    Again, being 'book smart' doesn't mean you are intelligent. Having a college degree doesn't mean someone is intelligent. Not going to college doesn't mean someone isn't intelligent likewise. You'll learn that sooner or later I hope, because you obviously didn't get grasp this from your 'school.'
    This is 100% true

    But if you can't read for yourself, you rely on other people for information and the further from the source the worse it gets like the telephone game. I can't consider anyone intelligent if they can't read a simple paragraph

Of course you cant generalise the entire graduate population as any one thing - whether it's intelligent or unintelligent. The fact that you feel the need to point out something so obvious or inconsequential is indication that you have insecurities here.
      You can think what you want. I pointed it out because he kept on with baseless arguments, totally missing the point of what I was saying in posts way before the one you read. That's why I said 'AGAIN' in the beginning of that paragraph.

        Yes, he's an overweight male of Filipino descent in his early 50s. He hates Floyd with a passion. Floyd's inability to read has probably made his August.

I dont expect floyd to read postgraduate dissertations, but **** at least say "higher" without ****ing up and pronounce your name right.
            So you really think that him screwing up his name relates to his reading ability? It couldn't have anything to do with nerves, huh? And whose acceptance of his reading or reciting abilities do you think he gives a **** about? Yours? Now look what you've gone and done; you've got me arguing for Floyd, when I couldn't really give a ****!

              To be honest, I think people have kinda just exaggerated this whole thing.. Floyd might not be the sharpest tool in the box, but he's known for stuttering and having a bit of a speech impediment.. He's obviously not a fluid reader, but if you have a speech impediment it can mislead people into jumping into harsh conclusions about his reading ability..

              And even if he is dyslexic or is not the sharpest tool in the box, I think it's rather harsh to abuse him like this, a lot of people do this after someone makes a statement that makes them look 'dumb' like that Miss America quiz show scenario, where people gave her chit because she wasn't very bright, you kinda get the impression that there are a lot of insecure people who project their own insecurities regarding their intelligence onto other people.

              I'm going off on a bit of a tangent here but seeing as intelligence is a largely genetic trait, I think it's rather harsh to put him down about it, it's the equivalent to teasing people with down syndrome, ugly people etc... basically anyone with a genetic defect that is out of their control.

                Can't argue with that. That's fair game and logical.

                    No way, is that really you Booty Dew? Or did someone hack into your account?
