i'm mentally retarded ama

[kathisterima]

I wouldn't advise anyone to find out their IQ. It's such a fucking horrible life altering realization to find out you're subject to an intellectual speed limit

I'd rather languish in mitwitdom and convince myself im an undiscovered genius than find out the truth. 

I have learnt the truth but i've buried it at the back

i have an highish (~125-130) iq that is worthless because i hate intellectual activity

reading/school work gives me cortisol 

manual labour gives me dopamine

I REFUSE to learn/think

i've found 99% of sencarios most people would use their brain for, you get the same or better outcome by

doing nothing

acting randomly

shifting blame

imitating authority figure

just doing it wrong until some frustrated thinking wagie cuck gives me the retard treatment (free training)

(here is where an evolutionary psychology theory/commentary would go but i don't care)

hope u realize it's a matter of conditioning

not everything about us is a fixed variable

[MysteriousWeeb420]

iq tests are a complete scam

why do you insist on having midwit-tier extreme black or white opinions on everything? is this part of a troll persona or are you really like this?

not really

they're the only legit aspect of psychology, tbh

I'd recommend reading the whole thing, it's very good

Sounds like mental illness. Most 130 IQ people would rather visit Gandy than spend their life being a bricklayer 

I know an older guy that used to be a bricklayer. I couldn't believe it. The guy knows more about history than i do, and seems way more knowledgeable about practically every facet of life. May be a bit patronising but i couldn't help but feel like his brain was being wasted. Remember, that every manual labour guy will retire with crippling spinal issues and joint pain. It's just not worth it

maybe mental illness tbh

never been a bricklayer but looks like a something i would enjoy 

bet that guy could be foreman/management sitting in the trailer with the AC on rn if he really wanted to

differences in value systems can be defined as mental illness by default (Oppositional defiant disorder LOL) but it's not like i was diddled as a kid, panic attack, soft dick issues deep repression, ect

some gigachads would legitimately rather take a nice walk than slay the sexiest woman in the world. Good for them

if you mean i have a low iq yea prob lol

if dislike of intellectual activity, why change something that works? juice isn't worth the squeeze imo. Assuming it's even possible, looking at some posters heavily implies it's not.

[eldajaal1488]

isnt that normal tbh. i doubt im much above 100 if at all

didnt read a single word. post your own sensible, personal argument like everyone else does

I agree, its better not to know sometimes. I took an IQ test and got a good score, but lower than what I was expecting. I havent taken any more IQ tests since then since I dont want to traumatize myself

yeah, one interesting thing about it though is how you start to notice that your brain is literally calibrated to do certain things, while other things you could think about for 100 years and still not have an answer

bricklaying for example sounds perfect for me, just the right amount of thinking required to not get bored to death

tbh you sound traumitized, and your attitude towards being a high achiever or whatever is reactionary


not saying that as an insult, at all, but idk how a high IQ person thinks so i could be dead wrong

this is another good point

how you think/act is definitely more due to environment, for example

isnt that normal tbh. i doubt im much above 100 if at all

yeah, it's "normal range"


but normal ranges are retarded. just look at dick size and testosterone; if we go by normal ranges, my 4.8 inch penis is considered adequate, which obviously isn't the case

If you're an undergrad in a good university and you excel at what you do, regardless of the subject, you're definitely over the 110-115 mark. Masters students, probably over 120. PHD students over 125-130. If you're able to publish a few papers, you're definitely over the 130 mark and probably approaching 140. 

Most of my professors think in a way that i find really interesting. Always asking relevant questions and challenging your work in ways you might not have previously thought of. 140+ thinkers are obvious. They're normally really humble, agreeable and open to different interpretations, but they'll be able to guide your own thoughts along the right lines without necessarily agreeing with them. 

This is only in the humanities field, and from what i've observed. Outside of that i'm not really sure.

professors are some of the nicest people, tbh

agree with everything you said, as always

They're some of the most understanding and empathetic people i've ever met. 

The only reason i'd ever want to get into academia would be so i could surround myself with such people

I love curious and open minded people like that. Most of them aren't even dismissive of controversial opinion, so long as you have evidence to support what you're saying. 

It's why i disagree with the idea that people are politically moulded by universities. Maybe that's something that happens in american universities, but over here no inquiry is out of bounds. You could write a paper on the history of inceldom if you really wanted to or serial killers.

Seems legit

when people talk about people being indoctrinated by institutions, it's usually because the people leaned that way anyway & chose their major accordingly... that said, my brother who was a physics student, did have a tranny lecturer once. they were clueless and took up the entire amount of time going on about their pronouns or some retarded bullshit 

i think you have to be amicable on some level to be a professor, because otherwise you will get sacked fast like that tranny

Seems legit

looks that way, unfortunately
