Every one of us who has been to school in the US in the past 50 or 60 years is aware of their IQ or at least a percentile. To me it sounds as you are for some reason defensive about intelligence. There is no reason to be, it's how we are born and we can't take credit or blame. FWIW, avg is still 100, with 68% of us falling between 85 and 115. Now knowledge and education are things we can control. Obviously some fields such as math and physics are beyond what many of us can absorb. This isn't a big deal in everyday life, so long as we recognize our limitations. Lecture done.;) Also. I've noticed your posts often pop up in the middle of threads, as if you've "reserved" a place but your post shows up hours later. How do you do that?:h
I can only imagine the number of Karens and idiots you deal with.
The older I get, the more I realize it seems the avg IQ is somewhere around a cool room temperature!
You know, you're right, all bs aside, I tend to use that term "IQ" alot and I use it probably incorrectly in place of other descriptors that could be used like "no common sense" or " no courtesy."
You're totally right, in that there is a world full of discourteous @ssholes who don't exhibit much common sense that most all have avg or above actual IQs. I should be referencing behavior not intelligence.
It's very hurtful and discriminating against actual simple folk who are polite, resourceful and courteous.
Appreciate the heads up. I've done the same recently with eliminating the R word (also derogatory, r e t a r d) from my use vocabulary, unless I'm talking about engine timing.
