Should I join Mensa, or is that retarded?

Should I join Mensa, or is that retarded?

Well it depends. I'm a member, there's no benefit to that but I just like the membership card in my wallet in case someone thinks I'm retarded.

so there you have it op. its a group for retards, to get a membership card that makes them feel better about being retarded.

so you can prove them right?

nah just kidding my man. IQ is a scientifically valid indicator for intelligence.

I used to work at a hotel with this girl that wouldn't shut up about how intelligent she was. Always being condescending to me, treating me as a lesser being because she thought she was more intelligent than me. Then I signed up for Mensa just to get that damn card and shove it down her fucking throat

>"I have a higher than average IQ"
Fuck you

Why did you post a nigger?

Idk, I feel like it would be a nice thing to put on resumes and whatnot.

>putting Mensa membership on your resume
Now that's retarded.

>IQ

IQ is a psychometric and therefore not science.

>Paying to be in a club that tells you you're smart

Very retarded

Mensa is basically the club of underachieving losers, let's face it. It's not about being around other really interesting and smart people, it's all about getting some recognition for something that you don't need to do anything for. It's just a fucking number that gives you the illusion of being worth shit without ever lifting a finger again in your life. It's in the end just a substitute for all the things you should have done in your life but never managed to do, because you are lazy and useless.

take your meds

Sounds like Veeky Forums: the club.

If you were actually intelligent, then you would know

I agree that IQ is a scientifically valid indicator for intelligence, but with a reason like that, you just sound insanely insecure.
Social intelligence is necessary for success too.

>tfw to intelligent to be smart

>mfw felt super smart as teenager
>do IQ test
>103
>mfw

>mfw felt super stupid younger
>do IQ test
>134
>mfw

Well then allow me to relieve you of that misconception. Nobody in science is going to care that you were in MENSA. They will assume you are smart by default and will only care about your achievements.

Is the cutoff for Mensa still 140(ish)? If so, they can gobble my 135 IQ knob.

(BTW, IQ tests done on the internet are bullshit. The real test takes 2 to 3 hours and is administered by a trained professional.)

>tfw got a 142 by only doing the first half and guessing the rest because time is just as important as the correct answer on these tests, so you can hack a higher score by turning it in early.
