mensa? more like memesa amirite haha

>>10698996
HAHAHAHAHAHA WOOOOW!

IQ is a meme, so mensa is a society devoted to a meme. a good analog are the people who form cliques around local trivia night events, bunch of losers who pride themselves on being good at random head scratcher questions to validate their egos in lieu of real intellectual credentials

>another IQ thread

what's a meme?

>>10698879
its a jew cash grab

>>10699116
a viral idea that self-reproduces by infecting the mind. play MGS3 for an in-depth treatment. tldr; memes are similar to genes or viruses.

>>10698879
IQ exams can theoretically be studied, and are generally measuring very specific types of intelligence. Mensa is nothing more than a status symbol with no actual meaning behind it.

>>10698879
All they do at Mensa meetings is play board games and

They put fun puzzles in their newsletters

>>10699192
Break into people's house while they're posting to suck their dick.

>>10698879
A memesa is men.

>>10698879
Mensa is just Autism anonymous.

>>10698879
Members don't refer to it as Underachievers Anonymous for nothing, OP.

I always chuckled how in Spanish aka latin somewhat it can also be used to refer to someone as dumb!

IQ is a meme. It makes you good at fast puzzle solving. Sure this can translate to being good at analytical skills or problems in science/engineering/medicine/law/business/life... but not necessarily, you still have to introduce yourself to the context of these problems and care about it enough to pursue specialized skills.

Some MENSA fags just play chess and solve crossword puzzles.

Both the guys who made it left and basically thought of it as a failure

"However, Berrill and Ware were both disappointed with the resulting society. Berrill had intended Mensa as "an aristocracy of the intellect", and was unhappy that a majority of Mensans came from humble homes,[11]while Ware said: "I do get disappointed that so many members spend so much time solving puzzles.""

Mensa means canteen in Italian.
I guess those big brainers really love eating.

>high iq sociey
>filled with leftist members who say iq is fake and doesn't matter

Uhhh why do they even exist?

>>10699040
It's so tiresome

>>10699192
Can confirm. I 'lied' my way into it faking tests by learning how to do them in fucking google search and all they do is play chess and talk about irrelevant shit with grotesque intellectual wanna-be dialect

>>10698879
I think so, I suffered a brain injury a couple of years ago so I have to do IQ tests every 4-6 months. I have scored as wide as 20 point difference between some of these. I asked the doctor who is overseeing this if this was the result of my injury and he said it is common for there to be a big variance in test scores even for individuals.

I do think IQ has some validity but I question anybody who does social science and claims test scores that can have this kind of variance to be accurate.

>>10698879
We need more Conferences

>IQ is a meme
>said by people who score low and average on IQ tests

>>10698879
My ex's dad advised me not to join. Apparently it's a huge meme and a circlejerk. Not how the good professor phrased it, but still.
