"You're not stupid, your brain just hates thinking!" Well...thanks?
-
so, we're still dumb

I think we shouldn't only do IQ tests but instead a test that poses questions from multiple categories, like the video already mentioned. I, personally am very bad at maths but I know myself very well and am very empathetic. Also I love being creative and can learn languages rather fast. My point is, just because someone might not do that great on a logic based IQ test, does not mean that someone is stupid. It just means people have different types of intelligence.

I have ADHD, so while I always score really well on some parts of IQ tests (logic, problem solving, spatial awareness etc), I do terribly badly on others. If a question requires working memory above a certain threshold, failure is pretty much guaranteed.

“I’m not stupid, I’m just a cognitive miser...”

I've never had someone make me feel smart and dumb in one video.

I have a daughter who is incredibly intelligent, but for the longest time, didn't have a shred of common sense. Happily, in her 40's, she's starting to grow into some wisdom.

Man i had to think about why i got that bat and ball question wrong for a while. I had to think of it instead as, "the combo must equal 1.10" instead of "the bat is 1 dollar more". Shifting perspectives on problems helps a lot to solve strange things like this which also should call out an obvious thing, Interpretation and Wording is key in all problems.

this video: you're dumb me: always have been.
-
"So am I stupid?" "Well yes but actually yes"
-
I got the answer right 😂😂.. and all your predictions afterwards are right!😂
-
Damn, getting that answer correct is the loneliest I’ve felt in my adult life thus far 😢😅

"You're not stupid, your brain just hates thinking" That's just being stupid with extra steps

i solved it correctly ; but by bring the problem into an equation; when : x is the bat and y is the ball so x=y+1$ then x+y=1.10$ means that (y+1$)+y=1.10$ so y+1$+y=1.10$ 2y+1$=1.10$ so 2y=1.10$-1$ 2y=0.10$ y=0.10$\2 y=0.05$ therefore x=0.05$+1$=1.05$ and we can check out the answer by replacing the variables with them values : 1.05$+0.05$=1.10$

Me an asian who doesn't understand how American currency works: damn I'm poor as fuck.
-
So there’s a difference between actual stupidity and unawareness. Unawareness is making a mistake. Stupidity is confidently making a mistake.
-
"How much does the ball cost?" Me: I don't know, but I know that .10 cents is a trap. lmao
-
As an intelligent person who does stupid things I haven't seen this video but see it as an absolute win

I was tested every year for a learning disability when I was in public school and passed everytime with ease but no one could figure why I was doing so bad in school. I think it just came down to it not appealing to me.
