OK, let’s have some fun this morning. At 5:30 am, I’m sitting in the United Club at the Orlando airport. My carefully plotted business trip hit a snag. Meeting in Chicago cancelled. Rearrange flights. I get home a day early, but I get to take an early flight.
There was an article at Big Think that picked up on a variety of studies of indicators of higher intelligence. I probably hit 10 of the 16. Those of you who know me personally can probably figure out most of the 10. And definitely some that I’m not (atheist, for example; and I don’t own a cat although I have a couple of times).
First list, eight signs you’re smarter than average:
- You’re the oldest child
- You took music lessons
- You’re thin
- You’ve used recreational drugs
- You have a cat
- You don’t smoke
- You’re left handed
- You’re tall
Second list:
- Night Owl
- Introvert
- Was breastfed
- Liberal politically
- Reading early
- Being funny (and sexy)
- Atheist
- [teenagers with higher IQs tended to be virgins in high school]
Have fun with it. Use it at the next party. I won’t even ask if you put any stock in these lists. 😉
And sitting in an airport at 5:30 am is probably never going to make that list!
