You’re misremembering the study I think you’re referencing, which was a 2015 study that was specifically about DAT, which is way more about creativity than intelligence, and it isn’t so much that they swear more often, it was specifically “ Participants were asked to list as many words that start with F, A or S in one minute.

The study found those who came up with the most F, A and S words also produced the most swear words.” That's a sign of intelligence "to the degree that language is correlated with intelligence," said Jay, who authored the study.

Which yeah, isn’t really a sign of traditional intelligence at all, the same study also found that it doesn’t have correlation to people who choose to swear more in the day to day, just that people who knew more words with f as the first letter under a 2 minute span also knew more swear words.

I worked with a guy who was a legitimate genius. He was very, very clever at his chosen subject and has even invented devices that are now used in the biomedical sciences field as standard, but he was completely clueless about normal everyday things. He never bragged about how smart he was, and would often joke that he had a below average IQ when it came to common sense, of which he had little to none. I once walked into the laundry room to find him staring at the washing machine in confusion. They had just put in new machines which had numerous different types of wash cycles, and he was clueless about which one to choose. Most people would choose a cycle, any cycle if they weren't sure. He was frozen with indecision because he didn't have enough information to make the choice. That's the thing about smart people...they're generally only smart about their chosen subject because that's what they focus all of their time and attention on.
I can confirm that! There are a few highly complicated things i`m pretty good at. But when it comes to stuff i dont care about and havent done jet i look like a total fool. But most of the time thats fine. Its only a problem when people think that because they are smart that they are good at everything and know about everything. Or lets say t this way really smart people only talk on topics they actually know about and shut the f up when they have no clue.

Fr, I consider myself kind of intelligent but I don’t go around saying “my intelligence levels are so high that I cannot bring myself to communicate with you uneducated commoners 🤓” and doing goofy ahh IQ tests just to show off my score (the tests are probably inaccurate anyway because practically everyone who does them gets like fucking 130) 😭💀

Did you ever hear the tragedy of Darth Plagueis The Wise? I thought not. It's not a story the Jedi would tell you. It's a Sith legend. Darth Plagueis was a Dark Lord of the Sith, so powerful and so wise he could use the Force to influence the midichlorians to create life… He had such a knowledge of the dark side that he could even keep the ones he cared about from dying. The dark side of the Force is a pathway to many abilities some consider to be unnatural. He became so powerful… the only thing he was afraid of was losing his power, which eventually, of course, he did. Unfortunately, he taught his apprentice everything he knew, then his apprentice killed him in his sleep. Ironic. He could save others from death, but not himself.
I had mine tested when I was being diagnosed with ASD. see people who don't understand IQ believe IQ makes them smart but a high IQ just means that you can absorb and understand information faster and easier than others. I did a online test and scored average of 132 out of 3 tests but it was a free test so it's accuracy isn't guaranteed. The funny thing is I'm also dyslexic so people will automatically think I'm dumb because I miss spell and grammar things and I let them think that because then they underestimate me. Usually people with high IQ are good at a specific thing because that's what they put Thier time and effort into. Thinking you can know something just because you're "smart" Like for me is cars and mechanics/engineering. For example as an 8yr old I learned to drive a manual car just from watching my mum drive and stole my first car at the age of 10. My obsession with cars is why I was tested for ASD. Only people who think they are smart brag about being smart like the ones who are weak go around acting hard barking in your face but the ones who know they are hard have no need to go around acting ARD. the 4 years old thing I'm pretty sure they can't test for autism or IQ until you're at least 10+ I was diagnosed at 10 with asperger's syndrome but now it's called ASD as we are not allowed to call it asperger's syndrome.

I jest, but if you can't see your own contradictions, then you're not proof reading your assertions. Not to be taken seriously. Communism is in fact the early Anglo-Saxon attempt at fair distribution. The Normans tried very hard put paid to that. But so enduring is the Saxon culture that up to this very day the concept of common land and common law still has some bite. Starting a sentence with actually and then going on to put words in my mouth and then discrediting them is naïve at best, disingenuous at worst. . I'm glad you pointed out you're an American student of history, I'd never have guessed. Edit: Ref Normans.

