No, I perfectly expect someone with a 130 IQ to be a reclusive neckbeard who programs and does math all day.

When you get into the 150-170 range, you're into some Kaczynski shit. Intelligence is literally only one quality with which to judge a person, and the constant butthurt and inferiority complexes are probably what drive the impulse to isolation and escapism. 130 isn't "smart", but it's so vastly above the average that over like a statistical 95% of people you'll meet will be lower on the scale. Someone who is intelligent also probably realizes this, and I'm sure the fact that things they may find stimulating are going to be hard to convey or share with a human who does not have the patience or interest to begin with.

Psychology and sociology is useful. I can't feel emotions the same way that humans are evidently supposed to. It is suspected by me and at least five other people that I am a sociopath. With that potentially being the case, psychology and sociology serves to give me insight into the minds of psychologically normative individuals which allows me to function better within society.

It is considerably less useful than the hard sciences, however, so much in fact that one might say that in terms of usefulness psychology is not even 1% as useful as, say, physics.

>>4221456
It feels either apathetic or a mix of disappointing and boring, man.

Being more intelligent doesn't actually make me any better. Less intelligent people usually won't realize that, of course, which enforces a sense of melancholy about them wherein they perpetuate a concept which breeds insecurity and general unhappiness. It doesn't make any sense for it to be that way, but then that's why I realize it and they don't.

>When you get into the 150-170 range, you're into some Kaczynski shit.
I myself have noticed a correlation between high I.Q. and strong deviation from what is psychologically normative for humans, with varying degrees of acceptableness within society.

A good example:
There is almost nothing that I find humorous. The key word here is "almost", however, as one thing I do find endlessly entertaining is self-generated futile humor. It's as though I find it absolutely delightful that I don't find anything funny, and by extension I am able to make potentially anything that adequately stimulates this realization of my lack of humor - such as a joke would serve as adequate stimulation - hilarious.

This is a strange quirk of mine but certainly not one that anyone would ever notice unless I explicitly explained it as I just have.

I do not want to have sex, ever. I find it disgusting. I live in an extremely clean environment and I wash my hands 25 times a day on average. This is something that people do notice and is generally not well received.

I don't want awards or money - those are worthless to me. A minimum amount of money is required to continue living, of course, so money is not entirely without use, but I hardly need "lots". It would just lay around somewhere, unused.

If I had a reason to do something like that then I already would have done it. I get nothing from demonstrating my intelligence at this time.

Also, that AI has already been created, hence why I can refer to it as "primitive". The kinks with it is a lack of information gathering devices such as our five senses, which prevents it from dynamically emulating sapience. AI development is currently more of an economic issue rather than a technological one. The necessary hardware is expensive with no expected return.

Are you sure though that by fixing whatever courses asperger's you wont lower their "intelligence" maybe it's the fact they see things in a different light that makes them unique, It could be a trade off between intelligence and something that determines social abilities or peoples skills, all of which aren't purely genetic or purely environmental but a varying spectrum of both.

Although this is the rationalization, the real, "inhibiting" cause is my abnormal emotional system. I have no real symptoms of depressed aside from what is obvious, but those things are also not exclusive to depression.

If humanity was worth it, I might do something more worthwhile, but I don't care about humanity. Without empathy or the other slew of emotions that humans are reportedly supposed to feel to encourage me otherwise, I opt to live out my life as my biology permits with no other real rational goal in mind aside from eventual death.

"Most sciences" is a good answer to that question. I also focus on individual, seemingly arbitrary elements of those sciences and study that thing until satisfied. I have this same tendency for everything I do, actually - I might pause a movie that I'm watching because I noticed that birds in the background were moving in a pattern, and then completely ignore the fact that I was matching a movie in favor of investigating why those birds were flying in patterns, and why they flew in that specific one. Then, as quickly as it fascinated, I become bored with it once I solve the mystery or decide through logic that it's not worth solving it and move on.

