Give me your best exaggeration.
In the same vein as our friend with a 220 IQ in R/T, what claim do you want to make?

2. I might not have a 220 IQ on a 100 scale
but I know better than to engage narcissists.

I think we need to introduce the one in R&T to the one in the Skeptic's forum. I'll bet they'd make beautiful music together and the rest of us could simply sit back and watch the floor show.

5. I don't mean to boast, but once I visited mexico, and details turned up on FSTDT.com
specifically:

"No one knows what's happening until the flood comes (according to Matthew). And the flood is here - it refers to the apocalypse. There is a huge amount of supporting evidence on the site. For example, there is evidence for the wh0re of Babylon due to a 666 mile long penis in Mexico."

:rofl:

Except I'm switching from American to Canadian soon so the money is still worth something.

7. My name is actually Karl Barry Sharpless, and despite my acheivements,
the lying miscreants that made my wiki page about me only mentions one of my 220 Nobel Prizes.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/K._Barry_Sharpless

(In case you are wondering, that guy in real life is a flipping awesome chemist, though the Nobel Prize in chemistry should have made that obvious)

10. My name is actually Plankton Upshot
and the 220 volt wall socket standard is an homage from countries that recognize my brilliance. That, and recognition of the time I ate 220 buckets of fried chicken in one sitting.

I singlehandedly produce 1/3 of the world's oxygen supply!

15. I was wondering
who was diluting the 220 metric tons of carbon dioxide I exhale every minute. This world would be greener if you'd quit showboating.

17. Maybe, but it would also be a darker world if I stood up,
because the sun shines out of my arse.

8. I won the Fields Medal and the Olypmic Gold medal simultaneously,
because I solved my R_A's conjecture while 'racing' the 400m. (I don't know why they call it a race - it only feels like a light jog to me. But then again, I am so muscly that my biceps are 220cm in diameter)

9. I fought in six wars (at the same time), and won every medal available (from both sides)
because I survived 220 gunshot wounds to the head. That were all point-blank. And self-inflicted because no-one could hit me. And I only shot myself (with my personal bazooka) because I wondered what it would feel like. I'm that tough.

11. I invented a room-temperature superconductor.
It is made out of water, turns lead into gold, and cures cancer and AIDS. And ducks.

13. As for my IQ, a person named Vegeta once worked it out. (Well, he used the words
'power level' rather than IQ because we were battling with our minds.)

The results were filmed.

I also rule at misappropriating videos.

14. The electric currents in my brain set up a magnetic field.
It's strength? 220 gigaTeslas.

16. Speaking of veins I once cut a small one in my hand.
Edited on Fri Jun-13-08 01:37 AM by Random_Australian
The result? The pacific ocean.... and the sun.

And Betelgeuse.

Mr 220's name looks familiar. Haven't we seen R/T wackiness from him before?

27. How does a person with a 220 IQ think that saying he/she believes in god
Edited on Fri Jun-13-08 09:20 PM by GreenJ
disproves a study that say people with a higher IQ are less likely to believe in god. It doesn't say that no intelligent person believes in god. Maybe it's just me but it seems strange that a person with a 220 IQ couldn't figure that out.



On a related note. Can you imagine how advanced our society would be if it weren't for the internets. There are millions of geniuses typing away on the internets instead of curing cancer or building a better mouse trap.

Edit to add my exageration:

You don't know me, I mean I'm so smart they hooked me up to a big computer to try to teach it some things, but I had so much knowledge, it overloaded, and then it got really hot and caught on fire!

29. Because they are stupid. The real IQ test only correlates with intelligence, anyway.
Who knows what an ok-cupid IQ test correlates to.
