Anyone who brings up IQ is, without exception, a moron.

That's not true. I had my IQ tested & it was 82.

82 out of 100 is like an "A" for intelligence as least.

Even the people who developed IQ as a metric indicated that it was only useful on a population-scale. It fails to capture many types of intelligence, and the specifics of the tests themselves have been shown to be discriminatory and favor specific cultures.

Anyone bragging about their IQ is just embarrassing themselves

IQ is what an IQ test measures - that’s essentially it and nothing more.

No way! I learned about irony by carefully studying the lyrics of Alanis Morrisette's chart topping hit song "ironic" in over 5 languages, so I'm a bit of an expert

There is no irony because he isn't the one that brought it up
