Another brainiac from the lounge.   ::)  Although it would be a riot if all the DUmmies were locked out of their own site.  :lmao:

"Instant peace" on Skins's island because none of the bona fide primitives would possibly pass any IQ test, no matter how low the barrier.

The don't know history. They're not very good in math. Their language skills suck, if you take away the "4" letter words, they can't express themselves......so how the hell do you give them an IQ test ??????

Oh, I know. You piss in a bottle and if you fail the drug test, you're in like Flint.

IQ tests require logic and analytical thinking.  DU would be RethugUnderground.com before the afternoon was over.

The use of the word "foolproof" on DU is simply an oxymoron.

There's a reason why patriotism is considered a conservative value. Watch a Tea Party rally and you'll see people proudly raising the American flag and showing pride in U.S. heroes such as Thomas Jefferson. Watch an OWS rally and you'll see people burning the American flag while showing pride in communist heroes such as Che Guevera. --Bob, from some news site

Ya know, I think that this could work for DU.

If your IQ was below, say, 60, then you're allowed on the site. :tongue:

You do have to give it to the DUmbasses sometimes, that was hilarious.

Reading DU is like listening in to the monkeys in the zoo. "First we would tie up that zoo keeper fella, then we would cram as many bananas as possible into our mouths, and then we'd fling poo and take a nap. Yeah! That sounds brilliant!!!"

No, my friends, there’s only one really progressive idea. And that is the idea of legally limiting the power of the government. That one genuinely liberal, genuinely progressive idea — the Why in 1776, the How in 1787 — is what needs to be conserved. We need to conserve that fundamentally liberal idea. That is why we are conservatives. --Bill Whittle

This is more the approach I had in mind-a maximum I.Q. for DU membership. Like, in actuality, a 115, but belief in your entitlement to a 155?
