Here's the problem, Rival, when people come on here and show signs of intelligence, or even genius, they have to be held to higher standards. Apparently, you consider yourself in that select group, so I'm going to believe you.
And any so-called genius that can't spell RECEIVE correctly doesn't deserve such rewards. So, come on, give all those stars and flags back.
Now. Right now.
We're waiting.
I have never ONCE claimed in this thread that I am a so-called genius.
The ONLY time that EVER happened I was at the Mensa testing facility (and I was justified) because
(as I pointed out) my number two pencil-lead had broken off "mid-test" and also, I had accidentally
spilled orange juice on the test booklet making it hard to read.
I believe I made a very strong argument as to how those two things happening to anyone could have
easily skewed the test results to reflect that their IQ was 26 points below what was required for
admission, BUT NO, the lady wanted to argue...
I don't consider it MY FAULT that she was clearly wrong, and I still resent the six months of
anger management (and the pepper-spraying) that I was subjected to as a result of
that fiasco...WHICH SHE CAUSED!
As for the spelling error, I take no responsibility, it was actually my assistant who typed up
the headline of my post. But thanks for bringing it to my attention, I assure you I will take the
proper steps make sure it doesn't happen again.

No wonder I forgot about that! Now I vaguely remember.
This thread is an official shrine to the fact that all of our posts (the collective) are like tasty oven-roasted nuggets of divinity.
The people that have visited this thread thinking they can stop this freight train of unrecognized genius are totally deluded. All your thread belong to us.
Also, please remember to close the refrigerator, you (or me, or Rival) left it open last night and the cheese was a bit warm.
