REEEEE How DARE this book make me think my IQ isn't well above average?

Is anyone else like me?

Being egotistical dosnt mean you have high IQ, it just means you like to stroke your own dick to shit others might find slightly or marginally challenging

Youre literally the embodiment of an "intellectual chad" (ei "Im smurt ur dum, me do problems hur dur) and if you have to question how you think then ye you're not as smart as you want to be.

Improve, if you only focus on how good you are gl on improving yourself you literal evolutionary self cuck

Caring this much about IQ almost certainly guarantees that yours is not very high.

Plenty of 130+ guys like myself (done with official tests) have imposter complexes.

What a brainlet. IQ means nothing if you score 140-.

What a waste of human being.

yes. every day i wake up, i fear that your IQ has dropped by another 20%.
given enough time, i fear you will become worse than a frog-poster - a radical progressive

more like i'm constantly certain that my IQ isn't good enough
