    I don't like those test, they suck, and i generally get 140+

    Also tests are supposed to be age consistent, 12, 14, 18, 30, 40 whatever

    This thread is such a gigantic circlejerk. The adults among you should know better than to encourage the wee ones into such numerical based arrogance.

    I didn't think any of us were encouraging the respect of an IQ test. In fact I'm quite sure the majority of us were mocking the ludicrous nature of such a test.

    I didn't know the reference but a quick Google search showed me the light. Michael Ironside? Hell, I'll watch that. It's nice to finally know where the 'head asplode' gif comes from!
    We have? :confused:

    Teenagers have plenty of arrogance on their own. Didn't anybody tell you that teenagers are the smartest people in the world?

    You would, wouldn't you! :hehe:

    I don't think there's a single post-teen person who wouldn't want to be able to go back in time and kick their own teenage behind for being arrogant. Or at least I would, anyway.

    Aren't proper IQ tests supposed to control for age (i.e. the score indicates your IQ relative to people of the same age, but is not a real indication of IQ compared to older people)? If so, it makes the follow on comments even more humorous. I have an IQ of eleventy billions. And I'm 6 years old! That makes me more super-genious than the 9 year old with an IQ of 54 parsecs. :lol:

    Damn you Tall... Although I'd say it's more like 250... At that you become Yuri and dominate the universe.

    Don't worry, it's more of an algorithm you use to solve it. I can't do it and they were almost designed for mathematicians like me although that's partially due to my general reluctance to bother to sit down and solve problems properly.

    Pretty much, Logic puzzles are fantastic. Even if they are a bane on my life... my friends like to leave them lurking around in my flat for me to find... then my best friend decided to reallllly wind me up.

    Walked in from work one day to find THIS little daemon!

    Needless to say, there was swearing at my friend.

    I'd be depressed if they weren't, if the next generation does not have a higher IQ than the one before and the next but one a higher IQ than those before them, and so on, then this race has no hope .

    It was a joke on the fact that teenagers are generally among the stupidest group on the planet. Inquisitive like children, but unwilling to be taught, independent and strong willed like adults, but ignorant.
