The Ultimate IQ Test

I took one of those IQ tests on the interweb the other day, and I think I failed. I spent a quarter hour choosing shapes and completing patterns and deciding who was taller, only to find out in the end that I had to pay to get my results. And now they have my email address, ensuring that I get flooded with spam from tickle.com and everyone they sell their mailing list to.

I’m not very smart. If I were, I wouldn’t have bothered with it in the first place.

Lisa and I once spent an afternoon doing online IQ tests. In back-to-back tests, I scored and 85 and then a 130.

I'm either as smart as a retarded chimp or smart enough it doesn't matter.

I meant to write "an 85..." Obviously, the former score is more accurate.

I did one of those also and it said that my IQ was 160. I was skeptical. I'm pretty stupid. Also tickle started emailing me as well. But you can take solice in knowing that it's only about once a month. A small price to pay to find out that my IQ is higher than Einstiens.
