Don't do IQ tests late at night...

I hate you, Rosie.

I get home, thinking I'd just check my e-mail and hit the sack...catch up on a couple blogs, yadda yadda. I get to Rosie's blog, and she goes on to say what a fun time she had doing this puzzle, and here's the premise: You're a guy trapped in a room, and you have to find 13 items, put them to use together in a certain manner to get out of this room. So naturally, I can't pass up the chance to prove how smart I am (yeah yeah, I know you actually ahve to be smart to be able to effectively do that, it all sounds so obvious NOW...) Here's the alleged breakdown:

You find:

0-6 items, your IQ is very low
6-8 items, your IQ is low
9-10 items, your IQ is average
11-12 items, your IQ is high
13 items found and get out of the room, there are less than 4000 people in the world can do it.

I totally don't buy the 4000 people schtick. Nor do I particularly think it's an effective measurement, as it seems to me that it's just a lot of random and repetitive clicking around. That being said, I found 11 items in about 5-8 minutes, and got so angry that I couldn't get any further, that I invested even more time on it, finally getting to 12 items before I ahd to IM Rosie and ask her to help. She gave me a couple hints, and I was able to finally get through it. I accept that I'm not a supergenius like she is. I'm perfectly fine with my self-imposed title of subgenius. &%$#@! 'tard pseudo IQ tests. I swear, I don't even know why I do them, they just end up pissing me off...

My head hurts, I'm going to bed...
