woody,

Fritz isn't German.

Steve.

Guys,

Before this thread starts to IMHO get ugly, may I be so bold as to digress slightly?

Alex,

You've stated elsewhere that your hand is, as you so eloquently put it, 'fucked'. How is it you manage to continue to post so regularly on the Forum? I admire your endurance.

Regards,

JonR

Violet anything you read here is what a man thinks, I know that you know that, all women do.

Nice post Ultra, but totally unconvincing.

The only possible remedy would be a new thread from you about the NSX Ownership Experience. 500 words should just about do it.

I'm afraid it's the only way.

This thread does no one any credit....it is just plain drivel, there is nothing original in it, just plain moronic garbage.

Very sad.

Mick

mick, this thread has more merit in it than the total fantasy of you being a member of mensa.
mensa mick...
don't you just love it!

TN

Trevor

This thread is not funny by any stretch of the imagination. Peronal insults from you make your position worse.

Mick

mick,
what I said wasn't intended as an insult.
I merely mentioned something I found extraordinarily funny.
are you really a member of mensa?
we need to know!

TN

Trevor

I joined Mensa in 1982, mainly for career purposes. It does get you taken more seriously.

I let my membership lapse in 1995 when the organisation became filled with infighting.

By that time, My career had peaked and there was no point in continuing membership.

I would divide the membership into 3 distinct groups.

1. Those who use it for self advancement.

2. Those who use it to meet others with similar intellect, it is actually a sexual hotbed. There was a very prominent gay element as well.

3. Those who want to find out if they are better than the other members and want their intellect stretched to the limit.

There is no common goal. If you join a Hifi forum, you may squabble with other members but at least there is the denominator of music.

In mensa, there was just a disjointed membership with very intelligent people pulling in all directions. It became an upmarket squabbling group.

The first thing that hits you, is that an IQ of 148 plus does not equate to common sense. There were some very strange people in it. Some of them were complete social buffoons but they could analyse data in seconds that would totally confuse Mr average. That is the appeal of it.

Membership was by examination and my strongest point was numeracy. I am still the best mental arithmetic person I know, but I am nowhere near as sharp as I used to be.

So yes, I was a member.

Regards

Mick

proficiency in spelling, grammar, and punctuation, obviously wasn't a prerequisite of membership
only kidding!

TN

Trevor

The ability to solve problems is the only requirement.

Spelling does not come into it.

If you are good with figures, can analyse awkward sentences and play around with jigsaw pussles, you are in with a chance.

The most intelligent member I met was a warehouse stacker driver who could play chess like no other.

The clergy seemed well represented.

I joined Densa in 1982, mainly for career purposes. It
does get you taken more seriously.

I let my membership lapse in 1995 when the organisation
became filled with infighting.

By that time, My Civil Service career had peaked and there
was no point in continuing membership.

I would divide the membership into 3 distinct groups.

1. Those who use it for ego & self advancement.

2. Those who use it to meet others with similar
intellect, it is actually a sexual hotbed. There was a
very prominent Fetish/heterosexual/Lesbian element as well.

3. Those who want to find out if they are better than
the other members and want their intellect & Contacts
and brown nosing skills stretched to the limit.

There is no common goal. If you join a Hifi (All Subjects under
the Sun forum), you may squabble with other members but at least
there is the denominator of Mick Parry.

In Densa, there was just a disjointed membership with very
stupid people pulling in all directions. It became a House
of Commons Select Committee cum squabbling group².

The first thing that hits you, is that an IQ of 14 plus does
not equate to Commons sense. There were some very strange
and super wealthy people in it. Some of them were complete
social buffoons but they could analyse lottery and betting slips
in seconds that would totally confuse Mr average prisoner. That
is the appeal of it.

Membership was by psychiatric examination and my strongest point
was Darts. I am still the best mental person I know, but I am
nowhere near as sharp as I used to be with the old chalk.

So yes, I was a member.

Regards

Fritz

Nothing: Below: (Either) I did once know a Dolphin chess master who was a member
of Mensa, but he just kept smiling all the time silly flippant beasty.

P.S. Due to Hurricaine Charley the 08:17 from Southend Central to Fenchurch
Street will not occur, innit.

Any chance of you sending me an application form.

Its sounds just the place to be,

Regards

Mick

It doesn't do the board any credit and it doesn't do Naim any credit but it does show up the morons for who they are. For that we should be grateful. It's always nice to know who the complete pricks are before wasting your time reading their postings in other threads.

All completly subjective and IMO of course.

Cheers

Oh cheers! It's always nice to be mentioned in dispatches

Now I know why everyone's been ignoring me lately

PS: Welcome back to the Naim Forum Mick - I see you haven't changed you cantankerous old git!!

LOL! Oh well, that'll teach me to go generalising - look on it as adding a bit of balance in the spirit of what had been posted already. Let's face it, one more dump's hardly going to make it smell any worse. I hate these threads (cos I'm soooo PC) but I can’t resist reading them anyway.

Harry

No probs Harry - just my occasional bout of insanity kicking in...this is, after all, the Padded Cell, n'est-ce pas?

I think one's entitled to the ocasionally irrational rant every now and again - I have been prescribed once a month.

Oh shite - now I have to be sane, coherent and reasonable for at least the next 30 days...
