Who Is The Hype's Smartest Poster?

[Varient]

Thanks for the Caucasian subtitles.
Magnanimous
(showing or suggesting nobility of feeling and generosity of mind)

No heat.
Someone recently requested in his own words for me to expand on my "giving the benifit".

That was a step in that direction.

In all honesty, those that are at THAT level of intelligence are most likely not hanging around these message boards.

Lex Luthor is a Level 12 Intellect. Just saying...

I will just confirm that this is extremely accurate. Everything is done as much under the radar as possible. Lists like the fortune 500 are compiled with only public information as individuals withhold real information on their true holdings.

And you sir, are one of those very wise posters that I admire and respect.

And them not posting here is a testament to their high degree of intelligence.

Einstein.

there's no colloration between intelligence and business success as far as i know. i think success in business requires other talents.

Einstein.

Hmm... I thought it's Albert Einstein.

Have you ever posted in a manner that screams, "I'm smarter than you. I know what I'm talking about. You don't, because you're an idiot! I'm right, you're wrong and that's all there is to it!"? I don't think I've seen you debate that way.

Interesting word choice.

How do you define "smart" or "intelligent"? Is someone who is booksmart but not "streetsmart" more intelligent? Is someone who is very successful in life but with only HS education less smart than a person who is struggling in life but with a college degree? Is intelligence measured by our grades at school or the choices that we make?

 

[DBella]

Interesting word choice.

"screams", "yells", "shouts"... not much difference.
Do you think because I used that word, what I said was directed at you? As far as my observation of you goes, you've consistently managed to provide sound arguments to back up your opinions.

 

[Lackey]

Interesting word choice.

indeed

I heard his friends call him "Al".

well as a society we do normally use such things as indicators of intelligence. not saying that is correct however.

I disagree.

two points:

1. Even the extremely intelligent have hobbies and interests that they like to share with others.

2. Yet to meet any human who doesn't crave community with like-minded folk.

Peace.

Not necessarily. Think of it like this though, Chris Langan, who I posted a thread about a while ago has 195 IQ. One of his big talking points is that CEO's "are a bunch of dumb guys who think they are smarter than the smart guys", meanwhile his theories are pretty standard, and while well presented, are ultimately not worth the paper they're printed on. He's a bouncer by trade, and profoundly arrogant.

Now, while he's perfectly right to criticize some CEOs and some of this nation's successful, success is ultimately a good indicator of someone's intelligence. Maybe that CEO comes up with a 105 on his IQ test, but you can bet your ass he used every last bit of that 105 to get him where he was. Just like an athlete. Potential can be gauged simply by looking at someone's body structure, but if they spend all day eating hoe-hoes on their couch, that potential isn't worth much. Same principle applies here. They proved a long time ago that the IQ test was bunk, even the creator said that the test wasn't meant to measure intelligence and that the score (contrary to what's reported) could be improved upon until one got a perfect score.

I don't think it's any accident that those who do well on IQ tests deal day to day with theorems and problems as hard or harder than the one's on the test. I did very well on mine, but ironically at College I was taking a very hard Calc class at the same time where the teacher was an absolute a**hole about grading. Did I do well because I was naturally gifted, or was it really because I had homework ten times harder that night. I tend to think the latter.

That is one very smart man, Betty.
