In Mensa!

What you're talking about isn't "real-world intelligence" its something more vague like "nouse", inwhich case your statement is true, high IQ isn't a good indicator of nouse.

I presume you mean "nous"?

When you say nous, are you talking the philosophical concept, or just being fancy when you could have said "common sense"?

Has he got rid of his account then, seeing as it's nowhere to be found? also, lying about what?

I don't know whether he closed his account or not, but a couple of our more belligerent members just kept giving him abuse whenever he posted. He's done quite a lot in his life so it makes him an easy target I suppose.
 
If only my friends who mock me for using a forum knew half of the stuff that turns up on here! Why would you post pictures of your wang on the internet, followed by a thread like is? Complete madness. Pure entertainment though - almost up there with 'with a little bit of luck' (<one of the funniest threads in OcUK history).

He got fed up with a couple of people keep calling him a liar and generally being abusive so he quit posting. He's in the US at the moment. I've tried to talk him into contributing, but I think he's too busy.

Strange. I followed some of his conversations actively and there was not much abuse directed at him. Well, not much more than what's normally directed at any given person. A shame really. He was one of the better posters.

Yep, one of the things he has done wrong is indicating what he had/was. People don't like successful people.

Did I confuse you? My apologies, let me break it down for you:

You are an overly bewildered juvenile seeking an abundance of approval where and when ever possible to justify your own existence. Perhaps you didn't get enough attention as a kid, maybe you're a sibling and your parents didn't love you the most, or maybe they're divorced and times got tough. Either way, you're now projecting most of your insecurities and shame onto the rest of the world in a bid to establish yourself.

Most people use this time in their lives (because it is a common thing) to project the notion of uncertainty onto their family friends or partner. But there's clearly something wrong at home, your friends probably feel alienated by your chosen route of projection (self-important bragging) and you clearly haven't had any attention from the female gender.

All of this coupled with your personality disorders has lead you down a self destruct route. You seek approval via both a negative and positive means, anything to bring attention to your characteristics as an individual and allow people to evaluate you. The negative evaluations are hurtful, sure, but you don't really care as it still gives you the chance to communicate to another human being about you and only you.

You'll post pictures of your penis for approval, tell people you're smart for approval, project an image of egocentric superiority for approval, defend yourself with open questions for the approval of those questions, all sorts.

Where does karma boil into all of this? Because you're so totally absorbed in yourself that you have finally reached the ultimate end of your journey, which is complete unadulterated public humiliation. I hope it tastes good. Sort your life out and stop projecting onto others, other than the fact it's entertainment, we really don't care. It's sad.

Spot on? It couldn't be further from the mark. :o

Just full of clichés...

Ahhh, the old 'post your penis on the internet then brag you're in mensa and have someone tell you you're pretty messed up in the head' cliché. Damn.

Couldn't be further from the mark? So what, you're really an old man humping extroverted woman who is pretty grounded in life? For someone so supposedly intelligent you spend a lot of time chatting out of the wrong hole.
 
My mum is in Mensa, it seems like Mensa is a load of rubbish, because my mum is not as knowledgeable as she thinks and fails working stuff out if you ask her a question.
