The entirety of the sub can be summed up by the quote of “better to stay silent and have people think you’re an idiot than to open your mouth and prove them right.”

It'll never cease to amaze me when people think that IQ accurately measures someone's intellect. It basically is just pattern recognition and an ability to make a related conclusion. Which is a fucking tiny facet of one's brainpower. The fact it's the only personality point of these people is just that much more hilarious.

0:24 He genuinely did, as proven by googling the word. The only case of it I saw was in Urban dictionary, stating its "A made up word created by a redditor trying to insult someone. Featured on r/iamverysmart."

4:11 PSA: there is a concept in language called "slang", and words being shortened like that is in fact how language evolves and grows. "Do not" was shortened to "don't" through a similar, if not identical process to "I don't" or "I do not" getting shortened to "I'on". So what you are witnessing is the natural evolution of language and you are trying to stifle it. Great job OP

11:17 is just a proof involving Latin hypercube Sampling(LHS), but it’s kinda weird because LHS is used for getting a random sample in statistics but in the end he is cropping the edges of the sample, to a certain area. so I feel as that would add some bias, which is the very thing your trying to avoid. But idk, I cant see the top of the page, I only did about 10-15 min of research, and I didn’t look too hard. Love the 3 hour gift I’ve been given thx Emkay❤ TLDR: kinda suspect math, probably just trying to get math clout

0:19 After some digging I wholly believe that this guy is trying to write "insalubrious" which is just a fancy word for "unpleasant" but even this guy didn't know how to spell it

The best skill I learned in college is how to communicate difficult subjects to others without being a condescending prick. Using flowery language and terms that people aren’t familiar with just makes others think you’re stupid, even if you might have a good point. Don’t talk down to your audience. Work with them.

The fact that the smarter someone tries to look, the dumber they end up looking is truly astonishing to me. Edit: typo

CG is short for COMPUTER GRAPHICS . That's how I always understood it anyway. Which would make CG and cgi basically the same thing

I didn't realize that first guy can see into other realities with his high IQ!

8:25 did bro just call himself only as smart as a chimpanzee?

“Whats the point of intelligence, without kindness.”

I love how the guy at 8:33 essentially called himself a chimpanzee He obviously meant to say "What you are to a chimpanzee I am to you" but getting it backwards completely changed it I'm not trying to sound smart I'm explaining the Joke because I didn't catch it the first time myself

Here's the thing about IQ; it's not about WHAT you know, it's about HOW you know. It is a measurement of your ability to figure things out, not your ability to memorize a book researched and written by someone else. For example, if one believes they are a genius because they studied quantum physics, ask them to present what would be an ACTUAL display of their intelligence, which would be how many papers on the topic have they published in peer reviewed journals, and how many non-falsifying citations have each of those papers received...? In other words, a fisherman who has never spent a day in school could literal be a genius, and have proof of it by showing the fishing method and tools that they have come up with to successfully caught fish... That is what genius and IQ is... Additionally, all the IQ numbers everyone presents are just results from a commercial website that generates money through number of visitors, so the website intentionally asking easy questions in a way that presents them as a difficult question, with the intent to give the visitor a fictitiously high score, which will drive that use to ask their friends & family to also visit that same website to beat their score, and so on... It's a marketing trick...

hi i’m petitioning to put all emkay narrators in one video, this is day one

0:31 this is exactly the reason why my daycare put on classical music for us to fall asleep to during nap time. and i can confirm that i am the most idiotic person you'll ever meet in your entire life

Literally my intellectual peak was when is social studies class my teacher was talking about how there’s disagreement about when Rome actually fell, and when I asked “was the earlier date the 3rd century crisis?” He said “yes, how did you know that?” Because it hadn’t been taught yet, and it was because I watched the extra history 3rd century crisis videos multiple times. Nothing I could do could top that in my eyes. These people seem like they had a similar experience but instead of just going “oh cool I was right this is awesome” and then moving on they made it their whole personality.

I am in the 1% of IQ Bottom 1%

Claim your "who cares when you got here you're not special just watch the video" tickets here

I hate the people who think they're so god damn smart.. I ask an innocent question and they berate me

29:22 isn’t Spanish from Spain?

"Dark is for smart people, stranger things is for dumb people LOL" as someone who watched both, Dark is for insane people. That show was WILD.

These all sound like oblivion NPC's when the try to sound sophisticated

"Hi, I'd like to introduce myself, I'm the head of Who the Hell Asked incorporated."

29:23 Spanish is a European Language 🤣🤣

This motion picture was indubitably quite captivating

As someone with Asperger's I hate when people use a ton of big words to sound fancy and be snobby, when I use big words people think I'm doing that too but I use big words because I know them and they're fun + it's easier to get your point across

28:23 as a rick and morty fan I agree. only high IQ individuals can understand why a super-genius turning into a motherfucking pickle is funny

EmKay is great to watch while eating breakfast, Trust me I have an IQ of 69! I'm very smart.

