why do british people join mensa?

it exists in north america, but almost no one joins it regardless of qualification

it's considered an incredibly narcissistic thing to do

[tonypappagiorgio]

Yeah I know; me mate joined so I took the test just to piss him off... I was well hungover as well, almost didn't go... Ah well. Job done!!

He's also aware of the stigma of joining, and is currently trying to change things so it's seen more as a social club, and not an elitist cult (still, the membership magazine is reaaallly boring)

I've done it again!! Sorry iMac, meant to Reply and hit bloody remove!! I spose I am a bit of a spanner for that. Please feel free to repost.

However, picking up on a couple of points:

Many schools in the UK still use an arbitrary number system - I never attended a year 4/5/6 until I reached 4th form and GCSE - before that it was 1st - 3rd Form and Lower/Upper Remove. Plus you may find that popularity of the show has informed people how old a 5th grader is.

this is fake

[tonypappagiorgio]

And BTW: twat. Of course I was on it, and Mark Burnett productions sold the rights to Sky One in the UK to make the gameshow, which I applied for. Obviously most of the UK doesn't know what a 5th grader is (in the same way you Yanks don't realise you can travel outside the US) so its format was retooled for the UK - hence 10 year old. Fuck it, i'll take my Andy Warhol.... well 4x Andy Warhol, it being an hour...

jealous??

@Ironzealot7531 it is originally a British institution

[dimgwalltameiben]

@Steve7508 Oh don't be so bloody stupid recently they had "grillo", cricket in Spanish. I didn t know it and i have that subject at A level

[Steve7508]

@dimgwalltameiben They're more intelligent than average - probably privately educated. The quesions aren't impossibly difficult, so I don't think they would need to cheat by giving them the answers.

[dimgwalltameiben]

I watch this with my year 8 daughter who's in top sets for everything and she knows hardly any answers and these kids know more then most ppl who've been to university, they've so obviously been given the answers beforehand

[chelseaaa123XD]
