I took it again and scored even lower.

"Billy took a bite out of an apple, which bite mark doesn't belong in the sequence above?" I guess I'm supposed to be a fucking dentist now or I'm a idiot.

You're missing the point. A 16 yr. old student with a part time job isn't going to spend a month's pay sending their beater into the shop for basic car maintenance nor are they going to call home in tears because they have a flat. Actually, I take that back, there are probably a ton of girls & guys who would do just that because their parents never took the time to teach them to be self sufficient and they feel entitled in having someone do it for them.

There's something to be said for having to work for what you get in life. That's the point.

I got your point. That was my point. Most 16 year old kids don't have high paying jobs that afford them the luxury of paying someone to change their tires. So by not paying for it yourself and instead teaching them how to change their own tire you're also teaching them how much it sucks to be poor in the process. You don't want to have to be driving a piece of shit and changing your own oil for the rest of your life.

Sally just doesn't love classic cars, just say it Sally your a woman that has no clue about cars and how they work. You get so confused looking under the hood that your mind drifts off to Tahiti, hammocks and love slaves. Its OK and doesn't mean your IQ is any lower than lets say Daffy duck for example.

I have no clue about cars other than I like driving nice expensive ones. I don't get confused looking under the hood because I don't look under the hood. I don't like going to classic car shows, it bores the shit out of me right up there with golfing.

I just knew you hated them because you don't understand them. I feel the same way about shoes.

Sally is the type of customer we love when I worked in a shop. Except when we have to call you and tell you that you need a new engine because it was completely dry. Good for us, bad for you.

There's different kinds of intelligence, some of the smartest people I know are emotionally retarded.

I'm not revealing my score but its come down by 10 points in the last 8 years. By the age of 70 I will probably be sitting in a puddle of my own dribble if the decline continues.

You may drown by then limey.

We get it, Reverend.

Everybody give Duchess a big Amen before she writes a god damn thesis on the subject.

You might be right yank.

I can't change a tire or my oil. Let me rephrase that. I don't want to do those things.

Incredible, don't you people know IQ tests are designed to test a specific range. Where you score does not necessarily determine your IQ. If you fall with in the range of the test you can be relatively sure that is your IQ; if you test outside the tests range it means you need to take a different test.

I don't know the test linked, but my guess it is standard and has a top score of 140. It was probably designed to test the 90 - 110 range (average).

Try this one.

Mensa IQ Test

35: Mary had a number of cookies. After eating one, she gave half the remainer to her sister. After eating another cookie, she gave half of what was left to her brother. Mary now had only five cookies left. How many cookies did she start with?

1. There is a spelling error.
2. She is a selfish bitch
3. I hope she has a stomach ache.

Another error!

36 "A spaceship received three massages in a strange language from a distant planet. The astonauts studied these messages and found that "Elros Aldarion Elendil" means "Danger Rocket Explosion" and "Edain Mnyatur Elros" means "Danger spaceship Fire" and "Aldarion Gimilzor Gondor" means "Bad Gas Explosion". What does "Elendil" mean?

ANSWER: 23

5 X 2 = 10

10 + 1 = 11

11 X 2 = 22

22 +1 = 23

Answer: Rocket

Process of elimination; Elendil can only mean Danger, Rocket or Explosion. It is not danger because it is not used in 2^nd phrase. It is not explosion because it is not used in 3^rd phrase. Leaves only rocket.

I wasn't asking for the answers fuck face. I was pointing out the spelling errors in the test. The test that wants me to pay to get the answers.
