Not saying you are, but I always love it when people who are most likely of average intellect believe they're good judges of who is and isn't intelligent.
They typically believe an intelligent person will hold the same beliefs that they do; as they consider themselves intelligent. In reality, it's typically the exact opposite. Typically highly intelligent people will be rather different from average people and will say things that the average person considers to be quite stupid.
Hence the quote in Idiocracy: "For the smartest guy in the world, you're pretty dumb sometimes".
For the smartest guy in the world, you're pretty dumb sometimes:

I took an IQ test because my father is Mensa so I wondered if I have any of those traits. I scored a 144 and still dont know what the hell it means so I am in the dumbass high IQ percentile.
Bottom line.it means zero -

Smartness is in no way defined by IQ. Education, in my opinion, is a much more adequate meter of intelligence.
For example, consider that a small child may have an IQ of 150, does he see other people like in the movie? No, most adults are better than him/her in every possible (intellectual or otherwise) aspect. -

There are different measures of IQ but being smart is a generally agreed benchmark regardless of how it is reckoned.
Being educated is a good thing regardless of IQ, but education will not bring someone with a low IQ up to genius level. It may, however help them to be more productive, more driven, more able to reason and see the world in a more critical light. Some people are just clever and some are just stupid.

Dumb people often see themselves as smarter than they really are. It's called the Dunning Kruger effect.
There will always be someone dumber than you and someone smarter than you. And then there are all the different types of intelligence.

1 - I have no problem of social awareness. Only problem with social skills.
2 - Don't judge someone only based on the stupidities they like to write on a movies website where people take movies way too seriously. You proved something on you right there.
3 - You should read one of my books. I keep the intelligent parts in there.
Luckily, as I'm beep rich, I don't feel penalized over my limited social skills because I compensate elsewhere.
smart is good smartass is not.
Why you wanted to reply to me at the first place?
Wrong answer.
Now Think twice. -

I can't help but wonder how were you able to write a book considering your grammar.
Hell, I'm not even a native speaker and your post hurt my eyes.
But I guess you can pretend to be just about anyone on the internet. -