The thing about this are, not only are iq tests a HORRIBLE way to measure intelligence (there’s too many ways to be intelligent), but people who are actually smart typically don’t feel the need to brag about it and are able to say they don’t know something
I took a developmental psychology course in college for my education degree. The main focus of the course was learning about the various types of intelligence children/people have and how a person cannot be judged by only one type. A person's scores vary hugely depending on how their day is going, how safe they feel, how many of their needs are going unmet on a daily basis, and thousands of other factors. IQ testing is fallible as fuck.

I commented on George's video "Americans baffle me", saying that Europeans aren't all that great compared to the great empires of Asia, Africa, and the Americas (bad explanation) and some guy named Simonengland (hmm wonder where he's from) said:
"@FishAviation Karl Marx and Frederich Engels were Scottish and they invented an entire political philosophy? I jest, but if you can't see your own contradictions, then you're not proof reading your assertions. Not to be taken seriously.
Communism is in fact the early Anglo-Saxon attempt at fair distribution. The Normans tried very hard put paid to that. But so enduring is the Saxon culture that up to this very day the concept of common land and common law still has some bite.
Starting a sentence with actually and then going on to put words in my mouth and then discrediting them is naïve at best, disingenuous at worst. .
I'm glad you pointed out you're an American student of history, I'd never have guessed.
Edit: Ref Normans. I'm not a student of French history, but my French friends assure me that the concept of common land was recognised by the Normans... at home. In England they ignored it as much as they could."
Naturally, after some back and fourth, I gave this man and his r/iamsmart ahh brain what he wanted: @simonengland6448 alright, well thank you for your insight. You teaching English definitely explains your word choice and vocabulary. I’d like to visit Europe sometime because I’m sure it’s a wonderful place. Remember that TH-cam comments is not a very good place for a debate :)
Obviously I didn't mean it lol. A lot of people agreed with me that he was trying too hard to be an intellectual
2:05 is literally the plot of a short story by a classic horror/sci-fi writer.
Kid born near a nuclear power plant in the 50's becomes super genius and starts corresponding anonymously with newspapers and universities.
Finds it weird that everybody just accept anonymous letters, then finds out it's surprisingly common. Why? Bc he's not the only kid who was born near a nuclear power plant and who has mutant intelligence!
0:37 *>Criticises use of filler words*
*>Uses filler words*
Beautiful handwriting as always, George.
George im so impressed at what an intellectual you are
That 14yo wrote a whole essay to find validation in his own special level of intelligence, and he starts it all off in the first sentence with “I will do not” Lmfao, these people are so adorable
lol, love the character he played. Cracked me up😂
Thermopylae - Where the 300 Spartans fought the Persians in one of the most famous, "Last Stands," of all time.
Tobacco causing cancer was "pseudoscience" at one time.
I can attest very few people hate themselves enough to read quantum physics in their spare time.
"i was raised by a dictionary and do not consider colloquialisms, or "slang", to be a valid part of the english lexicon."
Yes, I believe it was Tolstoy who said...
Posting in reddit is a proof of the lack of intelligence of the people posting in it.
2:26 bro needs to shut up and sit down at some therapy
George “Athena” Memeulous never fail to make me kick my legs in the air and giggle like a little bitch
Genuinely intelligent people dont want anyone knowing how intelligent they are, playing dumb keeps expectations for you low
I was unironically interested in the car market crash post and goddamnit he didnt read it
I mean, I read books about quantum physics, but not to flaunt it or study it. I read almost everything and anything I can get my hands on, and science was one of my first passions growing up, so I just gravitate towards it (no pun intended).
Also, 04:41 - "clandestine roof for fun"? Clandestine means secretive, hidden away. Not so hidden when it's lambasted on the internet, time and date. Would have had a better chance arranging it under a rock 😂
nice to see you did a collab with james Marriott for this one, although idk why he was only at the start and end and didn't read any reddit posts with you
The irony of someone talking about filler words then putting "comunicating skills" after already using articulation. They basically said "related to intelligence and articulation of articulation"
