Are you proud to be stupid? • Non-Gaming • Eurogamer.net

Just listening to Rolf Harris - Two Little boys and made me think of how stupid I am.
Historically? For such a small brain to of created sausages and black pudding and et them. When I was thinking I was only considering the past glory as I'm generally ignorant about stuff but It made me think.

I eat sausages. They've great.
I like sunny days
I don't like cloudy days so much, especially when they rain
Office furniture. Where would the world be without it?
Pink Floyd - the best rock band ever.

The list could go on.

Sure there are plenty of negatives, like for example I read a book once. I'm feeling proud.

Singing is a good thing - you should be proud of your singing history.

Great singers like Elvis made history what it is, and make me proud too.

I am so pleased my parents had sex. Without that, I wouldn't be here!

Deleted user 11 February 2013 16:24:23

Being so stupid that you don't realise things would be nice. Being proud of it?

I once did some ironing. My girlfriend came in and said 'what's the adjective for clothes that have been ironed?'
'Flat? Crease-less?'
'No, I mean, specific to the noun, to the iron itself.'
'Oh,' I said. 'Ironed? Irony?'

is an iq test a good test of cleverness?

Deleted user 11 February 2013 16:30:05

On some levels, yes. Depends on the type of intelligence. There's much more to life than just 'intellectual' intelligence.

Deleted user 11 February 2013 16:30:40

it's a good test of reasoning.

Deleted user 11 February 2013 16:33:40

Exactly. So you can work out sequences. You can work out which numbers are missing to complete the equation. You can say what is x but you may have no common sense or you my not be able to articulate yourself and come across poorly. You also maybe poor at English as it has nothing to do with iq.
Having a bad memory?

Are you trying to tell us you do well at IQ tests?

Which of these do you think you excel at?

I bought black pudding the other day.

That's it.

I'm not sure how memory is linked to intelligence/s, if at all.

Deleted user 11 February 2013 16:38:38

No, I do really well at them.
I was joking. I am very articulate in reality.
I would admit that one of my online traits is true to the real world, I am not the best speller. Only got a C in language and literature compared to A in maths and science. It annoys me immensely.

Deleted user 11 February 2013 16:38:41

It's getting darker out.

This happened yesterday too.

Is another trait that you write like a glod seller who has been on the gin?

I think if you have a brilliant memory you can recall information you have read or heard when discussing things. You may not be able to filter the information well but it would give you a head start. You would retain your knowledge far better.
