| A study by Norweigan scientists wrote: |
A study that used military draft records for more than 240,000 Norwegian men found that firstborns had an edge of 2.3 IQ points on their next oldest brothers, who in turn beat brothers born third by 1.1 points on average.
Men who had been raised as the eldest, whether they were born first, second, or third, had IQs to match their first-born peers. The same was true for those raised or born second, Petter Kristensen and colleagues at the University of Oslo report in the journals Science and Intelligence. |
In summation, firstborn children are smarter.

I'm part of the other percentage because I'm way smarter than my 19-yr old sister, who asked me to spell "marriage" for her.

I can confirm that my brother is indeed more intelligent than me, however I can beat him up, as well I am not engaged to a fatty, therefore I feel as if I am the winner.

I'm the oldest, and in comparison to my drug-using, drop out, broke-assed brother, I'm definitely the smarter of the two... with my sister though, it's a bit of a toss up, she's the youngest, and she's not as intelligent as me, but she's got amazing artistic ability, which I don't have at all. I can't even draw good stick men, and she's been accepted into several art programs... so in conclusion, my brother is an idiot, my sister is artsy, and I'm the oldest therefore the smartest.

You know why he doesn't?
Because he's too fucking dumb to figure out how to use the internet on his own.

I'm the oldest. I'm smarter than my sister, but she's damn smart herself. My brother...well, he's good at sports.

It was a joke, cuz see the story is about... Oh, nevermind.
Seriously though, he got internet installed at his apartment at least a week ago, so that's the only possible explanation. It's not like the forums don't fit into his busy schedule of working 20 hours a week and having sex/playing Super Mario Strikers with his girlfriend.

And yet he's still a moderator. How does that work again?
It's not bitterness, Tish; it's the truth.

It always sucks when friends get in serious relationships or get married, they usually just end up ditching their friends....

Happened with my friend Dustin. His girlfriend is nice and all, but I don't see him as much.

I guess I'll do something new and come to Jeebus' defense.... he's been with his girlfriend for who knows how many years (like 4 or something) and this is the first time in like 3 years that they're actually in the same state... they were actually living on opposite ends of the country for the better part of their relationship. Let them have sex, they have 3 years of catching up to do!

If I could get a girl that was smoking hot, wanted me physically, and could kick my ass at Super Smash Bros. Melee, you'd never see my ass again.
