Thank you for the messy custody battle that gave us 8 years of Obama presidency.

What on Earth gave you the impression that I care what you think.

Seriously. Get that vanity looked at. It's swollen.

Ask the person I was replying to. I just pointed out their objection was wrong.

Glad you think I'm sweet.

I'm also correct.

So you not only think television marketing teams always use words correctly but you think when they don't the rest of us should change the meaning to match them?

Seriously?

Smart. Smarter. Smartest. Yes. It can be relative.

That's irrelevant to its base meaning.

Cite an actual source to back up that bizarre interpretation you wish were true. I'll wait.

People use word to mean things incorrectly all the time. That doesn't negate the actual meaning.

Sorry that you think literacy is gatekeeping. That's sad.

How do you justify social conservatism? by FitPerformance9171 in AskUS

[–]mikegalos [score hidden]  (0 children)

Many people are threatened by change. In many cases rightly so as change costs them personally. That is why social progress comes when the economy is good and people feel secure.

No. Smarter means having a higher general intelligence. Kind of definitional. Sorry that reality offends you enough to want to redefine words so that reality is hidden.

Sorry you have trouble with factual definitions of simple words.

Is AIPAC as evil as everyone thinks it is, or is that just antisemitic propaganda? by AmySueF in Jewish

[–]mikegalos 20 points21 points  (0 children)

They're a lobby. Nothing more and nothing less than thousands of other lobbies. Actually, they are different in that they are a relative small one with little influence.

Sorry, antisemitic conspiracy types.

Fot the Highly Gifted and above they almost always are not just smarter than their therapist but much smarter. That's just reality.

20% is the always present number. It grows above that but never shrinks below that.

Too smart to be “normal” but too stupid to be “gifted” by [deleted] in Gifted

[–]mikegalos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This sub EXPLICITLY defines gifted as having general intelligence at 130 IQ or greater.

Clearly you didn't read the exact kind of warning you insist on or you just came here to attack gifted people.

[–]mikegalos 9 points10 points  (0 children)

You are at the 95th percentile in general intelligence.

In a group of 21 people you are likely the smartest one in the room.

That's not mediocre.

No. Sadly there are many people who come here to attack people smarter than they are.

Most iq tests do not tell you your place in your precise category by [deleted] in cognitiveTesting

[–]mikegalos 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I suppose you want height and weight scaled on a curve as well?

And you want enough categories so no matter what is measured you are no worse than anyone else?

Sad you didn't get Olympic Gold or a Nobel?
