This one time I saw an e-meter and it was cool because it smiled at me.

**s9ann0** · 02-05-2007, 01:45 AM

their tests are pretty tricky actually especially after a few beers

Not sure why people like to prove they're clever tbh.

Well, I see the point in maybe taking the test, but not being part of a little elite group.

But good luck/congrats on passing the test.

**ae-sc** · 02-05-2007, 04:56 AM

wow, go for it

**DaddyHalbucks** · 02-05-2007, 05:00 AM

You don't become a 'Mensa' --you become a 'Mensan.'

It's a mixed bag, a lot good people, but some real oddballs too.

nerdy chicks are hot...go for it

The proving part is mainly curiosity (or in my case, my mother's, since she had me take the test when I was in my teens). As to the "elite", 2% isn't particularly elite (or little) when you translate it into world population...

If you were to check out the cross-section of those who belong to Mensa (although most never attend any functions), it's a mix of people of every age, class and occupation. Most of us gravitate towards groups of one kind or another, whether just loose social groups or ones which are more formally organized, so nothing different there either.

So you are saying that the answer is "7" ?

Yeah, it's no joke.

**LiveDose** · 02-05-2007, 07:55 AM

Knock yourself out. Nothing wrong with finding new challenges...

**RawAlex** · 02-05-2007, 08:32 AM

Maybe you can give Asia a lift to the meetings...

**seeric** · 02-05-2007, 08:34 AM

**Agent 488** · 02-05-2007, 08:35 AM

My ex-husband was a MENSA member. Didn't have an ounce of common sense. Also scored an almost perfect 1600 on his SATs. Perfect on Math but missed by 10 points on English. Was making 6 figures at year at 23 and bouncing checks while his paychecks were sitting on the counter, lol.
