People value intelligence and will apply that label to themselves even if it may not be true. It's a hard thing to measure though IQ does it reasonably well. To those who have a high IQ: what is it like? Can you pick up any book, read it, and understand the gist with minimal repetition? Can you infer solid and accurate conclusions based on a small amount of evidence? Is any subject or discipline up for grabs or do you have to have a keen interest in a particular field in order to flourish? What is something you are able to do that you know is because of your intelligence -- the proverbial 1,000 pound deadlift of the brain, if you will.
There is no point to these questions other than curiosity.
There are just so many aspects to intelligence in my perspective that I think it is pretty difficult to articulate (maybe I am stupid lol)
Working in a niche IT field and being respected and lauded by peers definitely helps me think I am at least more intelligent than average.
I enjoy life and while it is despairing at time to see how braindead, drooling, mouth breathing retarded other humans are, but I don't want to be them. I just try to live my best life and use what I have in the best way I can, which I think lines up with intelligence as well.
