Dawdling on average two hours a day since five years on a message board for discussing that Coe's dick is the biggest in running history is some wasting of energy in any way. But doing so with an IQ of 157?
Such an IQ should be used for more important subjects.
I doubt if I've averaged more than 10 minutes a day in 5 years. Some, like you, spend hours each day here just to insult others. That seems a waste even for a sub 90 IQ troll.
Curious I'm accused of 'wasting my time' fighting doping in running, on a running forum where I guess the average person spends 8 hours a week trying to improve their 5K time by 20 seconds, and those here who are elite are having their full time life choices rendered futile by dopers (unless of course, they are doping themselves).
For big parts of this time period, you have averaged definitely much more than 1 hour per day on letsrun.
You still think you're "fighting doping in running"? Defending "your" runners in any possible way and accusing any black runner of doping is not "fighting doping in running", it's just presenting your stupidity, hate and complexes.
If you really have such a high IQ (which I doubt heavily, since you're often not even able to write easy names correctly) as you claimed, all your nonsensical arguments would look even more ridiculous.

Even the smartest dog is still a f*cking moron. Same goes for humans. Even if it is possible to accurately measure intelligence (it isn't), having a high IQ doesn't mean you're smart; it just means you're slightly less of an idiot compared to the average person. A meaningless metric that only matters to eugenics freaks.
If the likes of Leonardo de Vinci, Socrates, Einstein, Beethoven were all morons, consider what that makes you.
Inconceivable!

He is busy snow shovelling, I hope.
I did the official Mensa test - which is two parts. Scored 161 on 1 of them, I think the other was 148 or something. The higher of the two is supposed to be taken as the score, because it apparently acknowledges the weighting of particular capabilities in written/visual/creative thinking as opposed to analytical/maths (or vice versa).
I did it, because 1) the university I was attending at the time was hosting sittings of the tests, and I was able to do it very cheaply, and 2) I kind of enjoy those types of 'aptitude tests' and was just curious.
Worth bearing in mind that 'form' on the day has a big effect - I was switched on, concentrating and being at university, was doing quite a bit of research etc so was in a fairly attentive state of mind. I don't think i could have repeated that score. On a 'bad day' your score is not going to be as good, or if you aren't concentrating. Supposedly you can't increase your 'score' but obviously your mindset on the day makes a difference as to your performance, same as anything.
After I got the score, I joined Mensa, signed in to the site/forum because thought there'd be interesting puzzles, etc - and quickly cancelled membership and left. If you think LR is bad, you've no idea. Forums on random stuff which the contributors have clearly no knowledge of at all - just because someone has a high IQ, doesn't make them self-aware. Nauseating stuff. Almost certainly by people who have went to a university that they think marks them as elite, have scraped membership, and fully intend to headline all CVs with this going forward.
I scored 85, but I took the test in a noisy cafe.

Why should I have it tested. Is it a type of virus?
The number of genius-level IQ's claimed here raises doubts about such claims: no one of that level of intelligence would find anything remotely useful about Letsrun.
Claiming a very high IQ is a bit like bragging about what you've got in your pants - we've only got your word for it. And no one ever admits to being average.

That was part of the test. You failed if you took it in the cafe.

Graduated high school early
Undergrad at Harvard

Was a prof at Cal Berkeley, but didn’t really like it
Moved to Montana.
Liked to tinker around and do some writing

You neglected to mention your move to Colorado
I've taken the Hoeflin Mega Test. I was happy with my score.
Perhaps for those here who claim to know their score, does it reflect what you have done with your life?

What are you looking for? I am a teacher, passing on my knowledge to the next generation.
The highest IQ person I've ever met matter-of-factly informed me that IQ tests are unable to effectively measure his IQ. He scoffed at the the idea of IQ anyway. A truly brilliant mind.
His parents had him join Mensa at a very young age. It's an institution he scorns.
The state felt it was necessary for him to complete the state's mandated physical education curriculum and requirements before providing him with a HS diploma.
He's on the spectrum, but was quite functional through his teen years. Unfortunately, he did not adjust well to college. He's been in the custody of a mental facility for awhile now.
