the only people that get mensa memberships are people who don't do anything that suggests they're intelligent, so they need a little card to say it

Does Mensa Provide Intellectual Stimulation?

Think-two-three, think-two-three! Mensa provides intriguing ways to flex your mental muscles. You'll find intellectual resources in national magazines, in local newsletters, and at regional, national and international conventions.

Whatever your passion, there's almost certain to be a Special Interest Group (SIG) filled with other Mensans who share it! Mensa offers approximately 200 SIGs, in mind-boggling profusion from African Violets to zoology. Along the way you'll find microbiology, and systems analysis, but you'll also find Sherlock Holmes, chocolate and Star Trek. There are the expected: biochemistry, space science, economics -- and the unexpected: poker, roller-skating, scuba diving, UFOs and witchcraft. There are SIGs for breadmaking, winemaking, cartooning, silversmithing, and clowning. Heraldry, semantics and Egyptology co-exist with beekeeping, motorcycling and tap dancing. Sports SIGs cover the classics (baseball, basketball, and football) and the not-so-classic (skeet shooting, hang gliding, skydiving). And any Mensan who can't find a SIG to join can easily start one.

tards have Sigs, just like FYAD

I wonder if the Mensa Forum has people arguing endlessly in circles for hours or if all their threads reach logical conclusions with everyone in agreement.

The Mensa membership year begins April 1 and ends March 31.

Want to join in March? That will be $70 in March and another $70 in April. If this doesn't make sense maybe you just don't belong in Mensa.

i like how there are other high iq societies with more stringent requirements

wikipedia posted:

Top 2 percent of population (98th percentile; 1 person out of 50; approximately IQ 130):
Mensa International – as of January 2014, ~110,000 members from ~100 countries; annual dues for American Mensa are $70 (dues differ by country).
Top 1 percent (99th percentile; 1 out of 100; approximately IQ 135):
Intertel – as of January 2014, 1,300-1,400 members; annual dues are $39.
Top 0.1 percent (99.9th percentile; 1 out of 1,000; approximately IQ 146):
Triple Nine Society – as of July 2015, 1,600-1,650 members from 47 countries; annual dues are $10.
International Society for Philosophical Enquiry – as of December 2014, 410 members; annual dues are $50 ($37.50 for over-65).
Top 0.003 percent (99.997th percentile; 1 out of 30,000; approximately IQ 160):
Prometheus Society – as of January 2014, ~120 members; annual dues are $50.
Top 0.0001 percent (not reliable with current tests):
Mega Society – as of January 2014, 26 members

it's cool because nobody knows what any of these other things are so these people, who have high iqs, are paying for memberships to a thing that nobody knows or gives a gently caress about

Well, I've wrestled with reality for 35 years, Doctor, and I'm happy to state I finally won out over it.
I am/was in Mensa, was a dream since being a teen (yeah, I'm sad like that), and when I did pass the test and got in, I applied and received the Mensa credit card. Had no benefits, but made me feel special.

And special it did, until I used it to pay for dinner at our local Mexican restaurant. The waitress took it, looked at it, and at the register called a couple of guys over and they looked at it, pointed at me discretely, smiled, and then brought back the check. Curious, I went home and translated 'Mensa' from Spanish to English.

The result was 'Idiot'.

That was the last time the credit card was used.

Nowadays, you can do anything that you want; anal, oral, fisting, but you need to be wearing gloves, condoms, protection.
i have an IQ of 178 but I can't figure out CSS3, nor can I figure out vague generalized non-specific statements like 'Whenever, I'll get around to it' without having some sort of fit.
