    I will never again mention that Dalek Dave was the poster of the One Millionth Lounge Post, nor that it was complete drivel.

    What date? I'm turning 22 this October, too. :) But everyone I've met the first time said I look like a 16-year-old girl.

      I totally agree with you. When I was 17, I've got 160 for my IQ. Now, after 4 years, I take another IQ test and I just got ~150. Truly stress affects how the brain works after all. And, I don't mind having lower IQ, 'coz not everything in life was taught in school. You just have to know it by yourself. The more you get older, the more you learn (from experiences).

      Which is what I've learned. Book smarts are great to serve as a foundation to build on, but that itself is not the whole picture. Experience is the true teacher in life. It's one thing to recite a book, it's a whole other to know from firsthand experience. Some of the folks what would test low on an IQ test are usually happy and smiling and have no social qualms. So who's really the smart ones? :wtf:

        Before, I always say that the 'smart ones' don't exist for I know that everyone has their dumb side. But now that I have a different perspective about 'smart ones', I can say that they are the ones who enjoy their life to the fullest despite the fact that they are not genius nor rich.

          I presume there won't be any answers under 110 in a place for coders ! Also, I want to know if Im clever enough to do something really important at computers!( e.g working at intel,finding zero day exploits etc )..of course I know fluid intelligence is not the only factor...but it surely plays a major role! So...my Intelligence Quotient is from 128 to 145(different tests,different results...most accurate was at~130 I think) Is that good enough for what I want? And what's yours? Random fact: guitars with floyd rose tremolo system (floating tremolo)have less sustain than those with a fixed bridge since there is much energy lost on the bridge..sustain also varies by the wood used,distance between string and fretboard and material used at the end of the strings...who knows...maybe a stranger will call you and say "if you tell me a disadvantage of floating tremolo system i will give you 1.000.000€

          You know how, when you lose your virginity, somebody just has to ask "was it good for you?" ? Well, that's what your question is like. If you have to ask, then you know it's not. Ah. I guess I just answered my question. Marc

            I agree. And I'd add to that knowing yourself as a person to know which new experiences would make you happy. If you're a nerd, be the best damn experienced nerd ever. If you're a bad influence, well be the best damn experienced bad influence ever. Living up to your potential whatever it may be is smart in my book.

                Nice advice. :) So, if I am a bummer, then I've been the best experienced bummer ever, I'm entitled to be called a 'smart one'? ;)

                  I suppose there's some clueless guy (ie, sucker) you could bum off of to make him happy. Then you're happy. He's happy. Win-win. I mean you may have to massage his feet on occasion, but a girl's gotta do what a girl's gotta do.

                      The 4th. Seems like us youngsters are overtaking, Brisingr Aerowing isn't any older IIRC.

                      I will never again mention that Dalek Dave was the poster of the One Millionth Lounge Post, nor that it was complete drivel.

                                  Emotional Quotient is a lot more important than Intelligence Quotient. Just remember that when in a few years you ask: "If I'm so smart, why am I not rich?"

                                      To me, a bum is someone who mooches off someone else.

                                      ah. Mine's definition is subtler. A bum, AFAIK, is someone who spend time wandering and/or usually unemployed.
