scribbling yet another bell-curve
he might have been dismayed that he wasnt drawing it upsidedown but they were sitting side by side as opposed
to usual seats across from each other
he struck a median line down from
the nipplethe tippytop drew it down to
the X-axis That’s intelligence, the
Y-axis denotes population.
The median connotes the IQ
quotient of one hundred, the population mean.
he printed 100
Which population
Worldwide population.
I gotta dispute that
Show me the bell-curve of Comptonmuch abused Inner City of Chicago or Detroit show me the gated communitiesthe compounds that have their own police force Bel-Air Show me those
For simplicity’s sake, let’s
agree this is representative worldwide.
I cant
Show me the axes and curve for Palestinians
in apartheid Israel the supposition that
the mean is a hunred is audacious But
it serves your purpose correct
It serves my purpose.
As long as you admit it
I’m not admitting that, I’m sharing
what people who know, the experts, have learned. This is their representation.
Name me one expert
I can’t, however they’re experts.
Weak man but as long as youve admitted it serves your
purpose lets continue for the sake of
argume . .
. . Which you’re always up for.
I am hellyah When anyone runs their mouth without
identifying who they is experts are yare gonna get my attention my ire An don lean on Trust me I don trust anyone
Youll
recall Just the facts, ma’am, just the facts. Im Joe Friday every day of the
week anya know that so don get irritated with me Ya know Ill call ya out
Are you done?
Im done until you irritate me
again
The g-factor, s.d., is approximately
sixteen points on the X-axis.
Jesus Irritated G-factor s. d. Wha the fuck ya talkin about
G-factor, general intelligence
factor, s. d., standard deviation, which is understood . .
. . Not by me
Which is understood, if you’d
hear me out.
Where do you find this shit
It comes up on my cellphone.
IQ tests come up on your
phone an you take them
It’s right there, if I’m unoccupied
at the momen . .
.
. Your devise beckons it has learnedits algorithms have learned by your handyer involvement that yare susceptible Your devise is gaming you
I’m interested in my IQ . .
.
. Because it swings wildly aboutsometimes yare intelligent sometimes yare not
No. his eyes brightened Because
I’m curious.
Donmake me laugh thats not
curious Seems more likely ya can be led around
by the nose duped are compulsive or possibly a tad maniacal
Thats not curious
You’re being judgey.
Stop were offpoint Back to your defense G-factor s. d.
Lose your place in line
Standard deviation which is
understood wha
he cleared his throat asif he hadnt
Understood to be sixteen points.
Per the s. d., the medium, onehundred, one standard deviation, s. d., along the
X-axis, intelligence increasing, is onehundredsixteen; those less fortunate, by
one s.d., fall to eightyfour . .
. . Like bottom line for military service and cops
I don’t know that.
I doneither though I wouldnt be surprised Lotsa cops come out of the military To our dismaymy bitter dismay their trainingtheir mindset is
to kill They wont be peace officers More likely have an occupation force mentality Ya don de-escalation pointing a gun at someone An dondare question them their understanding
is your immediate submission
For once
they get to give orders
I don’t know that.
Now you do Consider yourself enlightened
Yaknow for all your G-factor
s.d. axes bell-curves you probably missed your calling Yacould have beenyears ago a sensational
eugenicist yacould have been up to your wrists
and elbows in womens bodies sterilising them Snipsnip here an a snipsnip there neutering men Paladin Have Icepick Will Travel
Richard Boone-y lobotomies
Nothing
My point, if you can listen, was going to be about
people who are two standard deviations above the median. Imagine.
Onehundredthirtytwo, which according to Mensa represents only two percent of the
population.
Think of that!
What would someone of that intelligence have to say to you or me that we’d
understand or we might say to them that they already didn’t know.
he made his point
he was terribly pleased with
himself
Jesus Mensa
I hear MensaI know what it is an I hear Oy vey Such a mensch
However
someone of integrity or who is honourable isnt necessarily smart IQ smart Their street smart might crush your intellectual An I cant help but immediately think of the stenciled
tshirt mister missus or miss Onehunredthirtytwo is wearing
Are you gonna say?
Thought youd never ask
Excuse
me the pen please
he was hesitant to give up the
pen
Ill give back he had to slip it out of his hand
he wrote on
the pageclutched in a clipboard beneath the elaborate bell-curve and indexing
finishing he handed the pen and
paper back to him he circled his remark
because the eugenicist didnt watch him write
he read it to himself
DONT TALK TO ME
YOUR WORDS MEAN NOTHING
