It too 'em long enough.
It gets worse. Did you know that as much as 50% of the population has below average intelligence?
What a “stupid” article...
Brilliant observations! 😂😂😂👍
We call them Democrats.
Me? I’m just trying not to get stung! 🙂
Well. There you go.
I heard that half of the people are just average or below. Huh?
So, if I think I’m stupid, I’m not stupid?
LOL.
You have got to love the Babylon Bee and the funny stuff that they come up with!
But intelligence and how people perceive it along with how it is tested is a very interesting subject. I did not realize how differently people think until I had a work study job in college assisting people with learning disabilities. And it turned out that I have brain that for whatever reasons functions differently than most others. They put my cousin who was closest in age to me and a close family member on medication because his issues which made it difficult for him to sit still and concentrate. My brain and his function in a similar way but he was a little more out of control.
Being a highly competitive person, I always looked forward to the Iowa tests and other similar tests that were administered to us in grade school and beyond. Those who did not do as well generally did not like to take them as much or at all for obvious reasons. Some of my classmates who had other talents did not appreciate being pigeonholed by these exercises.
Fortunately, there were a variety of different categories covered on the Iowa tests so there was always some room for debate about who was the top dog when the scores came back. As far as I was concerned problem solving acuity when it came to fixing mechanical and electrical or electronic devices was not and probably could not be well tested with this type of testing platform.
And of course, the ability to argue a point with an adversary with a similar skillset was another area that was difficult to test with multiple choice format tests. So, I was well aware at an early age that the tests were not completely conclusive. But the ability to do well on these types of tests brought me a lot of enjoyment and some accolades in my youth.

This is right on the money. Look how many college students vote for DemonRATS. It doesn’t get any stupider than that.
Life’s tough.
It’s tougher when you’re stupid. So any of you out there who think you’ve had a really tough life.......
Watch the speed of their thought and ability to articulate and compose.
The breadth and depth of their knowledge and insights...
Its pretty easy to be humbled in that environment.
I think Will Rogers or someone used to say the average person doesn’t think they are average.

I know plenty of smart people but because they are uninformed, they appear stupid.
