Discuss your intelligence (or lack thereof).

There are many different types. I'm quick to pick up on things, and I wear a good poker face 90% of the time, but I put barely any forethought into anything. I intend things, and my intentions just seem to present themselves to me to be taken advantage of. Couple that with the fact that my subconscious seems to work very efficiently- thoughts and ideas just pop into my head. I guess I mostly work at an instinctive level. Half the time I honestly scare the shit out of myself like a dumbass because I don't know what I'm doing. Sometimes I wish I had a plan instead of just a bunch of loose ideas.

But I'm awful at math, numbers break my brain. And because my personality type is apparently INTP with a smattering of ENTP, my emotional intelligence is something I've had to work on developing, as well as my empathy and sympathy. Though I feel I'm at a decent level with that now.

I don't know, Flood. Tell me how your brain works.

You guys seem to have some prodigious technical knowledge, if what I'm hearing is correct. Sometimes I wish I'd chased after more of that. But early on I realised I could be anything I wanted to be, and I didn't like what I saw ahead of me down most paths. I hate being told what to think or do, or do with what I know. I'm a bit of a prick like that.

Actually, you guys should bear that in mind; try not to let anyone use you for your skills if you don't believe in the cause. You'll end up unhappy that way.

Goji and Turkey might have you, but it's hard to tell because they're not as active as you are.

Goji and Turkey definitely have me when it comes to mathematics/science.

That used to bother me so much back when I was a socialist.

You have to make compromises with the rest of the human race, sure... but, uhm, so what is your outlook now?

I want to say that the multiple intelligence theory is a thing, but I also want to say it's just there to make people feel better about sucking at school.

I think it's more about utility, different people are useful for different things, and being useful makes us feel happy.

Erives · November 27, 2014, 03:47:31 AM

I really dont know. I pick up things quickly and I can pull miracles out of my ass by thinking quick. Im a visual and hands on learner. I also put too much thought into everything I do, dear god I put too much thought into everything I do. Yet I just do things that don't involve a lot of thought.

I just label my self as a dumbass with a quick wit.
