Why, why, why do you continue to torture yourself by going there?

For the same reason most people slow down to look at a car wreck.  It's interesting to look at carnage and wreckage.  DU is truly a portrait of both.

Boy that's still funny! NOT!

I love how apparently everyone that posts on online forums has an IQ of over 140, and scored better than 1300 or 1400 on their SAT's.  Also everyone who was born in the 50's also attended Woodstock.

Well W has an MBA from Harvard.
I think that's a little more relevant to running the country than a law degree from Boston College.

My IQ has been estimated at 135 or so. I just can't concentrate on that goddamn test.

Oddly enough, I fit all the above criteria.  What puzzles me is that while I can document all the above, I am not a liberal... Maybe the Libs are lying?

Obviously there are some people that fit it, but with all the people that claim to be in the >90% of intellect, then all of the last 10%tile must post online constantly using 4 or 5 aliases. I just always find it funny that people have to make up things to try to impress people online.

I don't drink. I am on Adderal now, that helps. I only got an 1110 on the SAT, but I have good excuses. I hadn't taken a match class in 18 mos. or any class in 6 mos. I had 3 hours of sleep, and untreated ADD. I got 720 verbal. If I had gotten all of the analogies right it would have been a perfect score. I am pretty decent at analogies, but theirs made no sense.

Quoted: I'm smarter than both of em by a margin! I guess that is why I am not in politics.

Roger that...

1320 SAT, 32ACT, National Merit Scholar. As long as we are comparing notes here. (I peaked in High School)

I qualified at least 150 in 3rd grade (that's the cutoff for the gifted and talented [i. e. a shitload more work] program. I score somewhere around 130 on most IQ tests I take. I haven't taken the SAT, the ACT, or any SAT-IIs, but I did get 94th percentile on my PSAT last year. Oh, and I got a gold star in kindergarten. Eat it, Bush and Kerry!

HA - HA

I was referring to the DUer that posted something about his IQ, etc. It just made me think about a lot of other places where I have seen people make such comments. I just think that it is really funny that people try to make themselves seem smarter on the internet. I don't care how smart people are, if what they say makes since, it makes them look much smarter than boasting about their IQ. I've never actually taken an official IQ test, but I usually get about 8 or 9 out of 10 on those Mensa puzzle things, that's individually on them whenever I feel like it. I scored a 1350 on the SATS, and I'm an interdisciplinary engineering and business major, Dean's list. The thing about IQ is that it's really only potential, it has nothing to do with how much you use and what you can accomplish. I'd rather have a guy as POTUS with a 100 IQ and us it all the best he can, then someone that has a 150 and doesn't us any of it. I realize that here there are a lot of professional's (doctors/lawyers/repair/IT pro's etc) that are very intelligent, and this is a good source for any type of information, and that as firearm owners I think we have a little more common since(I've met a lot less radical idiotic gun owners than any other class of people). Please not that I meant no disrespect to ARFCOM, and that it was the DU link that got me thinking.

My IQ is 247.

I scored 1625 on the SAT(extra credit for taking it in Greek).

I was Lindbergh's co-pilot.

I was a bonus marcher.

I was a Navy/Marine Corps recon sniper serving on TDY with the Army through most of Viet Nam.

I was at Woodstock, and I fucked that mud-smeared hippie chick you see in the news photos. Tiger Woods is our love child, but he never writes.

I lost 65 lbs in 3 days by eating nothing but gun show jerky. My eyeglass lenses are perfectly transparent, and I shoot 2 moa groups with a .45 SAA at 200 yds.

Condoleezza Rice calls me all the time asking for advice on matters of national security, but I won't answer her questions because I suspect it's a ploy to get in my pants. Gisele Bundchen does the same thing, but she just says "Could I please get in your pants?" I won't answer her either because I can't respect a woman who doesn't respect herself enough to pretend that she admires me for my intellect.

That's FLAL1A in a nutshell.

got me a 1330 on SAT. Perfect 800 score in english, bad score in math, I cant even add it up to figure it out! haha. How/where do you get your IQ tested? I got top 98% on the Asvab if that matters..........