This is Dutch humor! And you are great at it.
Quantum physics is the coolest shit ever 10/10 would recommend
It’s actually kind of fun but also hurts my brain when I think about it too much 😍
@@Vanilla3609 Same but just think of it as exercising your brain...and try not to have an existential crisis 🤣🤣
@@JL-xz3zf if you want some brain exercise I'll recommend topology or statistics. First is funny, second is one of the most unnatural math fields for our brains
@@stannumowl I had an advanced statistics module many years ago and I hated it! You're right it was definitely not natural for my brain lol
It’s a good day when George posts
Bot
Guy at 0:48 talks about filler words, but use more crooked grammar than necessary to try and show off. Oh, the irony.
I like the fake pompous British accent put above the real British accent to assert even more intellectual dominance.
This is hard to get through
medieval era people called dinosaurs, dragons. youre welcome
'lost the manuscript'/// anyone with iq over 140 has identic memory so it would nt matter if you lost anything
fun fact: The battle at Thermoplyae was real but it has nothing to do with physcology(forgive my spelling) it was just a straight up masscre of the greeks. Persians trying to invade Greece had to cross the pass known today as the Hot gates, only around 2000 greeks stood against 300,000 Persians it was just a straight up murder. You may know this story as the 300 spartans
1:50 The one thing this kid didn't look up was the Dunning-Kruger effect.
George did 9 GCSEs and passed them all, quantum physics is a cakewalk
hope i pass all mine! I wanna be just a smart as george one day 🤞
Not only have I watched every Ted talk, I've actually talked to Ted
Gotta love that fourteen years old boy trying to flex such remote and unknown things as the Arthurian Legends or the battle of Thermopylae, starring such obscure, minor historical figures as King Leonidas of Sparta. Y'know, a thing that every child in the world is taught about in school at the age of ten.
Not that I was much better at that age... I just didn't have Reddit access to brag about it.
And his attempt to flex was just so laughably fake. Reactor Four where? (People who mean to refer to Chernobyl say Chernobyl.) What work by Archimedes, specifically? Best of all, "Nero's Fiddle" lol.
People aren’t taught that at least not anymore I’m pretty sure
George the intellectual with Garfield and a picture of a pint on the shelf instead of any books.
The finals is fun and all but that guy isn't special for playing it 😭😭
You're a smart boy, George
George really starting to get creative with these intros
People like this are basically Billy No Mates.
My timid yet adventurous mind could not quite understand this inadequate level of paradox and reasoning. I am just a computer scientist looking for a route to trek in life. I speak in binary, but my words come out as a soft hymn storytelling my superior level of vocabulary between your ears.
Life is like a soft shadow, gliding through the sunset 'till dawn. My mind will glaze through and translate these movements that I make to a soft touch upon your soul.
Oh no, self reflection time 😭
Ah yes, if you don't look like an ai generated girl with four fingers on your left hand and very long fingers on your right hand, don't swipe left!
George has read so many reddit posts he's going to become a self proclaimed 'reddit genius'
I AM LOVING THE LEGO IN THE BACKKK !!🤞🤞
Pfff, if someone say something like "I've been reading books on quantum physics" you just ask them "Oh cool, did you learn anything?" and you proceed to ask them to explain. If they are as much as a poser as they are portraying, they will soon be digging that hole deeper and deeper.
I feel like george was the only kid in the class that had a reading age equal to his actual age
I watch you everyday and keep up with the good work
Dunning Kerger goes quite hard
The thing about this are, not only are iq tests a HORRIBLE way to measure intelligence (there’s too many ways to be intelligent), but people who are actually smart typically don’t feel the need to brag about it and are able to say they don’t know something
“I watched Catch Me if U Can. I can do what Frank Abagnale Jr did.”
I took a developmental psychology course in college for my education degree. The main focus of the course was learning about the various types of intelligence children/people have and how a person cannot be judged by only one type. A person's scores vary hugely depending on how their day is going, how safe they feel, how many of their needs are going unmet on a daily basis, and thousands of other factors. IQ testing is fallible as fuck.
