The pattern recognition skills demonstrates the ability of your neural circuitry to integrate one form of raw input which could also correlate with other features that may define you as a genius. I agree its far fetched to say someone is a genius just that he knows whether to place a circle or a triangle etc.
IMO being genius is all about having better neural performance that skews the normal distribution in the population. That being said you can be a genius in a given sport since you have the capability and motor skills to perform a vastly complex physical performance.
Or it may be maths, writing, drawing or just making genius posts on a drug forum.

This is a very good explanation. The most important thing is to utilize your talents in a positive way. How positivly you contribute to humanity is what counts when its all said and done.

honestly, i guess yeah, he is a real smart guy (and yes, you could get onto the philosophical topic that im not getting into... 'what is smart ?', which has manny perspectives). but then again, i mean shit... he is able to possess and maintain large amounts of random (and for the 'MOST' part) useless information (often about drugs) that the common person does not know. so in the fact that coaster does have a large capacity to maintain information im sure he could pass as being a genius in surtent aspects. Now would i take his advice on how to personally go about my life... probably not. Though he does seem to enjoy life, the most vitals of all vitals, so that right there takes some i.q. and is something i believe some others should go about doing, good for the soul and plenty of
so i guess people should really start asking themselves: should i take advice from a genius? P.S. when i say 'enjoy life as being vital' i also want to state in my opinion part of enjoying is giving back, to view and live both sides of the spectrum live in yin and yang brah...ommmmmm......
