I think it's funnier that over 7% of the people have IQ's lower than 60. Having an IQ of lower than 60 is like 1 in 100,000.

So far, it's 9 below normal and 108 above normal. Sounds like we have a lot of "Abby's" here:

I've been seeing this thread now for months and thought I should finally join in.
My IQ is 215.
Just kidding. It's pretty remarkable that over a third of the people on this site are above 140 or at genius level. Is this a recovery website or Mensa International? Very interesting thread.

Here's an (interesting?) way to view this data that just occurred to me. It's pretty clear to me, from some of the posts above, that the bunch down at the bottom, with one or two exceptions perhaps, are protest votes. Let's say, just for the heck of it, we subtract the same number of protest votes from the top range. What's left? Isn't it, more or less, a bell curve highly skewed towards the high end? Isn't that what many of us expected, more or less? Interesting? You decide.

Sounds like another (mild) protest to me D. Perhaps you're right though, maybe the high end should be adjusted downward more.
Can't help it, reaching feels like good exercise.

Why is this important to you? Is it validation that you are special? Can you not see the inflated ego in this post? It's as if you are searching for validation of the disease...the Phoenix rising. It's a manifestation of the addiction just in another form.
Dsober you don't need any of this. You are the beggar on the box filled with gold in Eckhart Tolles parable. Just open the box. You are fooling yourself with all this nonsense. You have what you are looking for and what you need already. Your spinning Worlds, Coexist and these silly posts are just distractions keeping you from the real gold inside you.

Btw, the tattoo I've been seriously thinking about getting (it will be my first) is a triangle with a phoenix rising in the middle; I feel it's quite appropriate and I want something more permanent than the triangle ring I currently wear every day.
