You just got a good memory
And dumb people tell they're smart
Smart people tell they're dumb
I have ADHD, so while I always score really well on some parts of IQ tests (logic, problem solving, spatial awareness etc), I do terribly badly on others. If a question requires working memory above a certain threshold, failure is pretty much guaranteed.
I also think that I might have ADHD and also high IQ. But no one understands my thought payterns and calls me overthinker. Right now I m just struggling as I don't have the confidence to tell this to my parents as they kinda don't believe in disorders.So can we please talk somewhere so that I can know more about ADHD. That will be highly appreciated. Once I m sure I will get the confidence to go get checked.
As a fellow person with ADHD, this is so relatable 😂
@@saurabhjarodia335 some people think that in order to have high iq you need to. Do those things or else your not a high iq intellectual. (Sorry for the bad grammar)
@@fliksn they need to do what? (sorry I forgot what was in video)
@@saurabhjarodia335 that they need to be in Harvard at age 10 or something thats very hard to acomplish. Is basically what i mean
I think we shouldn't only do IQ tests but instead a test that poses questions from multiple categories, like the video already mentioned. I, personally am very bad at maths but I know myself very well and am very empathetic. Also I love being creative and can learn languages rather fast. My point is, just because someone might not do that great on a logic based IQ test, does not mean that someone is stupid. It just means people have different types of intelligence.
I am fairly certain that it's called EQ (emotional intelligence) in this case.
Despite that i have asperger meaning that math for me is imposible to undestand,at least i'm able to explain other mathematical things,that makes sense and has a function. For example
100g=30g
375g=x. X= 375•30
100(:↑) =112,5
For curious people,thats the gastronomical way of calculating butlers,clients,grams, kcal.
I’m going to be blunt here, being emotionally intelligent =\= smart, an emotionally intelligent flat earther who can’t even spell his name right is not smart.
@@user-fi9cu4ms7z Alright buddy, you do you
@@user-fi9cu4ms7zI'd go as far as to say not all flat earthers are dumb. Just misinformed and potentially lack some EQ. After all many smart people go against the grain that is believed by most. It's just that in this case there's been lots who have gone to space. So you'd have to deny a lot of other people
So there’s a difference between actual stupidity and unawareness. Unawareness is making a mistake.
Stupidity is _confidently_ making a mistake.
Guess im stupid
Yep
Same
I’m confidently unaware that I just made a mistake
Stupidity has to do with not taking responsibility for things most people could take responsibility for. So stupidly making a mistake means to do something without understanding the consequences or taking responsibility for it. Unawareness in this sense is difference, because that's passive. Its the lack of understanding essentially. It doesn't do anything by itself until it somehow becomes a problem. That's when unawareness turns into a stupid mistake.
Edit: I realized I misunderstood a few details of what you said (I have dyslexia). Just making it explicit that I didn't edit my original answer so it might be slightly confusing.
so, we're still dumb

Man i had to think about why i got that bat and ball question wrong for a while. I had to think of it instead as, "the combo must equal 1.10" instead of "the bat is 1 dollar more". Shifting perspectives on problems helps a lot to solve strange things like this which also should call out an obvious thing, Interpretation and Wording is key in all problems.
same! it really helped me when I reminded to reread the question lol
As soon as I read the bat costs 1$ more. I removed the 1$ and divided the rest by 2. 😅
@@metallboy25 why need to Divide by 2?
@@yaenajinjae7574because when the bat cost 1$ more it has to be some cost equal to the ball and plus 1
@@yaenajinjae7574
The ball is 0.05, the bat is 1.05.
Let the cost of the ball be x.
Bat = x + 1
x + x + 1 = 1.10
2x + 1 = 1.10
2x = 1.10 - 1 = 0.10
x = 0.10/2 = 0.05

"How much does the ball cost?"

