did he fill out a meme iq test, or is this real?

also, not literature.

>>16235434
>tfw have a lower IQ than Rogan

>>16235434
>another successful millionaire (this one a manlet) I have a much higher IQ than

I'm sure I'll be successful someday... I'm only 30, plenty of time to get good at something...

>>16235504
Good to know there are 30 yo here. I still have several years ahead of me before I can consider myself an irredeemable failure.

>>16235504
Ain't worth it bro. It's tyranny of the majority. A debating league w cash would be good if system is good to get clear winners

>>16235461
Even though some of these fellows produced some writings that are important in the field of politics, philosophy and science, you are pointing at them because of their pseud popular works.

>>16235468
It's a website where you pay 20 bucks to get your test's results. They also have a bunch of fake reviews for the payment processing step and there's merely 20 questions being asked.

What do you think?

feels bad i thought i was smarter

>>16235587
if he payed that much money on an internet test that only has 20 questions to measure his intelligence, then, not only is it not accurate, it looks like he's actually retarded.

>>16235628
Take it and see

>>16235632
not the same guy but if you pay for this shit you may aswell substract 20 points from the results

>>16235611
joe rogan isn't smart.
he's the posterboy of western consuption-oriented mediocrity.

>a literal midwit
who would have known

>>16235542
im pointing at them because they're the most towering intellectuals of our age. I also point at them to offset the retarded religious/metaphysical bullshit that gets spammed on this board. after hundreds of years I thought that our society was getting closer to enlightenment, to curing the mind virus known as 'god', just so see idiots on this board unironically reading christian shit, German idealist nonsense, and fucking plato. someone has to push back against these superstitions.

>>16235611
Also it's not a legitimate test.

Pretty sure this one is fairly accurate.

>>16235611
Mensa norway has a good test.

This one is fake.

How is this a literature-related thread?

>>16235434
My IQ is 20,000 and I don't even know what the phrase Latin race means.

>>16235710
say "literature" or "books for this feel" and it instantly becomes a literature topic. didn't you know???

>People actually measure their consciousness by a magic quantified intelligence number
>They feel personally challenged when a man who is commonly thought to be stupid gets given high smart number
Modernity truly is incredible

Manlets stay living in incel's heads rent free

>>16235737
lol i felt that, desu. it's all so daft ahh

>>16235434
Does anyone else find this pathetic? Why would you worry about your IQ when you are a successful millionaire? Just find some hot bitch who is smarter than you and have kids with her.

>>16235434
>online iq test
It’s not accurate

IQ is good for roughly dividing people into three buckets:

<85 = literal retards (16%)
85 to 115 = standard morons (68%)
>115 = non-imbecilic people (16%)

It's not very good at distinguishing the great intellects among the merely intelligent.

Hi fellow book lovers!

Recently, I've been speaking to a lot of friends and they all share the same sentiment.
The process of selling or giving away books online is not as simple and straightforward as it should be.
As a result, I created a questionnaire to help us readers and I was wondering if you could spare 2 minutes of your time to fill it.
The purpose of this questionnaire is to evaluate how easy and convenient it is for other book readers to sell/give away books.
The questionnaire is completely anonymous and also covers those not looking to sell books.

Please share and leave feedback if you can.
Thank you in advance.
Steve, a fellow book lover

Don't have an email, sorry.

Damn. What does this mean?

>>16237329
It means you have an iq of 135

>>16235991
You're either really smart or a complete retard.

>>16235698
Like half the questions are just “add them together except where it overlaps” I refuse to believe this can be all that accurate. Even a retard could figure that out and get most of them right.

>>16235434

>115IQ coper

>>16238640
No, I actually scored far far above that. That's exactly what makes me skeptical. The average IQ among physicists at Cambridge was measured to be 127. That tells me it isn't capturing something important.

>>16238626
Link?

>>16238484
Congratulations. You're smarter than the average bear.

>>16235691
Considering 100 is average, 27 points above that wouldn't exactly be midwit any more.

>>16235737
>everyone I know claims to be in the 125-145 range

Same with height really. They'll try to convince me they're 6' when I'm 5'8 and they're shorter than me.

>>16238764
>127 for group of people doing work that requires intelligence

If IQ were legit for measuring the high end, one would expect to see a range of 135 to 155.

>>16239126
Maybe not. Maybe IQ is like height. There are lots of tall people, lots of very tall people. But there’s no 50ft people.

>>16239073
What if the SD is like 200? Then it would be very mid-wit.

>>16235504
Are you currently working at getting good at anything anon?

>>16235434
Literally got 145 and I'm a fucking loser lmao.

>>16239458
Shut up brainlet

>>16235698
There are no good online iq tests, I took that one, I got 145. I’ve also had a professional test done (as part of wider behavioural testing), in which I got 127. The professional test was more time constrained and more complex, it’s not just shape puzzles, and you are constantly monitored. That test is extremely lenient

>>16239098
Sure big boy

>>16235461
And they say there's nothing to physiognomy.

>102 IQ

>>16237329
It means that you have scored 135 points on this particular IQ test. Nothing more, nothing less.

>>16237329
It means your ego has been stroked

>>16235698
>your iq was measured to 112
But I- I'm intelligent, I've never met someone as smart as me.

>>16240975
No, you're suffering from narcissistic personality disorder.
Don't worry, you won't believe me or anyone else criticizing you.

>>16235504
stop measuring success by material excess, dumbass.

can joe solve this?

>>16235434
How the fuck is it that high? He always talks like a naive child.

>>16240982
Nahh I'm intelligent. I'm much more intelligent than everyone else, or maybe I just know more than most people and it "gives me the tools of thought" as it were. What are your thoughts on this anon?

