Intelligence varies in so many ways, but if you're talking about general knowledge in all aspects, and not just one area, then:

Are you the smartest person you know?
No.

Do You Think You Are Smarter than your parents?
Yes.

Are you smarter than all your friends?
Most of them.

Are you smarter than your siblings?
Yes.

Are you smarter than your relatives?
Most of them, but no where near as smart as some of them.

ARE YOU SMARTER THAN TL.NET?
Probably not.

all that this shows is

Are you arrogant?
Yes.

-_-;; didn't vote. I hate comparing intelligence to others. There's no good way to go about it - standardized tests are the only thing I can think of, but they're ridiculous and pointless and I don't think scores are worth anything.

Yeah i was very dissapointed as this thread as well and it's one of the reasons I don't visit teamliquid General forum much (at all).

Everyone thinks they're so smart it makes me wanna puke.

There are SO many ways "intelligence" can manifest that you can't possibly know if you are smarter than most people.

I think it may be TV influence thats make everyone so arrogant and every single one thinks he is so smart >.<

Nigga means friend. However, I see where the misunderstanding here, as I have often referred to my fellow African American friends as Niggas and they don't mind at all.

buncha nigga guys!

So are you going to make that incredible revalation about how everyone thinks they are brilliant and blame it on ethnocentrism or something yet?

We're all at the edge of our seats.

All I've noticed is that the intelligence of posters (at least those that make threads) seems to be at an all time low

Just for fun poll thats kinda on topic:

Poll: What Kinda Smart?
(Vote): Booksmart
(Vote): Streetsmart

After reading oliver twist early in my life as well as seeing Aladdin, I've always prided myself in being more streetsmart than booksmart. Almost to the point where it would be ok to call me ghetto.

Are you the smartest person you know? NO. Not even close

Do You Think You Are Smarter than your parents? NO. Their experience is not something I can learn in the classroom.

Are you smarter than all your friends? NO. I'm one of the dumbest out of my friends.

Are you smarter than your siblings? NO. My brother is naturally smarter than I am, even though I do better in courses.

Are you smarter than your relatives? YES.

ARE YOU SMARTER THAN TL.NET? Most, but certainly not all. And even if I think I am academically better equipped than some, that doesn't mean I do not respect them.

I am quite smart, everyone always tells me so. Tests have shown this too.

All my friends are university guys, but I feel that I outsmart most of them. There is one though, studying to be a surgeon, who has me beat probably. He learns so fast, it's surreal.

In my class Im one of the two people who have passed every obstacle in one try. I tutor some also. We'll see how I cope when I study Psychology though, because then I'll meet the Gymnasium folks.

My dad is also very smart. He has a ton of knowledge and would royally whoop any tv program. Sadly enough he lacks in the social aspect. My mom is the opposite, kind of cute to see.

I think that TL harbors some great intellectuals. A lot of the regulars are very intelligent, I believe.
