Anyone a genius? Whats your IQ?

Ahh the thrill of finding a 10 year old Playboy in my father's workshop. I feel sorry for the youth of today. Straight on to bigmamafloozie dot com and bang!...innocence completely and irrevocably wiped.

Don't remember ever reading any articles in Playboy.

There aren't actually any articles. That's just marketing hype for our wives.

I agree, smut is so much more fulfilling when you have to work for it.

What started out as an intellectual discussion…………………...

Here, lemme help ya keep it up:

1. IQ tests are bollscheit. I have my reasons. Don't make me say them. But suffice it to say, the mentality and values that created these tests as reliable a measure of "intelligence" is what has created misery and sense of alienation for so many in exchange for toys and baubles.

2. As a necessary corollary to that, most kinds of WORK (institutional and corporate) is (or eventually becomes) bollscheit.

and http://www.theguardian.com/science/2...cademic-system

3. And a quote from a smart guy, Daniel C. Dennett

“The juvenile sea squirt wanders through the sea searching for a suitable rock or hunk of coral to cling to and make its home for life. For this task, it has a rudimentary nervous system. When it finds its spot and takes root, it doesn't need its brain anymore, so it eats it! It's rather like getting tenure.”

Conclusion: Most people today are super smart in a very narrow, stupid way, such that they cannot recognize the value of idleness or experience (aka "wisdom"), and consider themselves happy and successful if they are given a lot of said toys.

Yes it is interesting how IQ has evolved as the THE intelligence indicator. I do not feel qualified to comment on its legitimacy or not to be honest.
