I'm saying that chess shouldn't be a class. Understand hidden meanings. You can't simply imply that I was confused. Not surprising coming from someone who doesn't understand science.

Drawing a parallel between to topics is often called a comparison. This is taught in grade 2. This is also English not science. 

You are sounding dumber and dumber every post. Keep digging.

It seems that you don't understand. I can't argue with a low-IQ kid with a 2 puzzle rush score and who can't discern between words that you should've learned in second grade. Hypocrite much? Absolutely pitiful. I'm done here. I've already won. Give up and stop embarrassing yourself.

Why are you being so spiteful? Noname81 just wanted to spell out the meaning behind my analogy and you are provoking a fight with him.

I came back here for another laugh. It seems that both of you are low-IQ kids. noname81 is the one trying to aggravate me, not the other way around.

All of my arguments are all mine, not anyone else's. I don't know where you got that assumption from. Also, it is "you're".

"Not surprising coming from someone who doesn't understand science." That is definitely a form of aggravation, don't play the hero card.

I'm in 6th grade, and my IQ is +140

I don't mean to brag by the way. And yes, I think teenagers can increase their IQ if they work hard.

First of all, allow me to congratulate you on having an IQ of over 140.

 

 Incidentally, according to the claims of those individuals that take stock in IQ being a proper measure for intelligence. That would make you a genius, but, for what it is worth that is quite a score.

 

Be that as it may, and don't take this the wrong way, but that is precisely why IQ is not a proper tool for gauging intelligence. If a 10-11-year-old can be in a genius category. 

 

Certainly, I cannot state for sure you are not a genius. I can only relate to you it is not probable which a +140 IQ would otherwise specify. I sincerely doubt it. Albeit, judging from your ability to articulate the terms of what you mean into the English language you must be truly gifted. I only mean IQ scores do not provide us with a sufficient indicator of genius.

 

In sum, another measure to test your genius is available to help me, for one, discover the truth.

I'm not sure, I don't think so. I believe IQ is innate, so other than bouncing around a few points on either side of your baseline, I don't  think any meaningful gains can be made. Being healthy and exercising your brain with puzzles etc may help you to improve your IQ scores, but I'm not sure they would improve actual intelligence.

However, my IQ is slightly lower, so you are in a better position to determine the answer to your question. And, 140 is in the top 2% or so of intelligence scores, so there is not much to improve upon. wink.png

All 6th graders think that.

Kids get smarter, stronger, bigger, practically every day. Every single day. And they don't even have to try, it's just how their body works. It's unimaginable to them that anyone could possibly get worse at anything, particularly if hard work is involved.

So, you have the intelligence for tenth grade work. You will go far if you apply yourself.

 

Some tenth graders get to take psychology, where they can learn the history of the efforts of Eugenicists to apply IQ notions in all sorts of inappropriate ways. The Mismeasure of Man by Stephen Jay Gould is probably above a tenth grade reading level, but maybe you could tackle it anyway.

MMTMIT most people I meet are extremely nice and friendly. At the gym people like to talk and are seldom rude. Also people you meet going about your daily life are typically not out to get you, if you treat people nice and stop with the unnecessary, random criticism of people who never did anything to you.

 "And they don't even have to try"  "it's just how their body works" (cut and paste)

From an analytical perspective if IQ test indicated veneration for the individual being tested, that sentence would sum it all up, only if?

...and if were a fifth we would all be drunk!

I'm not sure what you mean exactly, but my post was tongue in cheek.

IMO genius is at and above 150, 140 is pretty good but no genius.

Well, he is mentally ill, so I don't know how this row about him believing that he's in a higher position than everyone else will ever stop. But do be soft on him, as I said, he's what the doctors call "retarded".

Oh no. People whom I deem to be mentally ill are calling me mentally ill. sad.png 

However, everyone is mentally ill in some way. Stop being so hypocritical. I doubt that any doctor would call me retarded. No one whom I have ever known did, contradicting everything you said in that petty post of yours.

If you believe that his command of the English language is indicative of "truly gifted", then I must have been "truly gifted" in elementary school. It is quite a conundrum how I wasn't even in the G&T programs at my schools. This is even more proof that I have a genius IQ. 

I'm fully expecting people to insult me again over my recent posts. Pathetic and toxic people are everywhere, and I'm not surprised. Yes, I'm better than all of you combined and you will all bow down to me with me as your master.

I was  reading over some of your comments. It looks like you struggle with English. In you last post you wrote” I can’t not argue with low-IQ kid with puzzle a 2 puzzle rush score and who can’t discern between words that you should’ve learned in  second grade.

So your first mistake is a very big one.

1)What you have done is combined two ideas into one sentence. This is called a run on sentence. This is first grade stuff.  Notice how I eliminated the “and” from your run on sentence and used a period. The period completes the first idea. I then started the next idea with” “You also can not”

2) Second mistake is using contractions through out your writing. I cleaned those up for you.

3)The third mistake is using 2 instead of two

4) The forth mistake is another big one. You wrote with “puzzle a 2 puzzle rush score” wtf does this even mean. Is thatEnglish?

5) The fifth mistake is were you wrote “I can’t not argue” the contraction itself already contains the “not” part of can’t. You do not need to repeat it. 

 

I rewrote the part of your comment that you butchered below

“I can not argue with a low IQ kid who has a puzzle rush score of two. You also can not discern between words that you should have learned in second grade.

 

I also find it interesting how all off you responses are a regurgitation of what I said to you. You lack the creativity to come up with your own material. I wonder if there is any correlation from lack of creativity and IQ. It seems to be the case here

How did I overlook all of those mistakes?

Obliterate all of the toxicity. This website would be a better place.
