Are you intelligent?

[nyk45]

Lol.

Not that simple.

Who defined it anway?

Was that person wise enough to define it?

[Saram0n]

You are getting into the psychological meaning. I think this is about the literal meaning.

[nyk45]

Hmm.

Allright.

But is staying with the literal meaning being intelligent?

You can't run of of questions.

[Saram0n]

I am intelligent enough to know i cannot hope to define the psychological meaning of intelligence. However, after two years, a team of 52 intelligence researchers came up with the following definition:

"A very general mental capability that, among other things, involves the ability to reason, plan, solve problems, think abstractly, comprehend complex ideas, learn quickly and learn from experience. It is not merely book learning, a narrow academic skill, or test-taking smarts. Rather, it reflects a broader and deeper capability for comprehending our surroundings—"catching on", "making sense" of things, or "figuring out" what to do."
-Gottfredson, L.S. (1997). "Foreword to “intelligence and social policy”" Intelligence 24 (1): 1-12. doi:10.1016/S0160-2896(97)90010-6.

But still.

You are intelligent when you disagree with someone.

So if I disagree with that definition. Does that make me not-intelligent?

[SUBLIMEinfinity]

Nyk- ROFL. :)

Droid- You're trying too hard mate.

Intelligence is discussing what makes us intelligent.

Intelligence, although far beyond the grasp of substantial definition, is indeed a very literal thing. Lightyears moreso than in the philisophical sense.

We can sit and shoot the breeze about them brains for years, the bottom line being, the fact that we can shoot the breeze earns us medals of honor for that little "intelligence" thing.

I know you guys are expecting some epic, groundbreaking, massive monster of viscera to just spew out of my keyboard.


But; at the end of the day... this is good enough...

Saram0n your wit simply beguiles me, I'm at no level to possibly compete with you in this murky abyss of words and slanderous tongues.

These one liners and cliche hooks are leaving me gasping for breath.

I could never fully comprehend the magnitude of your words.

Thus; I will never try and put my finger on your eternal morpheme.

I would look silly. You guys would revel in my blasphemy 'til I ripped my fingers off my callused hands. My exile would be that of mythical degrees.

From my first day of captivity as I sit and think in my lingual box, to the last day of my breath, when I'm screaming in my literal box....

Saram0n, my friend, your sheer mental grit is unfathomable.

I go sit in mah cohna. =\

[nyk45]

sub- ahahaha. love the pic. both of them.

sara- I know, that's my point. Being able to agree and disagree makes us intelligent too.

[Saram0n]

okay. btw please dont call me sara. i prefer saram or saram0n b/c sara is a girl name.

PS:lol. sub just burned me and i hav no idea how but in about 2 days i will realize what he has said. i think the rsa forums are 1000 times better now that hes back, though.

btw, my morpheme is -ness
