    I’ve got an IQ of ninety-six, which is good enough for me. It’s pretty high, just four points off the maximum.

      It’s funny, because you literally never see people mention that they’re within a standard deviation of the average, even though that’s supposed to be 70% of the people who take the test.

      Everyone’s either bragging about their 140 IQ or accusing someone else of being “room temperature”. Nobody seems to understand 96 is normal human intelligence and normal humans are - by and large - smart enough to get the job done.
