 >>Hi, One Man Alone here. Dear JLB, I feel I should be a little less vague 
and put more light into what I said. First off, I AM smart, I have an IQ of 
138 which is 2 points below technical genius in the most commonly used 
standard IQ charts, and I haven't been to college yet, plus I'm only 17. 1 
in every 200 people have an IQ of 138. 
 
I had know idea i was in such smart company... with my 132.  All i know is 
that i'm way to old to be as dumb as I am. 
 
I read your post carefully.. it wasn't really all that vague .. imho.   No 
one is questioning or doubting your intelligence.   Nor is age necessarily 
wisdom. 
 
>>Second, I don't pity myself. I'm actually proud of my ability to (Third) 
not give a damn what anyone thinks about me. 
 
I'm sorry.. but this is a very juvenile statement..  No one who really 
feels this way even bothers to say it... it's not an IQ thing.  It's more 
like an ability to put reason ahead of passion.   Life is going to be 
brutal yet..(if) you are on a (kundalini) path,  "my son".  In spite of 
those who will come along and tell you that you don't have to be this 
"martyr"..  that you are ..  it's not as much a choice as it appears 
sometimes.  Responsibility  comes with knowledge (but not with IQ ).  I 
know what I am talking about too. 
 
>>Fourth but not quite last, I HAVE a view of what I want to do with my 
life, and I'm happy with it. 
 
Well .. alright then,  I wasn't talking about you when i referred to young 
people who don't have any vision.   "Where there is no vision,  the people 
perish"..  ~~ Solomon~~ 
 
>>Fifth and final, I didn't mean I'm all those things ALL the time. I laugh 
at jokes and I can have fun playing games, reading books, talking with my 
brother in his final year in the house. I'm just saying, when I'm not 
distracted by bullshit, when I'm alone, when it comes right down to it, and 
what kind of a person I REALLY am, it's all of the things I listed. Just 
wanted to clarify, so don't anyone give me crap about follies of youth. I 
know everything about everything that I talk about. I NEVER talk about 
something I know nothing about, thus, if I'm talking about it, assume I 
know just as much or more than you. Oh well. You've formed your opinion by 
now I'm sure, so...whatever. Have a good day. 
 
Well..  "not knowing,  I can speak freely".. 
 
I know.. its grim sometimes... I have this gift for pissing people off.. 
because I am not good at telling them what they think they want to hear. 
You probably missed it, not giving a damn what I think, but I said.. 
"empathetically."   When you get a little smarter.. then you'll know how 
dumb you  really are.    That's the opinion I have formed.  I'll take it 
personally .. so you don't have to. 
 
you'd think (with my IQ)  i would learn to shut up,
