Maybe there's something to be said for arse licking. Where I used to work there were some people who were impressively gifted at it.
What's is Magnus Carlsen's IQ?
What is it with people and IQ? It's a couple of squares that you put in order and THAT is what judges your entire intelligence, prospects, willpower and essentially brainpower? What a ridiculous concept.
Stay away from things that are supposed to tell you how bright you are, if you have talents, exploit them, everyone does. Sod IQ, it's for people who like to sit about all day thinking how intelligent they are. Get on and do something.

Clejettu isn't a social conservative. He's a navel-gazing utopian lefty who believes society should foot the bill while his daughter writes poetry and plays with feathers for a living.
From an educational standpoint, intelligence is now seen as a complex mix rather than a single construct.
Aha, so the retards who come up with this crap finally wised up a bit.
_yiquan_ you realize you're commenting on posts made a year ago, and you're basing your disagreements on complete guessing/personal opinion anyway.
dude....Kasparov only has like a 135 IQ.even I have a higher one than that.
this is not true. kasparov likely has a much higher iq than this. and also 135 is in fact a couple SD's from the norm, it's above the 95th percentile.
I have heard it too. Kasparov has an IQ in the 130-150 range, considering possible uncertainity. IQ is only loosely related to pure chess talent. OTOH Fischer had scored 184 in an IQ test.
The Czech with highest IQ measured ever is only class C chess player unable to make any progress.
I love how so many people claim to have astronomical iqs anonymously on the internet. how come you don't ever meet such people in real life if they are apparently so freaking common?
Internet is full of fake prodigies.
Smarter than you
Don't underestimate killer instincts of cold-blooded predators.
_yiquan_'s instincts are quite deadly. He waits about year after your comments, lets you get comfortable, you let your guard down... then bam! He posts 10 replies. I mean, by then you probably haven't logged in in 6 months anyway. Very sneaky.

Yeah, if we believe all the claims the average IQ maybe is about 150 here? Lol.
If that's true, IQ is heavily overrated ;-)

wrong pronoun.
Although I realize yiquan's instincts are deadly, I was talking to the renumeratedfrog, as he started the thread, lol.
Well I think I am not alone in considering intelligence to be more about cognitive powers than about being a pleasant social animal who understands when his friend has the blues, or about some douchebag who knows how to arse-lick his way to the top.
The liberal left has a habit of subtly changing the meaning of language so that we can all be "equally intelligent in our own diverse way". Pseudomarxist BS.
IMHO.
No, you are not alone.
This is a common perception among social conservatives, who are by their very nature, socially stagnant and incapable of adaptation. It would go against your self-interest to recognize that which you can'tpossibly possess as anything worthwhile.
