Today, my 11-year-old son and I took an IQ test for a laugh. To be honest, I've often suspected that I may have some form of mental retardation, but I didn't expect to get a score of 79, while he got one of 114. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I took a legitimate IQ test and got a score of 80. My parents both have IQ scores above Einstein’s. FML
Today, I took an online IQ test, even though I knew they give everyone unrealistically high scores. My score was 73. FML
Today, we got the IQ test results back, which show our daughter is on the high end of the genius scale. This confirms what my wife and I have long feared: our 6-year-old is FAR smarter than we are. No wonder she wins all the arguments we have. FML
Today, my husband, who is proud of his 155 IQ, is depressed our son is becoming a typical football jock with an IQ only just into the triple digits. He even thinks I must have had an affair, because no way could someone as smart as him have produced such a blockhead with tattoos. FML
Today, my dad took my son out of his will, so I confronted him. Turns out he has a new policy of “not rewarding dumb behaviour.” He’s willing to put him back in the will, if he ever scores over 120 on an IQ test. I love my son, but he’s a happy goldfish, 120 is just never happening. FML
Today, to settle a bet with a friend, I took an online IQ test twice. The first time, I chose answers at random without reading the questions. The second time, I took it for real. I got a higher score from the random selections than from my serious attempt. FML
Today, my son is smarter than average, almost genius level, and he has now reached an age where not only does he question me at every turn, he actually out-argues me 90% of the time and I can’t do anything about it because technically he’s right and I’m wrong. FML
Today, my 50-year-old dad was in a foul mood after taking an online test that put him in Slytherin house instead of Ravenclaw where he "belongs" because he's "so smart". FML
Today, my mom was taking an online IQ test. To the question "On which continent is Canada located?" she responded "Antarctica." If intelligence is genetic, I'm screwed. FML
Today, I asked my father if it was okay for me to take an ADHD test. He spent about 30 minutes yelling at as to why that is a dumb idea. I have asked multiple people who know me better than anyone else and they believe that I might have ADHD. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

At least OP can type well enough to look like they have graduated elementary school. OP, internet IQ tests are notoriously inconsistent and unreliable. You could take another one and probably get 120. Regardless, I hope you got a good laugh out of it

@#131 I knew somebody was gonna be too dumb to catch the irony. I wonder what your IQ score is...

IQ is age adjusted. He'd need to get less questions right to get the same score as you. He is not necessarily smarter than you!

You should go to Greenbough, Alabama!

If your IQ was really that low, you wouldn't be able to post an FML on the Internet. Goes to show it's a BS test.

Even if the test were legitimate, 79 is just below average/dull, not even any form of mental retardation, so OP would be able to post online. A friend of mine has an IQ in the mid sixties and checks this site regularly without any sort of assistance.

He's 11, he doesn't have as much stuff on his mind as you. Like how to pay the mortgage, car payment, electric bill, food etc... I know food is expensive in the UK

Okay so what if you scored low on a IQ test? That does not mean you are retarded. Many people scored higher than Einstein did, but that does not mean they are more intelligent than he is. There is a wide variet of iq test, so with that being said, you can score low on one and high on another.

My i.q is 156. It doesn't tell you who you are. That depends on your morality and kindness to others. I'm sure you're an amazing person, I.q doesn't matter.

Did u do an online test or an in real life test 156 is in the top 99.99% of people or so. Online ones r total bs but if it was in real life legit one you have about the same iq as Einstein and u are a total genius so congrats!

EQ tests are supposed to show intelligence better than IQ actually. At least in the "real world" aspect. While my IQ has always been above 130, last time I tested it was somewhere above 140. my EQ is rather low. I'm a highly functional sociopath. I'd much rather have an average score in both.
