Taking a quick look at the results shows how full of yourselves most of you are!


I bet you think you are pretty smart as well. Be honest.
lol, I know exactly what you mean. Some thing has to be seriously wrong with you if you truely think that you are not above average. We are all conceded by nature and I except that. But why are we conceded as we are is some thing I am not sure of.
Peace and love, for ever.

If by intelligence you mean the ability to reason, then yes -- better than most. Though I don't claim to be the most intelligent person, especially in a group of people whom I don't know very well.

and no, I'm not pulling this out of my ass. I've done VERY well in math courses and Philosophy courses. I'm not trying to brag or anything, but since people would want some kind of proof, I have a 94.3% average in Gr.12 first semester (the last time I got official marks back). And no, it's not because I memorize. My memory is hardly above average, I think.

I thought it might be fun to do an analysis...

My friend for example has passed all kinds of college math classes including a bunch of calculus shit.

Ok so you've introduced us to one friend and he would naturally be the "he" in the next sentence.

Show nested quote +
One day we were eating and we had to pay our bill and figure the tax and tip.

Ok, so you didn't use "he" but instead "we", so you and your friend are eating. Either you're gay or you've used "we" before introducing everyone that's involved in it.

Show nested quote +
My one friend owed like 13 bucks or something and he only had a 20.

Ok so "my one friend" is, I guess, referring to a 2nd friend, but it's possible that it could still be in reference to the math friend.
Show nested quote +
He owed like 13 and I owed like 11 for a total of 37 bucks.

When you say "he owed like 13", you could be repeating what you just said in the last sentence for the sake of putting it into this list of the total amount owed. However, you're not doing that. This use of "he" is going back to refer to the math friend, and we're supposed to now have figured out that your use of "my one friend" was indeed introducing a 3rd person, otherwise we'd all be laughing at your math of "13+11=37".

Show nested quote +
None of us had enough cash to change his 20.

"None of us" is clearly implying at least 3 people, but considering your previous use of "we" with only 2 people introduced, and your ambiguous use of "my one friend" and therefore also of "he" in previous sentences, many readers would now be thoroughly confused.

Show nested quote +
I had my 11 in and he had is 13 in and he couldn't figure out how to make it work without asking the waitress for some change. but I said everyone put all their money in the pot and just have him take out his change, it seemed simple to me. He called it abstract thinking.

Your reader can hopefully figuring out that this "he" is in reference to your math friend, otherwise the purpose of this sentence would be lost. But your use of "he" here is still a very weak pronoun.

.....

Hmm, anyway, what a mess. Good writing skills aren't, of course, equatable to intelligence (just like anything else). However, good writing is simply putting your ideas through certain standards and rules. The ease of this task is an indicator of a very general intellectual skill.

Are you saying you couldn't understand what he said?

Maybe you should vote "No."

it should be are there any cities. wtf you actually said is there any cities....... wtf !

unintentionally you said you thought you were one of the smartest around. for someone that cant speak his first language thats a bold thought. language is a nice indicator of intellect.


I Indirectly stated I am one of the smartest people I know of my friends and family. I never said I was smarter than anyone. I often type how I would talk without thinking over how it sounds to the reader. "Is & Are" are a small pluralization error. You could even say "Is/Are" is a small pluralization error. If you wanna get technical you didn't use quotations or capitalizations. And I'm not speaking I'm typing. Hypocrite

Wow I'm amazed you know what Tennessee is. Our stereotype for the south being incestuous and stupid must really stand out there in the world
7 languages is pretty good, but I'm guessing Swedish, Bokmål, Nynorsk, Finnish, spanish, english, maybe danish? :>

You understood it right? Thats the point, I'm not trying to write a perfect essay here. Your logic for judging people by how they type is in itself stupid.

Like I said your logic is retarded and you are biased against me to whatever I type. I could say people who forget quotations and capitalization are often retarded. You're not smart, stop trying to look cool and get the fuck out of my thread.

Since when is it your forum? Why do you continue to argue for no reason ? You like to start shit, get a kick out of it? You should be banned. Get lost, this isn't the place for it.
