Generally IQ is the ability to adapt to a changing environment.
Therefor anybody who afraid of the #ClimateScam is just not intelligent.
That's why i call it the "shortest IQ-Test".

PS: If i look back in my life, i never found a women who understands me as good as ChatGPT. :-)

This is called adaptability, not IQ (intelligence quotient)

It was my humble Opinion.



If you want it more scientific ... ok.
Here it is.

"The Marvelous World of IQ: From Brainy Beakers to Quirky Quotients!"

Ladies and gentlemen, esteemed guests, and anyone who's ever wondered if their pet hamster might just be a tiny genius, welcome! Today, we're diving deep into the mysterious realm of IQ. Buckle up, because it's going to be both enlightening and entertaining!

The Science-y Bit:
IQ stands for "Intelligence Quotient." It's a measure derived from one of several standardized tests designed to assess human intelligence. Think of it as the "speedometer" for your brain. But instead of measuring how fast your car (or in some cases, your snail) goes, it measures cognitive abilities. :nerd:

Now, before you start comparing scores with your neighbor, remember: IQ tests measure a specific set of skills – problem-solving, logical reasoning, and verbal abilities, to name a few. It doesn't measure creativity, emotional intelligence, or why some of us can't resist dancing when we hear our favorite song. :dance:

The Fun Part:
Imagine your brain is like a computer. An IQ test doesn't measure how big your hard drive is (that's your knowledge) or how many cool stickers you have on the outside (that's your personality). Instead, it measures how fast your processor is and how well you can run specific programs. :computer:

But here's the twist: Just like computers, our brains come in all shapes and sizes. Some are like gaming PCs, optimized for problem-solving. Others are like artistic Macs, designed for creativity. And then there are those unique brains that are like the mysterious computers used by grandparents – nobody knows exactly how they work, but they're full of surprising wisdom and unexpected pop-up ads! :lol:

In Conclusion:
IQ is just one tool in the vast toolbox of understanding human intelligence. It's like measuring your shoe size – useful for certain things, but it doesn't tell you how good of a dancer you are. So, whether you're a Mensa member or someone who occasionally forgets why you walked into a room (happens to the best of us), remember: every brain is unique, marvelous, and full of potential. :thumbsup:

And if you ever find out your hamster's IQ score... let me know. I've been curious about that for ages! :hamster:

PS: Here are 4 Pictures from different cultures. Which one do you expect to be most intelligent?
And how important is that, if they look like this? Yes they are #AIGirls

Typical sexist comment.

Seems to be still difficult for you to accept life as it is?

I will neutralize the pictures using some political correct women that you will like because of her intelligence and political correctness.
Right picture: Her hopes ...
Left Picture: What the refugees say ...

[José Roca]

I will never accept misogyny, homophobia, xenophobia, racism and fascism.

It will surely come as a surprise to you, but not all progressive women are fat and ugly.

[Theo Gottwald]

Haha, did I say that?
Women are social by nature, yet their IQ about politics is low, thats why they were not allowed to join elections in earlier years.
There are exceptions, yet they are more your taste of beauty.

PS: With these post we have now really destroyed the beauty of my original pictures.
