basically IQ is bullshit. From my experience IQ tests are mostly arithmetic and school shit. Im bad at math, and good at geography. If one were bad at geography but good at math. Who could say who was "smarter"? I have never until now, if i recall correctly, this "ya can always be more intelligent, but ya cant ever get no smarter". I honestly cant remember if ive said anything of the sort. I likely have, but who knows. I may as well just call myself stupid, because my memory is shit, and i hardly know what day of the week it is. Perhaps the retention of information is what makes people smart, not how quickly they can recall it...or maybe that IS all that makes people intelligent. Memory and the speed of recollection.

From that i ask, what would you call a genius professor on the verge of a breakthrough discovery, whom suffers with severe amnesia? What might you call yourself if you could argue with me?

Intelligence I think, personally is very subjective in society. because when you're surrounded by idiots...the lesser idiot is a genius.
