Re: British schools.... [Re: monoamine]

So your having a slow day as well? Too bad.

The 8/10 comes from you saying they're measuring in fractions. Perhaps less drugs are in order for you since you don't seem able to remember what you wrote from 1 post to the next. And I didn't give an exact number because I've had four tests during my life, all within a point or two, which would you have me pick?

Quote:
So I took "about" as meaning a fraction.


I can't be responsible for your lack of thought.

Ah qqualudes, haven't had one since the 70's. I miss them.


Quote:
I was pointing out how something so complex could not be measured by a single test and applied in any kind of sane manner.



I agree, hence the "so what" in my post. You're a perfect example of what a waste they are.


Quote:
Maybe you should have dropped out?

Sorry but from the quality of your posts, it's obvious I made the right decision.

Having been out of high school for more than a few years, in hindsight I think....
1. ALL schools should require uniforms so as to eliminate one source of friction and distraction.
2. Kids in school would do well to stay away from drugs.
3. Kids shouldn't be molded into anything by the gaggle of left wing teachers we suffer fromtoday. Neither should the few right wing teachers mold kids into anything. 


I agree.  Should I be afraid that we hold the same opinions here or should you be?  :lol:

Most. One after. The numbers didn't change in a measurable amount.

So much for both that attempted insult and the "this is your brain on drugs" commercial.

I still don't see where the 8/10 comes in when you said "about 8 points". What the fuck is about 8 points? You get an exact score. About 8 could be 7.454655.An if you averaged them beforehand,I apoligize for my lack of psychic ability.

Quote:

So essentially what you're saying is that standardized tests only apply when you want them to.

Perhaps you are a hypocrite.

Don't you have a job? You spew all this " I hate people lazy people who suck on taxpayers teat" shit and you're on the Shroomery like 24/7. If all you do is post at work,I think that speaks volumes about the ineffeciency of the American capitalist system.

I'll type slowly so you can follow, let me know if I'm going to fast.

I said about 8 points because no two tests came out to the exact same number. They ranged from 150 to 154. Rather than claim the high score I averaged them. Need I define about for you? Somehow, now that you've had your little twist, I suspect not.

I said "about 8 points."
You said "they measure in fractions now"
Since 8 points is "8" (are you following?), and you said "fractions", the logical assumption was that you took 8 points as .8.
Unless you can explain to me how 8 is a fraction?


Quote:

You should stop guessing as you seem to really suck at it. Standardized tests as a measure of what you were taught, I have no problem with. IQ tests I think are basically a waste. They don't factor in sense, as is shown by your score.


Quote:
Perhaps you are a hypocrite.


If that makes you feel better about yourself, fine.

Maybe if you ventured outside this forum and perhaps visited ODD or did your own research,you would know that there is a mountain of credible scientific evidence that chronic use of cocaine can cause permanent damage to dopaminergic neurons and may rewire the brain's "pleasure pathways". This is not some NIDA/Partnership For A Drug Free America propaganda.

Actually I'm self employeed and semi-retired. I own my own business and have good people working for me. I have never taken a check from the taxpayers. The only volumes being spoken here are your feeble attempts at insults. Work hard and when you grow up maybe you'll do as well.

Apparently you dropped out of school before learning the 24/7 means 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
I doubt you'd be able to find a post from me after midnight and before 5am.

Golly Gosh! Who knows what my IQ could have been.

Oh woe is me...... if only I had never touched that foul substance!

:lol:  You sure are an excitable lil' fella today.  :lol:

Tell you what, if it makes you feel better about yourself, we can pretend my IQ is lower than yours. I'll still say so what.

That's essentially what I said orginally. I personally don't give a flying fuck about your's or anyone else's IQ.

Since your forte seems to be nitpicking and being an egotistical asshole,I'm just giving you a taste of your own medicine.

This has nothing to do with IQ. People can sustaine massive brain damage and even head trama and still test with a high verbal IQ.
It still doesn't rule out the possiblity of permanent alteration of the brain and thus the mind. If you want to overlook all the readily available scientific evidence,go right ahead.

Maybe you're such a dick because some of those limbic dopamine neurons just aren't firing like they used to.

19 hours is not like 24 hours. Perhaps you missed the how to tell time lesson as well.

While that seems surprisingly like a flame, I'll merely tell you what my father called me once.

He told me, and I've still never recovered from the blow.... an egotistical arrogant young prick. Oh how the tears flowed.  :lol:

I'm not overlooking anything. Perhaps you're assuming everyone reacts the same way?

Perhaps, but what's more likely is that you're being a jackass because.... well because your are one.    :smirk:
