nah we're not all equally smart. men are born equal, even though that would be convenient to say.
i am a person of average intelligence, but that's okay.
Intelligence is subjective to judgement, awareness is the true state of being.

i have a friend who knows how to shank and rob you, or to scheme how to screw you out of your money. but he doesn't know what the NSA is, and probably doesn't know that africa is a continent. and no, he's not brittish ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) You count people like this as 'friends'? yes, i am even open to befriending a brittish person. what can i say? i'm just a nice guy. Well, you shouldn't judge people by nationality cos dat's racist, but if they're stabbing and robbing people I'd advise against befriending these types of people.

I've never been formally tested but i think my IQ is pretty high because of the things my college professors used to say to me. I had one professor tell me that, "only in America is it possible for someone of your caliber to graduate from an institution of higher education." Then he asked me how much money my parents donated to the university.

Same here, but I know I have a high IQ because my parents told me what a clever little boy I was continually as I child, so I must be special.

IQ is practically irrelevant and I have a very high score - tested by Mensa in a classroom.
It is just a score used to highlight a persons ability to think logically in a number of different areas of testing. Its useful for very little other than boasting and belittling others!
What I have noticed with high IQ types is their inability to see problems holistically. This is where you see that some problems require a time line that isn't always connected but can still influence final outcomes.
The bitcoin community is a great example of it, where the number of zero sum forecasts of the effect that bitcoin will have seem infinite. Linked to this is the total lack of recognition of low priority people based problems and how they can change their impact with time.
Most people I know have far more useful qualities than a high IQ such as imagination, commitment, empathy, loyalty and honesty - these are far harder to test for, but are worth far more!

I happen to know a few weird brainiacs. They process information like a machine, analyse complex scientific problems but it's almost impossible to have a normal conversation with them. Imagine a guy who can hack into your pc but can't explain how he did it because of poor vocabulary.

seems like some of the smartest people have a certain portion/function of their brain turned, similar to autistic people and the idea of idiot savant. take a look at daniel tammet for example http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AbASOcqc1Ssp.s. hilariousandco, he's yet another gay brit.

Your response alone is enough to make me doubt you have a high IQ. Let me guess, you were one of majority who voted their IQ is higher than less one percent of the total population? Perhaps you don't understand what IQ measure. Don't think there's any utility in this poll's results. Well, I take that back... this is pretty entertaining.
