    Some people I work with have unbelievable IQ, they seem to know everything about everything. On the other hand I am always learning new things. I have learned so much this week it makes me wonder what the hell I have been doing for the last 25 years.

    Keep it up and eventually people will say that stuff about you. A lot of what you see when you meet someone "smart" is behind-the-scenes work and/or dedication. Natural "genius" is a good start, but it only gets you so far.

    Its Jar Jar Binks!

    In my experience very smart people can be very lazy too

    Sure they can put in some decent work for the group college project but it's all very last minute

    Well... that was sort of the point. That was how the pun was supposed to work :confused:

    (However, 148i is purely imaginary as its real component is 0, whereas, afaik, unreal numbers can have non-zero real part. The purely imaginary numbers form a proper subset of the unreal numbers; assuming that by unreal numbers you are referring to the imaginary or complex numbers.)

    You might want to redo that. :p

    not much point though in the grand scheme of things

    So people that know a lot of **** are super smart, that is awesome.

    Upon joining boards.ie this month I have learnt about picking up women in random places, how pointless religious vs atheist debates are, how inherently rascist taxi drivers are, gypsys who race horses on motorways whilst at the meantime costing the taxpayer hundreds of euros cleaning up the horse****, that Greece will start WW3 and kill millions of Jews, gay hitchhikers, cranky assholes who hates cats (why?), that people here can't spell women no good, how retarded some the threads are and basically about how ****ed we all are.



    Actually fu*k you I am going to make a retarded thread about what useless crap I learnt from here today....one sec.