I might do something such as play a video game for 15 minutes only to be set off on a kind of scavenger hunt, trying to learn about one specific thing that for some reason caught me eye, only returning to the game after many hours have passed and only to leave again once another thing catches my attention.

When I was 7 my mother decided that the reason why I wasn't doing well in school was because I was retarded and I was forced to take an IQ test to determine if this was the case. As you should be able to deduce, the result was not expected. I can't recall what that result actually was, but it was shockingly high, and I want to say 169.

Never, ever, announce an IQ number without accompanying it with the standard deviation and/or test used.

i have social anxiety and i don't know why.

since i was a kid i were very shy (specially around females) but i could socialize very well.

then i got bullied almost a decade ago during 7th, 8th and 9th grades.

turned into a complete shut in and never let anyone get too intimate.

nowadays i don't go out because i'm too scared to socialize.

i know i could find people to hang out with such as old classmates and "friends" but i'm too scared to do so.

so my life is basically browsing the internet all day and going to the gym, i dropped out of university because i couldn't handle it anymore (impossible to get a degree with a terrible attendance and without lab partners) but i expect to return this semester.

i haven't "gone out" such as partying, movies and etc in so many years i can't even remember the last time.

has anyone gone through this?

Having a high IQ doesn't mean anything other then you have a high IQ. It doesn't mean you will do any better then others with lower IQs or worse then people with higher IQs.

My older brother and my younger brother have IQs of 162 and 157 on the WAIS respectively. However I only have one which has been estimated around 140 (never wanted to really take one).

My older brother now lives on Disability Pension because he suffers from Schizophenia. He takes drugs and has two children to two different women. He seriously considers that the goverment is controlled by people who want to hide the truth about the human mind from the general public. (We are talking about that the human mind extends across multiple dimensions).

My younger brother suffers from either aspergers or some other disorder or may even be a sociopath. He has dropped out of year 9 and is currently studying year 9 and 10 via long distance so he can become a plumber.

I, however, am in my third year in university, studying Neuroscience, in the top 10th of my class and hold a part time job at a bakery.

Now, what I am trying to say, is that you cant judge a person solely on their IQ. It means little really. Having a tested IQ of 160+ does not change your life in any way other then you know what your IQ is. Nor does having an high IQ mean you will succeed in life in that you will get a PhD and high earning job.

I disagree with the OP's image. It basically states the difference between a lazy and introverted person and a hard working and extroverted person.

Also, 130 IQ could be considered smart, but it's definitely not up to the level of gifted or prodigy. Many of our favorite scientists haven't had an extremely high IQ anyways.

The only thing I agree with is the bit about getting a practical degree. Only an idiot would decide to pursue an entire college education consisting of something as stupid as philosophy or other related bullshit.

>> No.4224583

A couple of things I've noticed about OP's image.

1) A really smart person has a "practical" degree, yet doesn't mention income whatsoever, must be a low-tier business major, like accounting, or a philosophy major who thinks that "practical" is being able to view the world through an enlightened lens...while serving espresso at an independent coffee shop.

2) Of the two choices given, neither one looks satisfying. The latter looks appealing only until you really think about it. What does it mean to "live your life"? If it has anything to do with intuitive socializing, having a good body, getting a "practical" degree, and caring about friends in family, then it sounds like "living your life" involves doing the same retarded shit as everyone else until you're on your death bed and you realize that it was a complete waste. You did the worst fucking thing possible, you got an accounting degree, bought a house in the suburbs, married an "okay" girl, had a bunch of kids that lived in the same house as you for 18 fucking years, and when you finally retired you spent the rest of your life fishing...with grandkids. What the fuck have you done.

On the other hand though, the former doesn't sound too appealing either, unless all that lab work and programming is a means to a greater end.

Not that it matters, a smart person sees that whoever created OP's image isn't exactly smart at all, a dumb person's imitation of a smart person, and will simply reject both choices as a false means to go about life.

