Today, I took an IQ test and ended up scoring above average. Feeling good about myself, I decided to bake some cookies. After 30 minutes of them not doing anything in the oven, I realized I forgot to turn the oven on. FML

Everyone makes dumb mistakes. Unfortunately, it was your turn.

Clearly you are of such supreme intelligence that the little things, such as turning the oven on, do not trouble you nor disturb your state of elevated thought. It's ok, your probably a genius.

Wow, did you check to make sure your pilot light wasn't out? That's a dumb way to die

52-Did you really jump to another thread to defend Doc? That's dedication right there. Fanboys everywhere should follow by your example.

What does your IQ have to do with forgetting to turn an oven on?

I'm trying to understand how getting a high IQ score makes you want to bake cookies...

Yeah. I could get 100% on a math test, but I still managed to hit my head on a doorframe I wasn't even walking through. It's quite possible to be smart, but stupid sometimes ;)

One of my friends used to say "Think about how dumb the average person is. Then remember that 50 per cent are even dumber than that."

That's the median, not the average.
You're assuming an even distribution, when it isn't the case.

Median is a type of average, I think that by "average" you mean the "mean", right?

81- mean and average are the same thing. Median, however, is not the same thing

Median is the middle number of a set of numbers that are lined up from the least to the greatest. Average, as was said before, is not the same thing.

It wasn't really dumb. A dumb mistake is more of the way I would word it. It's a careless mistake. It doesn't make OP unintelligent is all. Any person could have made the same mistake..

Yeah same here, usually doesn't take me 30 minutes to catch my mistake though :p

30 minutes is a long time! Usually, when you open the oven to put them in and it's cold.. That's a sign! IQ tests are not a measure of common sense though, are they?

It was just a mistake. It's not like you don't know 1+1. Hopefully.

Exactly. It's not like you can't figure out how to turn the oven on... IQ and forgetfulness or absent mindedness are 2 separate things... Quite a few geniuses are absent minded... Don't worry... I say bake those suckers now and celebrate... :)

Woohoo, the grammar Nazis are out to play.
I'm a dumbass anyway, i'm the guy who couldn't catch a typo despite watching the edit timer run down and assuring myself I had typed my message satisfactorily.

Since he's a man, he's not as skilled in the kitchen as us ladies. So this is understandable. xD
