lol at the responses...

but honestly this is a lame poll, you said so yourself in the first paragraph:
'I know the majority of everyone probably thinks they are smarter than most just because the fact that everyone thinks differently and uniquely.'

my friends are all pretty solid all-around and a few are truly brilliant. my father is another level above me and the rest of our extended family in pure iq - it took him a year and a half to get his masters and phd in electrical engineering, and i never seemed to pick up concrete subjects as effortlessly as he did. the rest of my family is still pretty good but nothing special special, a typical professor and doctor family.

being smart is completely worthless just like my writing talent, as i'm still working on fixing my study habits to get my grades up. as it is i'm totally fucked =( i'd like to point out though that tl.net has some really bright regulars and it's always a joy to read their posts

you're an idiot. why are asians always so concerned with false humility? it's far more insulting than an arrogant answer and even more than a simply blunt one.

it's quite likely that the average TLer is actually smarter than the average person, so the self-bias might not be as strong as these polls suggest

your thread?. get the fuck off my forum


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.


getting me banned wont solve the fact ur dumb. i merely answered your wonders. if that offends you then you shouldnt have come here posting about your imaginary world. here is where you meet the truth. whatever your parents told you will turn out to be all lies when you go here. i suggest you leave, because if i get banned rekrul will take over and he's a lot nastier. it would probably bring you to tears

I apologize, maybe I should have lied to you, but I didn't I choose to be honest. I regret that now.
would you believe me if I said you are smart?

erm, I disagree. What makes you think people surfing this particular website are ANY different from the average internet user/human. it is true that people who have access to the internet usually have better education/are generally a lot more experienced in various things. but that doesn't automatically make them "smart". see examples given in this thread.

the allure of starcraft, economic and numbers managements, internet strategy games, socializing over an online forum, constant reading, etc all point to a higher likelihood of the participants here being smarter than (at the very least) average groups of people. denying that is a blind stab at political correctness which counts for nothing here anyway.

do you realize how blissfully ignorant the average person is?

cpt oblivious, i ignore you usually. like ive blocked you from virtually everwhere, but this forum doesnt let me block you which is in fact quite gay.

Tl.net has a high rate of university students, that makes them smarter than the average hillbilly.

please don't confuse higher levels of education with intelligence, those are two totally unrelated things.

sooooooo if we take those Polls seriously, more than half of the peaple are brighter than most of the peaple they know, which is impossible.

Funny how peaple think they're some kind of genious when they're normal peaple.

I think you do have a point. You might just be the one that's truely above average but still delusional never the less.
Peace and love, for ever.

not exactly
for most in the american public, the very act of 'going to college' by itself is a very clear gauge of 'who is smart and who is not,' and for a multitude of very good reasons.

and tarte most of the 'people that you know' aren't on this forum. it's no surprise that someone who fails to see that is getting so upset by these harmless, if a bit snooty, results =(
