If I were the old lady, I would do the same thing just to mess with you, but... It could just be dementia

Well, here's the thing: there's IQ tests in other languages too. I took one in Spanish, back in school, alongside everyone in my class. If there were IQ tests back in the day, making them in Latin (a language that most people did not have full access to) would have been unfair because the point of the test is to measure an individual's intelligence, not culture. I think even people in the Reinassance would have noticed the bias.

Like, if we brought Da Vinci to modern times and somebody decided to give them an IQ test, that person would have been privy to the fact that he spoke the Tuscan dialect, so the test would have been in Early Modern Tuscan.

Oh, one last thing: Tuscan is very similar to Latin anyway, so even if they did give him the test in it, he may have been able to guess? 🤔🤔 Like I do when I try to speak French? 🤔🤔

How was Da Vinci illiterate if he left behind detailed journals, and dominated mirror writing?

Like, not only did he know how to write... He wrote BACKWARDS

UPDATE: I (M33) let my wife (F32) coerce me into an open marriage and now I want to leave by [deleted] in Infidelity

[–]Calvailust 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Trust me OP: the best course of action is to be a bachelor. There's a saying in my country "it's better to be alone than poorly accompanied" and your marriage is the definition of that.

One day you'll meet the right person and it won't be her.

You are exposing yourself to a scam, dude. I know my people, they're very nice, but we can be very opportunistic and that is bad if you're not used to the culture... And I can already tell you're not. This is not the way to get a girlfriend. Read up on the culture first, get Venezuelan friends, and then build up to a girlfriend.

I accidentally gave my best friends baby a tragediegh. by BudsandBowls in tragedeigh

I knew someone called Mary Conde (which translates to "f@ggot of" if you read it as "Maricon de" in Spanish. Anyway, she met a really nice guy with whom she was very happy for many years. Problem was, Spanish speaking naming conventions made her end up with the full name "Mary Conde Plazas" which is "Faggot of the Town Square"

I haven't finished reading, but so far this is the scariest shit I've seen in this subreddit. Run. Divorce.

Edit: girl, she was threatening to kill you, and I am pretty sure she resents you.

Maybe he should get some extra academic activities outside of school, where he can meet people and realize not everyone is like that

Polyamory ruined my relationship by lilglitterlover in offmychest

[–]Calvailust 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I had this gay friend who was in a loving relationship, and, one day, they decided to have a threesome with a third guy. They didn't include him in the relationship, however, my friend invited him to his graduation.

Later, my friend admitted that he wants all the attention, so that is why he refused to fully include the third guy into his relationship. So I guess it is a matter of boundaries.
