You could never get into an Ivy League School and it kills you. Dudes like you are sad. Get over it. Mensa my ass.

And I could give a fuck about your politics or anyone else's. It's just a bunch of clowns arguing to me. Please post what other thread I have ever posted on in this forum....Damn, you're so simple and easy to dominate. That's called Ivy League against a fake ass Mensa member. Check mate, BITCH!

It's Jesse Pinkman time!!! Considering that you can't prove you're an Ivy Leaguer and you can't prove that no one else here is, or is not, a Mensa member do you think it's wise to say Check mate?

I guess you've never heard of a little thing they send you in the mail after graduation called a diploma. It has your name on it. I guess you've also never heard of this new crazy invention called a drivers license that also has your name on it. And I never said that nobody here is a Mensa member, I'm just saying JL sure the fuck isn't. Nice try there though.

Uh-oh! Did Professor Barleycorn just hector someone on the wisdom of refraining from popping off with ridiculous statements? What a heaping helping of hypocrisy!

Professor, you're the dim-witted ignoramus who claimed that your test scores place you in the top 0.2 percent. That may be the most laughably ridiculous claim ever made in this forum.

Why not go ahead and boast that you're also a Fields Medal winner? That would be just as believable.

By the way, that was a nice little comedic nugget you served up in post #150 as well.

Please keep up the good work, professor!

If it is something you do daily, I'll pass . You have already proved you are last in your class.

Hey Lucas McFuckHead, I never said you didn't graduate from an Ivy league school!
You however, did say I was never a member of Mensa, which I was.
You want to bet 500,00 grand against me and I will be happy to prove it to you.
Of course, I don't expect your broke ass to have much money, so bet me however much above 10,000 you can produce.
I choose Dallas Love Field or the Dallas County Courthouse.
You just check mated yourself, dumbfuck.

Since when is being an Ivy Leaguer evidence of intelligence? I thought it was a sign of wealth, or being consumed by the pursuit of it, and a willingness to hobknob with older people who valued image over substance.

Check out statistics of the students who attend the Ivy League schools, such as average SAT scores, percentage of students who are National Merit Scholars, average class rankings, etc. The majority of the students rank at the top of almost any measure of intelligence. Are all the students at Ivy League schools at the top? Certainly not. Some students get in due to family history. Others get in because they offer the school something special, such as proficiency in sports. Certain prep schools (Exeter, Andover, Choate) have connections with the Ivy League schools.

I am not an ex-Ivy Leaguer but I do recognize how difficult it is to get into those schools, and others such as Stanford, MIT, Cal Tech, Duke, Chicago, and many others. These schools accept less than 5% of the applicants. And while a degree from these schools guarantees nothing, the degree opens doors that degrees from other schools simply do not.

So...is anyone willing to put their name out there to prove or disprove their claims? Considering the character of some of the people here, I'm not.

Professor, as long as you insist on continually referring to claims made in this forum while impugning the character of others, don't you think it might be appropriate for you to rescind the laughably ridiculous boast that your test scores placed you in the top 0.2 percent? Don't you consider lying a character flaw?
