    My membership in the Douchebag Club forbids me from taking a Mensa test. I'd fail miserably anyhow. I'm definitely not intelligent enough to belong to a club whose members need to prove to the world how intelligent they are.

    You could join if you wanted to, Ragu.

    Indeed.

    I was invited to join, also thanks to SAT score. Went to one meeting, and it was more or less as Ragu described it - some okay people there, but they were outnumbered by the ones who needed to prove they were the smartest guy in the room. Haven't been back.

    29 out of 30. Freaking question No. 7 -- completely stumped me.

    There are worse ways to spend a lunch break.

    In the 1980s I had a girlfriend who was between jobs. She started delivering for Dominos. She and the other female delivery people were never allowed to deliver to certain addresses because those apartments were inhabited by Navy wives whose husbands were away for six months. The male delivery people always took those runs. Apparently certain households consistently wanted "extra toppings" or something like that.

    Maybe some of those women home alone wanted some anchovies.

    Two words you won't see mentioned together very often: Mensa and porn.

    Probably see them more often than Mensa and intercourse.

    I got 26. I've always been a good test taker.

    Missed on insatiable, the one with the months, the word jumble, and the one with the squares.

    I think I did an IQ test off a thread from here once, and I got a 139. My friend did it too, and got 137 and wasn't happy to be behind me.

    What SAT score do you have to get to get in (not that I'd want to join).