58:38 didn’t expect stolas to start talking

The assistant pastor at my old church has an M.D. but when she explains things, it feels so natural and simple. I asked her about it once and she said "If you can't articulate your high level knowledge, there's not point in even being smart. Smarter people will think you're dumb for not knowing how to read a room and dumber people will just think you're a smartass." Throughout my life and academic career, I've kept these words in mind.

1:47 you would need a picture, since both brooch and broach do exist, and the provided context is not enough to decide which one is right...

8:19 I hope someone replied with just "farts" because any true intellectual knows fart jokes are top tier comedy and I just know this guy would get mad about it😭

My unwavering and unequivocal admiration, appreciation, and reverence for this particular audiovisual masterpiece are deeply rooted in its meticulously orchestrated and painstakingly crafted amalgamation of a diverse array of refined and sophisticated comedic methodologies, techniques, and elements, artfully intertwined, interwoven, and seamlessly integrated to captivate, engage, and immerse not only my cognitive faculties but also my emotional and spiritual sensibilities, thereby eliciting an authentic, ineffable, and profoundly gratifying sense of joy, contentment, and euphoria that transcends mere entertainment and resonates on a profoundly profound and existential level. That is to say, I like this video and find it funny

No more tickets, ran out.

3 and 1/2 hours of Emkay. I love this channel!

I'm perfect at being not perfect. My idiocy is too smart, it always outsmarts me. I want mashed potatoes.

4:05 hilarious.. utterly hilarious at how they thk this is a valid argument. 'ion' is AAVE and stems from the shortened pronunciation of 'i don't'. you could very well argue for the same reason that since the full phrase is 'do not', 'don't' just doesn't exist. english is ever evolving, and sub-dialects and whatnot are well known and understood by the people who speak it, which is, yanno.. the entire point of language. it doesnt make any of it more or less 'right' or 'wrong'.

36:00 I'm Atheist *and* Spiritual WHAT YA GONNA DO?

I have a single-digit IQ. I admit it.

[Insert smart talk here]

48:33 “what makes you special “ My autism lmao

1:19:51 the way jack said intellectually nearly made me do a spit-take

1:52:42 oh, you’re genuflecting while you plead? 😂

The people complaining about their about their classes not being difficult enough confuse me so much. I think when my classes get difficult I'll just give up tbh.

At 16:06 he used anthropomorphic wrong. It means human like, or having human qualities. Not whatever he’s using it for. I think he just found the word, thought it was cool, and prayed that he used it correctly

friendly reminder that intelligence is not the same across the board. say you're a chemist, and your friend is an astronomer. they're both sciences, and they're both difficult, but they each require their own expertise and knowledge. just because joe down the street is the next socrates doesn't mean that you're stupid or beneath him. don't compare yourself to other people. the only thing you have to be is yourself, no matter who that is.

200 IQ video

It is now my life goal to find and embarrass any of these "smart" people.

When asked for my job description, I generally just say "code monkey". I think that's pretty self-explanatory. Who cares if I work on code for NASA space ships, hospitals or some accountant's personal little accounting tool? I don't. "Code monkey" it is.

I hate when people use their iq as an excuse to say they’re smart at everything when that’s just not how it works, just because you have an above average iq doesn’t mean you are smart in every field, I have an iq of 138 and I’m behind a lot in math, and some other things, and thrive in others, just because you have an iq above average doesn’t mean you are soooo educated in everything. It’s just narcissistic and weird

I don't know why people who want to appear of "superior intellect" tout academia or academic work as a symbol of that. Mate, I'm 34 and I was a university academic for almost 8 years. Spending an hour with me would make it very apparent that I am not intellectually superior XD I'm just very knowledgeable about the specific topic I taught because I spent a lot of time studying and applying it. I wasn't born with that knowledge. In every other thing outside that one specific area of study, I am decidedly average lol. As are 99% of academics at the university level. Hence why we generally teach one very specific topic.

the subreddit of 🤓☝

I think my brain melted by hearing all this ego all at once.

Depression is when your brain doesnt make enough of the happy chemicals.

27:00 It's not that Python is the easiest language, but it is the single language that most people start with before learning other languages

I used to be like these people. I thought I was sooooo smart. I still think I'm smart, but not to this egotistical extent.

The response to "I don't even see how your mental illness is even a thing" is "I suspect there are a great many things that fall outside of your understanding but that doesn't make them not exist anymore."

8:24 they even got the logic backwards. They basically just said “I have the intellectual capacity of a chimpanzee” lol

11:27 i'm not perfect at math but i don't think that of you only have variables and not constants, you can ??make up the answer thus making it invalid?? (please oh please correct me if i'm wrong) Edit: CORRECT! :D

I think most of Eastern Europe can relate to learning English from TV rather than from school

8:24 but, if I’m no smarter than a chimpanzee… then, you’re no smarter than me, and you’re no smarter than a chimpanzee.

greetings humans i am a superiror intelligent being off magnificient quantiriestes of intellignece and i finde this intellectul form of media immensely entertaing seeng intellctuals such as mysefl

*the first one is even more ironic considering both those parties are bad, almost equally so*

6:25 im assuming this guy means basic integration (because if you’ve seen proper integration, noone is doing that in their head with no paper to at least write some thoughts on.) which is also, really easy to do in your head. The trickiest part is just remembering separate answers at most.

this program precured on the online video posting platform youtube was quite the captivating viewing experience! bravo!

