1. Right. I better get down the pub before someone thinks I’m stupid!

2. I’m feckin Einstein.

   • +1

3. Doesn’t explain Gazzer.

4. Wasn’t that the dude who said that there are evolutionary reasons for why all men prefer white/lighter women?

   • Shhh…! We’re all smart now.

5. Belief that everything about humans (or any living organism) can be understood by reference to a fairly narrow genetic view of evolution is just plain wrong. There is no evidence whatsoever for any genetic basis for “IQ” (in fact IQ is a totally subjective quantity and IQ tests are generally designed in such a way as to give the testers the results they are looking for) and not everything people do is based on their genetic make up.

   Put bluntly this is total bullshit.

     I completely agree, the fact that im more intelligent than a labrador is simply down to the enviroment the labrador was raised in.

     • If the Labrador had gone to one of those fancy, fee paying, South Dublin schools theres no doubt in my mind he would have gotten into Medicine in TCD.

6. Active minds need dulling.

7. I remember reading years ago that that alcoholics have above normal intelligence I.Q. I do think this is true despite it looking au contraire.
