Your argument style is a bit 7th grade-ish... I guess that’s why your so enthralled with Sarah, she’s not too bright so she tends to attract those who themselves aren’t too bright."

Pretty sure that's supposed to be "you're," there, genius. Something I knew before 2nd grade, in fact. Sarah knows it, too. She and I both had teachers for parents. I take it you did not.

As for my own intelligence, Mensa claims my I.Q. is 160-plus. I have no reason to doubt them. By the same token, your apparent inability to master simple gradeschool grammar augers somewhat less convincingly on your behalf.

But, hey, look at the bright side... imagine how boring this world would be if we were all geniuses. The world needs "sanitation engineers," too!

Well if you had a 160 IQ you would know that “you’re” is always a contraction of “you are.”

So for me to have said “you are argument”... Would be silly not to mention incorrect.

If you’ve written “you’re,” try substituting “you are.” If it doesn’t work, the word you want is “your.”

But with a 160 IQ I’m sure you knew this, right?

Genius...

That certainly puts a blaze-orange highlighter on the fact that I.Q. is an entirely
separate measure of the mind than common sense or wisdom doesn't it? LOL
