so so many, but one of the funniest, in retrospect of course, was when i went to meet a bisexual woman and straight guy couple at their apartment to hang out. After about 10 minutes of arriving, and I think immediately after the guy proudly said “I’m really good at art and shit..”, I physically cringed and started gritting my teeth, when visions of “redneck” and “white trash” danced through my head. I quickly devised a plan. Ooops! I had forgotten the wine in the car (which i did, thankfully) and excused myself to go down to retrieve it. First thwarting of plan: They both accompanied me downstairs and out of the building as they needed to key me back in (had planned to quietly drive away once out of the building). Plan B: Thankfully they waitied on the terrace while i walked to my car for the wine. Once at the car, I saw that i had also left my phone in the car. With clever thinking, I picked up the phone and hit buttons, and acted like i was listening to a voice mail. I returned to them and improvised the following: “So that was my neighbor. They left me a voicemail saying that they noticed that the dogs were out roaming around the neighborhood. There’s this hole in my backyard fence that i’ve been meaning to fix because I thought it looked like they could possibly squeeze through it, and was gonna fix it, but never got around to it. So they have the dogs back in the backyard, and are watching them but they said they can’t keep an eye on them too too long as they have plans. So I need to get home and take care of the dogs, god, and my roommates are in WV this weekend so i can’t call them. Sorry about that, yeah! I’ll definitely give you a call…”

An IQ measurement is “information”. If we agree that there ARE differences amongst “data,” “information,” and “knowledge”; and the relationships amongst them are that “data(s) are the building blocks of “information” when “data” combines with “context”, and that “information(s) are the building blocks of “knowledge” when “information” combines with “context” and these combinations our interpreted as meaningful relationships amongst information points, then a knowledge domain can be identified. So, an IQ matters, sure, but how much, to whom, how often, how much it brings success or failure to those with or without high IQ scores, can only be interpreted by the role it plays in a certain context. So, it depends. But if you don’t have a high one, I wouldn’t be too concerned about it.
