I Am Stupid
It’s official, I am Stupid. I took an online IQ test, and I am below average intelligence, and I am so happy about it (possibly proving my stupidity). I guess this could explain my terrible spelling and grammar, although truthfully that’s more to do with never checking what I write, and being very lazy. There were only 30 questions, with multiple choice answers from A to D. The time allowed for the test was 15 minutes. So I clicked ’start test’ and 5 minutes later clicked ‘result’. I thought it would be interesting to click any answer from A to D at random, without bothering to select the correct answer. Then I planned to re-do the test seriously, this time I would choose which answer I thought was the correct one. Unfortunately after taking the test the first time, I was told I could not re-take the test again on the same computer, Oops … so now I have an officially low IQ. I guess that was my first ’stupid’ mistake, not reading the rules. Had I read them I would have known that my first attempt was also my last, at least on that site anyway. Surprisingly I was not upset by my score, which popped up on screen almost immediately. I thought it was funny, yet more proof of my low IQ no doubt? My laughter soon ceased when the website kept sending me e-mails confirming my below average IQ. The e-mails did tell me that I was with 34% of the people who took the test in the below average group, the slightly above average group also had 34% of the people who took the test. So that’s 68% the remaining 32% (no I didn’t have to use my paws to work that out), were distributed between a few other sets. The people with the highest IQ on this site were a solitary 2%. So basically most of the people who took the test on this site were/are stupid like me. There is a major upside to being officially stupid though, now I don’t have to concern myself with anything I don’t want to, and people won’t expect much of me ,I am after all, stupid. I’m not finding it so funny now though because Yoelson thinks it’s hilarious, in fact I think I will search this afternoon for another site and take an IQ test seriously. Yoelson said he wants to try it too, he’s convinced he’s got a a higher IQ than me, time will tell. Although at first he enjoyed teasing me, today he has been cheering me up about being stupid. Yesterday when I told him my result he laughed and said, “well at least you are gorgeous”! Right now for that search … how do you spell IQ?