I’m going to laugh at the person who said it was 1, since 1 + 2 = 3, 6 divided by 2 is 3, nothing in the space between brackets and numbers means to multiply, 3 x 3 is 9, I can’t see how tf you would get 1 even with the simplest of math

these dudes are literally just Redd White from ace attorney.

17:37 GENUINELY MADE ME LAUGH”yikes Walmart fight parking lot”

why is it that people who feel the need to prove & flaunt their intelligence latch on to physics with the force of 1000 suns?

I have average IQ for a thirteen year old I’m in the middle bad at some classes good at others, I’m not above anyone, I am equal to my classmates Edit: I’m not calling myself smart or dumb, I’m average with my classmates (before anyone says anything).

IQ means nothing. I've got 115 and i'm still stupid. IQ is just how easy it is for you to recognise patterns. It doesn't measure intelligence.

Nah because this is mostly just Damien talking like a british tourist

1:14 i dont know about that one cheif

Source: I Made it up

My dude said he could easily calculate the valence electrons in a nucleus . if you have any sort of periodic table it will tell you the number of valence electrons in the group name

fun drinking game: take a shot every time theres an "and everyone clapped" sorta post

This whole video had me going "wah wah wah I don't wanna f'n hear it!"

It’s insanely hilarious to me that these peasants with such low intelligence queries have the absolute audacity to try to prove to other mortal beings how smart they are with no intelligence whatsoever. Such magnificent work, Emkay, keep up the outstanding efforts!

15:14 actually violin performances on tv do actually tend to suck, but not in the way this “genius” means/thinks. There are multiple cases (though most are found in fiction shows) of actors just trying to imitate what they *think* a violinist would be doing when playing a piece, which, when an actor doesn’t play violin, ends up just being hilariously incorrect. I think two set violin made videos reacting to examples of this if you want a more professional opinion on this stuff

Guy at 1:00 thought the guy he was replying to said they'd be a source of 'irony' rather than the metal, iron.

Sometimes I see things on here that I actually think about (the main one I noticed was the deja vu one) on videos on this subreddit and I worry that I'm like those people. I don't think I do it, but I worry. Even on this comment, I'm super worried that I sound pretentious

I hate that I do or did some of these 💀😭

0:01 I'm not Murican, but through American family I know for a fact that Colorado is quite liberal 💙

python is literally the most simplified level of programming by far lmao

6:20 I think this is the first time I've seen someone brag about calculating valence electrons. It's literally high school knowledge. Not to mention the fact that he was completely wrong lol

Not believing or defending the "very smart" people in these posts, but the I got an A writing 80 pages for an assignment that was supposed to be 100 could theoretically have achieved that. In many parts of the world, a post secondary A range starts at 80%. If they weren't specifically penalized for turning in a technically incomplete paper and the 80% of the paper turned in was perfect... Edit- A 4.2 GPA is possible at institutions that use the 4.33 scale instead of 4.0. It'd be the same as claiming to be the smarted with a 3.8, though.

Yay

17:54 The irony of this one is that even in relation to the rest of the solar system, the sun isn’t completely stationary either. It sort of wobbles in place a bit in addition to its rotation.

When my mom moved to Germany because of her job she watched sesame Street to learn the language. It makes sense that you can learn a language through shows but if it isn’t a kids show idk how you would

In case you were wondering, the reason calculators handle this equation ( 1:17 for context) like that is because modern calculators fill the blank space in between equations with a Cdot with denotes multiplication, AKA The calculator solves for 3 x 3, which is 9. What I cannot answer however, is how they got 1 from the equation, or how brackets would help in finding the answer.

"How about learning a European language like German instead of appropriating the culture of minorities." A European language... Sir may I introduce to you the country of Spain!

i love how many of these children dont realize that eating a thesaurus just makes them sound pompous af.

27:59 Terflop is like terabyte but for processing things per second. I hope that explanation made sense to someone :p.

3:22 while cgi stands for “computer generated images”, CG stands for “computer graphics” and encompasses 2d and 3d art made on a computer.

14:32 that was the most obnoxious drawn out way of telling someone to kill themselves lol

1:39:57 this one sounds like undiagnosed ADHD and they are self-medicating with caffeine… they literally said “I took a stimulant and could focus” 😂 I hope they get diagnosed soon and also learn to be a bit less full of themself 😅

5:44 This is something I would do, but I would be too lazy to read the question

I'll put it to ya like my college professor told me; "An I.Q. test is a great measure of someone's ability to take an I.Q. test, and not much else." Keep in mind; most of these boys are just kids. They'll learn a lot more as they grow up, so, try not to be too hard on them.

As a wise man once said, the opposite of wisdom is not the lack of it, but the illusion of it.
