'm born with creativity that few men could dream of posessin. I have an almost perfect eye for photography, despite being entirely self taught, I can draw and paint like a professional artist with minimal training and fucking IKEA pencils, I can play guitar like Steve Vai after a few years of minimal practice and using the cheapest equipment known to man.

I struggle with basic math operations, and I can't write an essay to save my life. I', academically at the level of a literal retard, but I'm on par with Picasso and Beethoven at the same time. I was born to be THE artist and virtuoso of all time, but here I am, sitting drunk and high while ranting on an outdated, irrelevant, japanese degeneracy board full of the dregs of society and hte scum of the earth.


Life is a little strange like that.

I'm gonna rub a couple brainlet neurons together and assume you haven't accomplished near,y anything.

Geniuses don't rave on said decaying image boards with us lowly dregs and whine of their ineptitudes. They genrally just get shit done, virtuoso my ass.

>>37346400
OP was off in saying 130 is cutoff, really it's around 120. 120-140 are about the same, more up to the individual, and the fact that the test is fallible. 150-180 are God-tier, but 150 isn't quite there.

Anything beyond that needs to be put in charge of all of humanity.

However, as a 120, beware! Your intelligence isn't hard-coded, you can lose it and become a pseudo-intellectual in a heartbeat.
>tfw my dad is a 120, thinks he is genius, makes "solid logical arguments" in favor of his theology using a mix of logical fallacies, ad hominem, and general bullshit. With maybe one or two good points he stole from a book

>>37346009
If you actually head an IQ that high you would realize that telling others only distances them from you. IQ alone isn't something to be proud of, or sad of. Unless, of course, you have an IQ comparable to a rock, like 80.

>>37346487
IQ is only comparable to the achievements generated by such intelligence.

A 140 NEET is shit compared to 100 master carpenter.

I have a top .1% IQ, which puts me at at least 145

Hello roachies

I am actually severely depressed and experience almost no joy from any activity. Not a great existence. I'd rather be a normal person who could easily make friends/gf than an asshole/antisocial smart person

Who am I kidding, I love being a genius, but it's an empty sense of superiority that ultimately means little

Smart people can experience what it's like to be stupid by drinking alcohol or doing drugs.
I'll never understand what it's like to be smart like a deaf person will never understand sound.
I wish I were smart.
I swear to God I'd do something useful with my intellect. I'd study programming or get a college degree. I can't do those things with a low IQ.
I just wish I had the capability to do something useful.
I envy smart people so much.

>>37346674
>Who am I kidding, I love being a genius, but it's an empty sense of superiority that ultimately means little

Thank you for wording it perfectly for me. I came close, but not being as smart as you, I thank you for perfecting my work. I will save these words forever.

Like, I wouldn't trade my intelligence for anything, but I realize it's, on average, detrimental to my mental health and social wellbeing

>>37346487
140 isn't all that high and is right in the middle of the "look at my MENSA credentials" range. It means "smarter than 99.62% of [white american] people". Which means that out of every 10'000 there will be around 37 people smarter than you. So about 74 people in every average sized city. Nothing special.

Remarkably high begins around 150-160. That's where all those visionary mathematicians, theoretical physicists, composers, etc lie.

>>37346725
you're welcome

Yeah it sucks. I've read all the studies correlating high IQ to less mental illness and I can only think (or at least hope) it's just due to them not having a large enough part of their test set part of the extremely high IQ segment of the population

I personally feel like I can't connect to anybody. I am definitely a narcissistic asshole but at the same time, in a way it's almost justified. I excel at everything I do, but I make almost no friends in the process. It's hilariously sad. I just wish I could find a *grill* like me.

>>37346138
Why do people feel the need to call creativity intelligence? Just let it be it's own thing just like intelligence. Also social intelligence is just not having autism it isn't necessarily good you will just be very normie if you have it.

>>37346775
It's not about being one-in-a-million, it's about not being a literal retard, which is ~120 and lower

>>37346775
No vocaroo of you shredding then? that's what I thought. What a sad man.

You probably are more intelligent than me. I don't think I have a high IQ but I am very interested in certain things. I play piano and write music. I can learn music pretty quickly if I sit down and practice for a while. I also put hours into writing music. I'm trying to master the art of music composition. I envision writing a symphony for orchestra someday once I've finished my piano pieces.

Other than that, I'm very stupid in the real world. A real dud to most people and deemed crazy by some. I fail with women and I have poor social intelligence or it would seem that way. I was always the last kid to finish tests in class. I'm BAD at anything involving menial labor. I'm clumsy and a bit forgetful. I'm also bad at managing my feelings. I'm too sensitive and can't always think. The only thing I seem to do well in the real world is be mindful about how I spend my money and try and save up from the job I have.

Basically true except that unlike a car, IQ effects the core of your being.

But basically yeah

To a point.

Some newton-like scientist talked about intelligence as potential to do work - if unused it's useless. Who the fuck cares how cultured you are as a NEET if you do nothing with it

>>37347246
True. Now that I think about it, thinking of IQ in any way EXCEPT what you said is basically just moralfagging what you view to be the "correct" way of experiencing life. Which, of course, I am biased to believe mine is better.

A kid's iq is fairly meaningless. Children's absolute iq scores are quite a bit lower than adults'. Various environmental factors cause kids to develop at different rates, but they generally plateau close to the average of both their parents in young adulthood. You can have a stellar IQ at 10, but plateau at 15 instead of 20 like someone else and thus be overtaken since their absolute limit is higher, even though it took longer to reach it.

Pic kinda related

>>37347340
This, the heritability of IQ increases with age.

some of you guys might have a high IQ and boasting about it is good and all but if you're sitting around on this board for the most part during your free time you're not really that different to the rest of us desu

>>37347434
Perfectly possible, all it means you developed at a slower pace early on. On the fipside, this is how all those "smart but lazy" stories come about. Those kids really were smart, they just aren't anymore. And all these "muh hard work" intellectuals just became innately smarter through no achievement of their own, though they likely have developed a better work ethic from their younger years.

And now what. I'm still a balding, 3/10 KV. Everybody around me is a brainlet. All my compsci friends are humorless brainlets who know nothing about anything but computers. The average normo is so far away intellectually from me that I can't meaninfully connect on any level. Daily, i continue to find that all too often, even as a layman in a given subject, I'll know more than the "experts" I meet. I'll always be outranked socially by brainlettos. Women are on a completely different astral plane of existence. Their whole reasoning process and daily existence makes me cringe physically, which is why I'll never be able to have sex, a family or female touch. JDIMSA
