    Apparently ultra-high-IQ people like to use comma splices too.

    A reddit mod for a mensa sub sounds like possible the most insufferable combination imaginable

    source
    • quetzaldilla@lemmy.world ⁨5⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

      If you happened to have an unusually high IQ, why you would you choose to join Mensa, or be a moderator on Reddit for that matter?

      The smartest thing you can do is obfuscate your level of intelligence, not brag about it. That’s just how you end up doing more work and getting blamed by everyone around you.

        Obfuscate your intelligence? Being a reddit mod sounds like it’s part of the plan, then.

    I wish I could remember the story but there was a guy that joined Mensa so he could con people. It worked too which rather seems to suggest that the entry requirements are not all that stringent.

      I think their entry requirements are doing exactly what they’re supposed to.

      The problem is that intelligence, even if we could measure it correctly, doesn’t and shouldn’t imply what a person knows, nor their experiences and the wisdom that they carry.

      Someone can be learned with a low IQ. Someone can be wise and similarly low IQ. In the same way, someone with a high IQ can be unwise.

      The problem with having only one individual metric for a group which believes themselves to compose the smartest people, is that they’re arrogant. I know plenty of people who are so extremely intelligent that I am certain that they could be a part of Mensa; yet, they are not. When they looked into it, they decided it would be unwise to become a member, given the requirements and the attitudes of, and about, the group.

      Hell, there’s a decent chance I could get in. I’ve never tried and I don’t care to, for all the same reasons, so I would never know if I could “make it” or not.

      Their arrogance and hubris is their undoing.

    as someone who qualifies for mensa but like, i ain’t paying a subscription fee to be in the smart people club, that sounds really dumb (and also IQ testing is sketchy at best to begin with)

    yes, i always appreciate a big booty, on any ethnicity or gender, so latinas are indeed included

      Exactly! Mensa is essentially the filter for people who think they’re smart but actually aren’t.

      I took their online test out of curiosity and it said I was qualified to join. It was interesting to figure out the mechanism of it though.

      From what I gathered, it seems what they’re really measuring is your capacity for pattern recognition and association or something along those lines.

      source
      • ComfortableRaspberry@feddit.org ⁨2⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

        Isn’t this what most of IQ tests do? I sometimes take them because it’s fun to solve the pattern tasks but I feel like it’s nearly impossible to test the really interesting things like transfer and problem solving capabilities in a reliable way at least in this kind of way.

        source
    • kameecoding@lemmy.world ⁨9⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

      IQ testing as many other things, has racist origins and is for all intents and purposes quite useless imo

      source
      • mavu@discuss.tchncs.de ⁨9⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

        In the process of ADHS (dyslexia, other) disabilities, a IQ test is used to establish a baseline of what other people with a similar result can and cannot do and this is compared to what you can and cannot do.

        IQ tests do have uses.

      Go find yourself an IQ 300 mensa nerd. They need you

      source
  • Photuris@lemmy.ml ⁨11⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

    Ok, so there is a pattern to this, and it has nothing to do with IQ per se.

    It has everything to do with political alignment. And it’s a multi-variant association (1. booty v. boobs, and 2. race / ethnicity / religion).

    I’ll use US-centric political terminology here.

    Hear me out:

    1. Men who prefer big healthy asses tend to lean left/Democrat/liberal/progressive. Men who prefer big boobs tend to lean right/Republican/conservative/fash.

    2. Men who are willing to date outside their own race / ethnicity tend to be more progressive than those who prefer to stay within their own race / ethnicity (although progressives can happily find partners within their own ethnic group, too; whereas conservative almost always look within their own ethnicity first).

    So, an appreciation for big booty Latinas signifies a. someone who leans left (booty), and b. a progressive willing to date outside their own race (assuming he’s not also Latino).

    A progressive / Democrat / liberal / lefty can also date PAWGs, big booty Black women, etc. and be perfectly happy.

    A Republican will only date someone within their ethnicity 95%+ of the time (some exceptions exist, but it’s relatively rare), and they ALWAYS prefer big mommy milkers, caring very little, or naught at all, for booties.

    So there you go. This is 100% anecdote, but one day, I guarantee, the research and science will back me up on this, as soon as someone conducts it.

    What’s mensa

    source
    • GreenKnight23@lemmy.world ⁨6⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

      I went to college with a kid who introduced himself to the class as a Mensa member on day 1. it was a logics class.

      halfway through the semester I argued my point logically against him in a debate in front of the class and won. he was embarrassed as fuck and as red as a tomato. he was so pissed that he lost against me because he believed I was inferior to him.

      my tactic was to get him emotionally flustered on his stance, which he vehemently believed in, and argue logical arguments regardless of their logical context to his stance.

      for example if his stance was “all abortions are wrong.” my argument was, “if abortions are wrong and death is wrong then abortions that save life are right because abortions don’t kill people. so if abortions don’t kill people all abortions are right.” cue up a tit for tat back and forth for 15 minutes and I win the debate point for point.

      anyway, we didn’t see him for the rest of the semester and he dropped out entirely.

      I kinda feel bad a bit because it was clear he was on the spectrum and I used that to my advantage but the dude was a dick.

      point is Mensa is a dick stroking competition and you’re better off avoiding it.

        The impression I get is that it was more relevant before the internet. Like, you’d be living in bumfuck Nebraska and take an IQ test in high school to see if you should be a trucker or farmer, and then a couple weeks later you get a letter asking if you wanna be part of a club of smart people who have a magazine and meet every once in a while.