>>16237329
it means you can make brainlets seethe

>>16241031
you are a wise midwit, probably. wisdom and intelligence are separate, I would argue wisdom is more important in this age.

>>16240989
>tfw smart enough to recognize the pattern quickly but not smart enough to figure out the next sequence quickly and it took me like 10 minutes

>>16241044
Wahh, I want to be smart as well as wise, wahwahwahwah.

>>16239611
apart from my amazon gf who totally exists

>>16241059
accumulate wisdom and supercharge your intelligence with it.

>>16239098
IQ frauding is infinitely worse than height, It's much worse than Penis size frauding so this give you a picture.

Unironically at least 30% of the normies braindead i know think they've top 0.2% IQ (140+) because of facebook or online meme test. It's dumb people being dumb which result in everyone thinking they're smarter than they're, by a margin.

>>16241066
Ahh, but I think there have been many wise men that did not have the intelligence to create something truly new.

It is almost 6AM and I have been drinking all night, got a 121. Pretty good considering I had to squint and wink and do eye gymnastics to block out the doubles. Curious how I will do after sleeping it off.

>>16241069
any wise man would know that there is nothing new under the sun. you have a very midwit idea of what a smart person is.

>>16240989
i'm going to have to go with 1 as well.

>>16241108
Oh anon that's about the most midwit take possible, there being nothing new under the sun does not suppose we know everything under it does it? Or that, as Carlyle said, everything is symbol of the divine idea, that symbol now must not be replaced with symbol then. To deny what I say is to deny history, in just another modern reductivity, like the physicist ideologue's who for them man is nothing but an animal in the pursuit of sex and reproduction and so forth.

Do you seriously believe this is a good measure of intelligence? Is life just an autistic video game and nothing more than solving puzzles? I feel like the whole IQ thing is a big reason for the dehumanizing shitty society we live in. I will always look down on people who look down on other people, but I can not bring myself to judge someone for their score in such a retarded test. That said I have to admit I never took an IQ test and I would probably fail utterly. But why people care so much about it is beyond me.

>>16241140
*must not it be replaced with symbol then*

>>16241097
>>16241130
correct, or at least I have reached the same conclusion and can explain it. I don't know the official answer.

>>16241145
IQ can be measured in number of ways and so far when it comes to the non-marginal score it seems to work very well, because it correlates with a long list of things. it's bad at measuring extreme cases.

>>16241150
Okay now anon you're just sounding dumb, this also isn't an argument.

>>16241195
why would i waste my time arguing with a verified midwit?

>>16241205
You know pal, you shouldn't take iq tests so seriously. Well for one it's ridiculous to suppose one can measure intelligence on a quantitative level, though it obviously does say something in a general way as with blacks, as well that for example it has to factor in my adhd, and here is your ego rub and defence of the score you have gotten, I've gotten an iq score of 130 on the same test and same site in the past, it's an internet test anon that it's more unreliable than a real test. And of course as it said itself it cannot correctly cater to certain types of people which I would not be able to say on this site, for obvious reasons.

You throw out essentially meaningless reddit buzzword statements like "knowing there is nothing new under the sun is true wisdom!" where you don't even know what that would involve, as in your use as I've shown was utterly stupid and unthinking.

>>16241238
the only ego stroke i need
is your seethe

>>16241261
Anon, you called me a midwit when I merely said that level of intelligence likely holds one down, then I said that your use of the "sun" phrase was quite midwit in reaction to my sensible ideas. Then you proceed to claim that because (if we go by IQ being an accurate measurement of intelligence) my score in the IQ was not particularly high, that I have no ability to call others midwits, but you called me a midwit in the first place when I said that wisdom rests on intelligence still, so are you agreeing with me now or still disagreeing with the midwit?

>>16241289
shut up midwit

>>16241177
i wonder if we had the same deduction:
firstly the smallest block alternates corners, so the small block must be at the bottom. meaning it must be 1,3,or 4
then the other horizontal blocks are moving to left from smallest to largest and then returning, which means the largest must be left and the second largest block must be on the right, which knocks out 3 and 4 leaving 1
the dots don't appear to be moving but are increasing in number and are simply obscured by the blocks.
The next block would be like pic related except with one more hole somewhere i think

If you come to think of it, the guy can talk very fluidly with some professors from the top universities in the world, even though he actually worked in fights or something of the sort.

You need a good intelligence to be able to do that. One thing is me or you talking to, say, Roger Penrose or Richard Dawkins; another thing is a guy whose life consisted in watching people beat each other up engaging in intellectual conversations and still being able to be entertaining for millions of people, as well as arousing the sympathy of most of his guests.

stage one: first dot appears
stage 2: first rectangle swaps places with the dot and second dot appears
this dot and rectangle are now linked and swap every following stage
stage 3: new rectangle swaps places with the second dot and another new one appears
this forms another link which also swaps every following stage
etc.

Oh, i didn't notice the dots appearing corresponded with the movements blocks. Interesting that we reached the same conclusion with different deductions, though i think yours is correct.

>>16241331
my problem with your explanation is that the little rectangle is too small to cover the dot, so the dots can't be preexisting underneath the rectangles from the start. kind of autistic, but

People often use laziness as a shield for their ego.

>>16241361
took me like 10 mins to figure it out, so idk if i'm dumb or what because usually these things tend to have a time component to determine how smart you are. do it or don't i'm not gonna call you a retard or anything because i don't really care either.

>>16241364
I'm aware, but I have done it in the past which gives me the confidence to say that.

This isn't really true of the literary world though. There are many well known writers who've started writing late and become famous. It's rarer, in fact, to have prodigies in this field. How many writers publish anything worthwhile in their teens? It's always mid to late twenties at the earliest.