i had a feeling it was a trap but i thought it anyways lol
.05 + 1.05
Nah, just logic.
Knock the difference (1.00) off the 1.10 and what you have left (0.10) will be two equal amounts as there's no difference there any more. So being that they're equal, split that in half for the ball (0.05)
i solved it correctly ; but by bring the problem into an equation; when :
x is the bat and y is the ball
so x=y+1$
then x+y=1.10$
means that (y+1$)+y=1.10$
so y+1$+y=1.10$
2y+1$=1.10$
so 2y=1.10$-1$
2y=0.10$
y=0.10$\2
y=0.05$
therefore x=0.05$+1$=1.05$
and we can check out the answer by replacing the variables with them values : 1.05$+0.05$=1.10$

I got the ball and bat question correct, and I can confirm I’m indecisive, non-religious and politically incorrect! It’s almost like the FBI have me figured out 😂 (I do have a slight advantage being a further mathematics student, so I’ve been trained to read the question carefully!)
All these years I thought being indecisive was a sign that my intelligence might be lower than the average. 🤔
I still don't get how the ball is 5 cents lol
I am also mathematics ...also found the correct answer...yeah we trained to read the question carefully and repeatedly
@@thehomieteez the bat is $1 more than the ball. If the ball was 0.10 then the bat would have to be 1.10, which would bring the total of the bat and ball to 1.20. Therefore the ball can only be 0.05. Therefore the bat is 1.05 ($1 more than the ball) this brings the total to 1.10, which is what the question asks
When he asked the question my brain immediately shouted 10cents almost involuntarily but I just knew that was wrong. So I paused and calculated and then gave the right answer. Also, I think I'm decisive and pretty inclusive and considerate with people.
This is why they say a jack of all trades is a master of none but is always better than a master of one. I learnt different things from music to art to sports and that made me a more well rounded person and I guess that filled some of my mindware gaps.

i remember back in primary school i asked the teacher if detergent was a liquid or a solid and she said it was a solid liquid
My brain: "The ball is probably like $0.50, the $1.10 total is probably a combo deal."
10 - 50 = 40 or i think you are just joking
@@stonefacewiththedrip3377 What he means is that, stores do deals such as: If you buy something, they'll offer something else at a lower price...
For example:
If you pay for a bat, it'll be $0.80
If you pay for a ball, it'll be $0.50
Total cost: $1.30
The store will offer you a deal. If you buy both (aka combo deal), they'll lower the total price to $1.10
I was thinking the same thing, then i realised that it would not be possible to work out the specific shop sale reduction
Cuz it could be buy one, get the cheapest free, 50% off, 75% off or just bat and ball combo package
I was thinking this too. Just a more open-minded solution.

I answered 5 cents and got the bat and ball question correct. To my surprise, everything you said that applied to that type of person was correct. I am extremely indecisive to the point where I sometimes let others make the choice for me. Although a lot of people call me intelligent, I feel I lack a lot of wisdom that those same type of people have.
5 cents isn’t correct in my universe
For the people that don't get it here's the equation and stuff so that you'll understand why it is not $0,10
Let's call the cost of the ball "x" dollars. According to the information you provided, the bat is $1 more expensive than the ball.
So, the cost of the bat would be "x + $1."
Together, the ball and the bat cost $1.10. Therefore, you can create the following equation:
x (cost of the ball) + x + $1 (cost of the bat) = $1.10
Now, you can solve for x:
2x + $1 = $1.10
Subtract $1 from both sides:
2x = $1.10 - $1
2x = $0.10
Now, divide both sides by 2 to find the cost of the ball (x):
x = $0.10 / 2
x = $0.05
So, the ball costs $0.05, or 5 cents.
Now it costs 2 balls and a dollar to buy a bat?
I’m still sitting here trying to figure out what bat costs 1.05
👉 let the price of the ball = X cents
👉Now we know that the bat is 1$ more than price of the ball ,so
👉Price of bat = 1 + X
👉total price = 1 $ and 10 cents
👉also total price is sum of the price of ball & bat = (1 + X) + X
i.e Total price = 1 + 2X
Now we equate 1 + 2x & 1 $ and 10 cents (because they are both the same)
👉1 + 2X = 1 $ and 10 cents
👉2X = 10 cents
👉X = 5 cents
Since "X" is the price of the ball, the final answer is 5 cents
@@mrxinnovations809 he's talking irl, no bat would cost 1.05

