Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
you may be stymied for a really long time because you can come up with lots of different possible solutions.
This is sort of why I did so horribly in the probability&stats portion of my physics education. It wasn't intelligence that worked to my disadvantage, though, more just the seriously overdeveloped case of what-if-itis. Everybody else was like oooh, use this equation while I was mentally flipping my 43rd penny or something.
I have no idea what the hell that game or whatever is talking about, but what I do know is that I'm not much inclined to try.
Dude, being good at trivia totally makes you smart. And a millionaire if you play your cards right with Alex Trebek. Quit stomping on my Jeopardy dreams, man.
There's some anecdote Bob points to all the time, about how someone really smart-- Feynman, maybe-- scored rather low on an IQ test, and people theorized it was because he could make even "wrong" answers work.
They sometimes have these banner ads at the NYT that are very much like questions to an IQ test. One they have is where there is 4 different numbers and you're supposed to pick the one that doesn't belong. I managed to make a case for each posiblilty.

Um, being rich doesn't make you smart, either. Nor vice versa. I'm just saying.
Now I have to get my learn on.
I did get it, thanks to ita and her whitefont. But I'm not sure how long it would have taken if not for that. It might just never have occurred to me. What does that mean?

I really don't think it means anything.
Or maybe it means that the stupid puzzle annoyed me, so I read the whitefonts (as I wanted to know the answer before I left work).

That you're a naive and trusting soul (like me). Nothing to be ashamed of.

Just little jokes. I know neither trivia knowledge nor riches = intelligence. Just funning on the fact that I always feel a little bit smarter when I watch Jeopardy and know the answers, especially during these "Ultimate Champions Challenge" days.
I am going to eat some chocolate chip cookies and drink coffee. Now that's the true key to intelligence.
eta: Shiny number!
Okay, if it's all about the title of the game, shouldn't it be petals around the roseS? Lame.
