as someone who qualifies for mensa but like, i ain't paying a subscription fee to be in the smart people club, that sounds really dumb (and also IQ testing is sketchy at best to begin with)
yes, i always appreciate a big booty, on any ethnicity or gender, so latinas are indeed included
Haha I always thought that people running mensa are the real geniuses for basically selling self-esteem
Exactly! Mensa is essentially the filter for people who think they’re smart but actually aren’t.
People at the peak Dunning-Kruger point of intelligence - just above average intelligent enough to feel they're "above" most people but not enough to properly understand the full nature of intelligence and its limits.
paying a subscription
Waat (screaming in a low iq)
Mensa is for people smart enough to qualify, but dumb enough to get scammed.
IQ testing as many other things, has racist origins and is for all intents and purposes quite useless imo
In the process of diagnosing ADHS (dyslexia, other) disabilities, a IQ test is used to establish a baseline of what other people with a similar result can and cannot do and this is compared to what you can and cannot do.
IQ tests do have uses.
A reddit mod for a mensa sub sounds like possible the most insufferable combination imaginable
If you happened to have an unusually high IQ, why you would you choose to join Mensa, or be a moderator on Reddit for that matter?
The smartest thing you can do is obfuscate your level of intelligence, not brag about it. That's just how you end up doing more work and getting blamed by everyone around you.
Obfuscate your intelligence? Being a reddit mod sounds like it's part of the plan, then.
Oh snap, you're right. It's like a 200 IQ move. 😂
As far as I can tell, most people out there have expectations about high IQ people which are straight out of Hollywood films and wholly unrealistic, so best just leave then with whatever de facto impression of brightness they have about you than mention a number and trigger the "Mental Superman" expectations.
Also going around parading your IQ falls straight into the rule "the more a person brags about some great personal quality, the less strong it is" - if you're really that bright, brave, strong, beautiful, confident and so on, there is no need to mention it since it's generally obvious to others.
Also going around parading your IQ falls straight into the rule “the more a person brags about some great personal quality, the less strong it is”
Or it's your only quality. The main reason to join Mensa is that you haven't accomplished anything better since the IQ test you took as a youth.
And yet, their comment was on point. Maybe its like w double negative