I always love the way he says "Hei, 42 hea" .
When I saw that question the first thing I said was "9!" and then I spent 1 whole minute trying to understand why did I said 9 when it was obviously 0.05 cents. And I didn't even think in cents and dollars, I just suddenly thought "9!"
How much is the ball?
Me: *Pauses the video*
Me, after 3 minutes of thinking about it: $0.05
Same here
Lol same
How???
Oh god now you got me thinkin’
BRO IT DOESNT MAKE SENSE I’m actually pissed bro like WHY!!!!
Did you get 10 cents? Well your wrong

When he said that about the bat I thought to myself: probably a tricky thing I’m not even gonna bother in trying to solve lol (tricky pricing)
That’s your lazy brain. The average person can concur that it’s a trick question
Same I was just thinking if I do some easy algebra, id get the right answer so I’m not gonna try to solve it anyways cause i know id be right lmfao
That's what I thought. Then I also thought that the more effort I put into it, the worse I'll feel when I get it wrong, so fuck that.
Yeah my brain automatically popped up with the $0.10 answer, but I knew that it was a trick question and didn’t bother trying to do the mental math it would take to actually find the correct answer. Fuck that. I don’t do head math.
@@skylaroconnor2903 same answer apparently
these trick questions are just annoying in general

Don’t call me out like that
bring me a computer, my iq rises to five hundred
tell me to wash the dishes, my iq goes zero.
i call this:
me
Same
Does washing dishes need a high iq? Almost everyone is like that mate washing dishes don't stimulate your brain and bore you so you go manually. So call this everyone not just you
@@D4nshaku that's the point, it doesn't stimulate my iq at all. normally, i wouldn't think at all and carry on my day while doing stuff which technically makes my iq 0. going on the computer however makes me sitmulate my brain thing bc it's advanced and basic at the same time
@@sweetcisteen I don't know about you man but i like to think that chores that requires no brainpower as therapeutic. Sort of like a meditation to me. Since I'm a cognitive miser I don't like thinking XD
Iq is not horsepower
My first instinct was to say 10 cents but then I paused and used algebra after doing a brief sanity test of adding 0.1 and 1.10. If b is the cost of the ball, then b+(b+1)=1.10 because b+1 is the cost of the bat as stated in the problem. This simplifies to 2b+1=1.1, and using algebra, b=0.05 (subtract 1 from both sides to get 2b=0.1, then divide both sides by 2 to get the answer)
After watching this video 5 times, and seeing the question in the start on twitter 15 times, i finally answered the question right 👍
"Your brain hates thinking"
Seriously! My mind kept thinking 10 cents and then something in my mind broke. I thought about it again and the same thing. Third time finally figured it out. It's like my mind knew something was wrong, but it wouldn't give up "10" and refused to think further until I just bothered it enough to do so.
Yup, passive aggressively arguing with my brain.
I just missed the "bat and ball *together*" part and thought it said the bat alone cost $1.10
Yes
Yes
Ive thought about this for 5 minutes and i still dont understand
I still dont understand-
When ask me why I do stupid things
My response is always:
"Because I was born at a young age"
You say that, but being born prematurely is a real thing.
@@SirYodaJedi Thank you for saying that, I know it really is. I just don´t believe that it actually applies on this case because the person said "at a young age" I know you probably interpreted that as "at a young age on the womb of my mother" (not exactly with this words but you got it lol) but when someone talks about age we always refer to the time after the person is born (so it doesn´t matter the amount of time the person spent before (on the womb) and the way one would talk about being born prematurily is quite different)(you start counting one´s age from the day they are born). I know that you do know this and what I´m saying is nothing new or interesting, but I really think that, from the way he wrote it, people won´t misunderstand the joke and will understand that everybody gets born at a young age
@@Sjsxmkxo I'm aware of the joke; I liked his comment. I'm just pointing out an alternative interpretation of the statement, mentioning how being "born at a young age" might not necessarily be a "people dying when they are killed" statement.
@@SirYodaJedi well, so i can really say that i was born at a younger age than most people
