I Don't Understand People (1 Viewer)

The smartest people I know usually make wagers on their intelligence with prizes such as eating underwear. I'll take the gas monkey.

 
Nobody ever said having a high IQ means you make good decisions. Like gloating about a high IQ on a message board.

MC sounds Aspergery also.

 
Interesting quiz. I found that I had a few answers that are definitely the Autism-heavy answers but ultimately scored well below the autism range. Your score says "Autism likely". :shrug:
ditto.

I scored a 10.

My son is very high functioning Asperger's. He's 26 and he was diagnosed at 13. We put him in College Learning Experience program for college and it was the best money we ever spent.

 
My IQ is 176

We could be friends
I'll eat my shorts if you have a 176 IQ.
Put your money where your mouth is.I will take that challenge.
I don't know about all this but the imagery of Christo chewing on some enormous tighty whities is pretty awful.
If I score under 150 I will eat his underwear.Between 150 -175 i will call it even

176 and he sucks his skid marks

Deal christo?
Already walking back from the ledge, huh :lmao:
If I am going to risk eating your shorts there has to be a range. An I.Q test can vary by several points each time a person takes one.Its also been 20 years which includes some potrntial brain damage. How would you account for that?

Nsme your terms
I'm taking the under
Wear.

 
I've got $100 for the pot to get MCGM's IQ tested. Anyone else?

I propose after the cost of the test, he matches the pot and the winning side gets the whole thing. Has to be a professionally administered test.

He's claiming 176--he has to score 160 or higher to win. The SD in IQ tests is 16 so that gives him a full SD of latitude.

I'll throw in another hundred.

 
Been that way my whole life. Emotions, motivations, psychology, and all those things that determine actions. It's all like a foreign language to me. Sure, give me some time to sit and think it through and I can piece together all of the "they did this, so he felt like that, which made her feel this way, and their friends do such and such to cause action X and reaction Y and then ultimately a solution Z." But put on a movie that weaves a complex story line within the intricacies and ambiguity of human emotion and subsequent decisions, and I'll simply try to enjoy the special effects and cinematography and sort it all out later.

I'm not dumb, either. IQ of 150+ (HEY LOOK AT ME). Successful in my field. Always near the top of my class. I can learn anything that is based on logic, technology, and/or tangible, defined sets of rules. And i usually pick it up pretty quickly.

Even this message is challenging to write as I struggle to identify my own emotions, motivations, and layers of consciousness. Anyway, carry on.

Oh wait, this wasn't the anonymous confessions thread?
yes, I'm quoting and replying to my own original post. what of it?

Actually doing it b/c there's another facet...I'm athletic, not bad looking, and generally popular back when that meant something. So I've been given every opportunity in life to be great with people, to have them want to be around me, and to genuinely like me. But I just can't do it and always end up trashing relationships (personal and professional). Like a kid riding a bike and the wheels slowly start to wobble and twist, eventually throwing everything and everyone around into a massive pileup.
Do you get depressed? Maybe bipolar?

How would he pay that off? Dong drawings and t-shirts (of dong drawings)?

money will be held by a trustworthy person i.e. a mod

 
MCGM--where are you located?

I think we should find a local psychologist and tell them we are considering hiring MCGM pending an IQ test. They will report the results directly to us.

 
Were you emotionally abused as a kid? Or physically?

Our brains tend to develop defense mechanisms in such cases. A byproduct is sometimes a lack of empathy. This could be why others' emotions confuse you.

 
Can we take this IQ thing somewhere wkse? I'm sure the OP is thrilled with his self-disclosure being derailed by a pissing match.

He's in NYC I believe.

This should be very easy to find someone to administer the test.

 
Does everyone here actually know what their IQ is?

My mom would never tell me what mine was when I was a kid. I've wondered at times.

No. But everyone who's posted about it on fbgs is in the .01 percentile in the world(I think mop claimed +150)

Sounds like you might be a sociopath.
:kicksrock: I've never hit or hurt another human being. I feel tremendous guilt at almost all times. I apologize often. An most importantly I believe that truth is concrete and independent of what I or any other human being says.

So, no. I'm not a sociopath. Try again
INTP.

:hi:
pretty close actually. some minor differences and 1 or 2 major ones that are off.

OP has Aspergers and thinks this is normal.
I have trouble deciphering that comment. Lets take a peak inside how i spent way too much time considering your reply. Do you mean I think MCGM is normal? Or perhaps that the bickering and derailment is normal? Or is it because this thread has diagnosed me as Aspy that I think my being so is normal? Then Or is that a stab at humor that I completely missed? Or maybe some combination of some or all of the above.
