Lower IQ people know more about celebrities and the latest happenings in the currently popular soap/TV show.

Or is that just women?

I'm confused.

yeah! all women are dumb bitches.

why can't all women spend less time on celebrity gossip and more time endeavouring to improve their minds in order to become as smart and unbigoted as you?

XD indeed an unfortunate comment
popular people give a sense of comunity i think that's why many old people that live alone (at least here in spain) are so interested in those heart driven tv shows, it's like they make famous people part of your family.
it has to do with feeling, both extraverted and introverted.

Being happy and going to bed early. People with high Iq s tend to go to bed later and get depressed more, according to something I read somewhere. Plus they don't have to worry about how weird it is they are conscious and that there's all this matter everywhere and none of it makes any sense and maybe dualistpanpsychism is true but maybe materialism is actually real but then how and whyyyyyy God whyyyyyy what the hell is going on aaaaaaaaaaaaaaargh FUCK this I'm going to watch cartoons.

Well speaking for myself...
I'm frightfully good at putting things in, or indeed taking them out of people.
I also drink a MEAN whisky.

I think they can possibly be better at all the areas IQ tests do not meassure + I can't tell if it is true that person scoring higher on one concrete IQ test is better at that because I am not albe to tell if they both put in maximal effort etc.

So it can be all or nothing in extreme cases both sides...

Driving, sports, socialising, getting a date, and doing the other things that most people find more naturally easy than Sheldon Cooper.

I have to correct this person because in season 8 Sheldon tells a police officer this quote.But its by sherlock Holmes. Only to the knowledge I have mind you.

In those tests I'm very bad at taking in information as it is. You have to manipulate it by the rules. I mean I start think about the theoretical framework why this test is like this and what if I could write computer program to do this or make it to solve to them or how this relates to this. You know what? It lowers your measurable processing speed, takes huge chunk of your short term memory and therefore lowers your IQ. I'm really bad at this. Constantly processing information that is not there.
Mine measured IQ is somewhere 115+-10.

You can also conclude that I'm very lousy driver.

Actually when your IQ is around 80 it starts to take toll on your ability to... drive.

I find it inaccurate. I'm able to get PhD in hard sciences at least when we talk about chemistry quite easily. That would make me at least above 130. I don't buy into that.

There is so much that IQ doesn't measure.

A person with a lower IQ but more energy passion and determination can go further in a field than a mere high IQ person with a superiority complex.