As for "practical degree"

A lot of people I know (I come from a very professional; MBA, law school type family) view the research I do and the rants I go on about space policy and funding particle colliders and all as kind of pointless since it is all just groundwork for things that they think likely wouldn't benefit any of us in our lifetimes...

practical degree is a bachelor degree that has both a specific applied function which employers hire you for specifically and coincidentally there are a "decent" amount of jobs available at the same time.

For example, english, philosophy and anthropology are not practical degrees because there are literally no employers who will hire you to exercise "english, philosophy or anthro skills" no one wants you to analyze Shakespeare, Hegel or run a historical analysis of early man (excluding Phd level academia, they are too few and far between, and we're talking about Bachelors and industry jobs).

on the other hand there are plenty of employers willing to hire comp sci, engineering and math majors for EXACTLY the function of their degrees, and there are a "decent" amount of jobs available.

and anyone who is hired to write or edit can do it with any uni degree, all you need to do is show some writing acumen which isn't hard to acquire...plus those jobs are very few and far between and still don't qualify as practical.

But ya, no jobs are looking for "BA philosophy" or "BA sociology"...lmfao...if they are they are like 1 in 10000

So I have an IQ of 157 according to my not so recent assessment. Fact is I'm still working at a dept. store.
Where are my promised roses exactly? And who do I take this up to?
Yeah, you got it.

157 IQ
even if your measurement was legit and not some shitty internet test, it would only further support the fact that IQ is irrelevant and measures nothing remotely close to intelligence

jobs that require you to write aren't looking for the next Proust, they just want clear and concise language that is grammatically correct...anyone with a decent uni education should be able to pull it off.

No, it actually does measure intelligence to a highly accurate degree. I still throughout my life managed to outsmart pretty much everyone around me.
I learn so painfully quickly that it hurts. I perform mathematics on an incredible level. I can talk so fast without making any logical or grammatical errors and even then my mouth simply cannot keep up with my line of thought. I can recall events, figures and entire scenes in an instance and to a very accurate degree.
I simply master everything I do without any effort whatsoever. My only problem is my lack of dedication.
Had I set my mind to do anything I'd easily be able to accomplish it. But I'm far too lazy to actually do anything and I fail to see the benefit of doing so.
Superficiality and mediocrity surrounds me wherever I go and is an inescapable part of life, let alone the human fabric within which I'm imprisoned.

As for your claim of intelligence, you must separate the performance and capability segment of a person's arsenal and its willingness to use it "appropriately" (read as: how society expects you to use it).
Only those who confuse the two concepts manage to come up with such ridiculous claims.

"Where are my promised roses exactly"

who promised you roses for having a big monkey brain? i think the only hint of a promise came if you decide to use that big monkey brain to do something outside of sitting in the quandary you're in.

if you're so smart, why can't you take the gems of insight found here today, shut the fuck up, and go do something progressive with your mind?

You would rather argue how smart you are and that someone should give you... what-the-fuck-ever... because you are so smart.

wrong much?

However OP, a 'practical degree' implies that to be a normal person, like you say, you need to be very clever in a respectable subject. I love Science, however i plan to study Graphic Design to a degree level because this is my passion, and i want to set up my own graphics business. Being outsmarted by everyone, and ultimately failing a science degree, would lead to a miserable life and a poor, stupid decision.

Therefore your argument is basically invalid.

>I'm so dark, I'm so edgy. I have no empathy and I see nothing in the world. I am above everyone, but I have done nothing with my life.

Sounds like your typical 14 year old middle classes white kid. Don't worry, most of us went through the same stage.

You are kidding right?

I took two religious studies courses my freshman year, I have been using them as evidence of "Superior writing skills" on my CV for years. Science, in general, is not looking for the next Chaucer or Shakespeare. They are looking for concise and readable prose. It is something anyone with a high school degree should be able to manage with spell check and Google.

You lack the necessary breadth and depth to fully experience and explore said stage, so both outcomes cannot be said to be similar.

Sometimes I think that I'm stupid, but sometimes I feel very smart. Mostly though, I think I have Asperger's.

At least it isn't too late for me yet. I get better and better at playing the game every day.
