Do you strike yourself as intelligent?

Why did I pick Moon Cook? I simply thought it was more likely that I'd be wanted upon the Moon than upon Mars. Mars is looking for researchers not cooks, but someone might build a moon base that needs a cook. Now...that could change. The plan is to put a million people onto Mars, and then they will need cooks. And cooking will have to reinvented there, so whoever is the first Cook of Mars™ will change the course of cooking for a very long time. Whatever they write in the first Martian Cookbook will be read for at least a 100 years.

That's all new info to me that I never thought of in the 34 years of my life. So, I rated your post winner, for what it's worth. But I bet you receive lots of those!

At school i was written off as thick and uneducable. From 14 i caught up, went to college, went to university 5 times. Had my iq tested 3 times, its the same as my weight in pounds
Because of my childhood problems there is a lot of basic stuff I don't know. But i manage OK

A low potential high achiever?
At least you finally got "university" right after 5 tries.
Got it right all 5 times.
Most qualified low potential high achiever this side of our front door

Do you strike yourself as being an intelligent person?
My IQ test results and GED were taken in Pine Hills Youth correctional facility, and were above average! A lot of people I meet in real life have said I am very intelligent (with poor judgement and impulsivity). Also, in a typing class, I got more words per minute, better score than anyone else in the class!
A lot of people online tell me I'm an idiot and a dip ****!
Most of the comments I get in real life are that I am very intelligent though.
But this is about you! I honestly don't remember what my IQ results or GED results were and don't care, as I don't consider those to be a good indication of how intelligent a person is. I was just told that it was above what the average person scores, which is remarkable, beings that I was kicked out of school for lighting my notebook on fire during class, and other stupid behaviors, so most of what I know is self educated!
And I can wax like a professor on stuff related to History or Religion. When it comes to mathematics I'm extremely stupid, and wanted to commit suicide trying to learn the last stages of Algebra for an LPN license. Even as a a certified nurses aid, I was the only dewd in the class, and they said I didn't make the bed or wipe the scrotum of the manikin correctly, which makes me doubt my intelligence very much.
But it's really hard to determine how smart someone is. Einstein was a genius who people thought was an idiot, so you simply never know!
Also, it was very good I didn't become an LPN. I don't want to have access to morphine or opioids!
To me, an IQ test does not tell a person how smart they are. It doesn't test the ability of the brain.
I got a 127 on my IQ test and yet, there are things that just don't compute. Experience outweighs a lot of the times. As I always say,
“Knowledge is ignorance to the people of ignorance, just as ignorance is ignorance to the people of knowledge.”

Bringing a gun to school sounds weird to me.
