Last time I did one of these pseudo IQ tests, I scored 136, which technically isn't genius, but it's definitely approaching genius territory.

Who am I kidding. Everyone knows I'm a genius.

Anyone who knows me well knows that I'm blantantly immodest. It's all in harmless fun. Just my sense of humour (or lack of).

I'm pretty great.

That means in 1950 your IQ would have been around 200. You can thank inflation for your mediocre intelligence.

Ha ha. I was kidding. My point was that IQ test scores have been adjusted throughout the years to accommodate our increasing intelligence. This means a person who scores 150 today is smarter than a person scored 150 sixty years ago.

I'm full of useless facts like this.

I don't think ppl are more intelligent now than in the past - i'd say IQ testing methodolody has varied a great deal over the years.

Though hard to believe, it's true. I'm pretty sure it's described as the Flynn effect.
