Why yes, you CAN put a tomatoes in your fruit salad. It is a fruit after all.

“Kids aren’t going to eat a slice of pizza drenched in tomato sauce”

mmm, unironically sounds like me. According to my iq test i had PhD level intelligence at 18, and what am i doing at 24? unemployed, playing video games, and crying

It's alright, you can keep going for a bit, I'm about to hit 30 playing video-games and crying

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago

I'm 30. Almost have a PhD.

Also playing video games and crying

Wait until you're 40 talking about that IQ test like the Al Bundy of brains

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago

nah IQ tests are more or less bullshit, they're incredibly flawed and biased, only situation you'd see me talking about them at lenght is bashing the entire concept of trying to quantify general intelligence

Wisdom implys it has intelligence, it does not. It’s a word predictor.

They'll give it all the social interaction and wisdom scraped from YouTube clips.
