Half of the US population is of below average intelligence. I'd never
seen Bove as a member of the "upper crust".

Furthermore, the minimum accepted score on the Stanford€“Binet for
membership in Mensa is 132.

I like to use my own system of intelligence: Smart people talk about ideas and concepts, average people talk about "things", stupid people talk about other people.

This also works for rating emotional intelligence. Some of the posters here have the emotional intelligence of a 12 year old. It's quite an interesting thing to witness.

I like to discuss the concept of "other people".

Let's be stupid and talk about Eleanor Roosevelt.

As you wish. Does anybody know what her bra size was? I'll bet it was a fairly decent size. She had Rachel Ray beaver teeth - ugh! At least RR is perky. I'll have to give you that.

Doubtful. It never looked like much in those dresses of the 20's, 30's and
40's.

No, Eleanor did not have pretty choppers but her false teeth looked better.

You're absolutely right about her rack. I guess it's because she reminds me of my granny. Funny how the mind plays tricks like that.

Not verified by my quick google search. I first heard the expression in
the sixties, so it was before that. I'd love to actually know who said
it first. Talking any one of the three all day would be boring to me.

Nobody seems to know who said it first. Still, dsi1 presents it as his
own, which it certainly is not.

I did not come up with this nor would I claim to have originated it. That would be untruthful. As we all know, I only tell the truth. The way I figured it, all ya'alls would be familiar with this little truth. My guess is that you all might have heard it before, you just don't understand/believe it.

I am not discounting the possibility that her claim is based on one of
those click bait FaceBook IQ tests where they suck you in to try a test
claiming that 90% of people cannot answer more than 4 of the questions.

You've seen those, too?? I've not seen them on FB but have seen them on the
internet; "clickbait."

Yep. I fell for them a few times. I'd do the test and think that only
someone at the far left of the bell curve would not ace it.
