I wasn't referring to your typo rate or your spelling, mine is horrendous... what I meant was your statement was oxymoronic or paradoxical.

ive seen people that are 60 years old who never experienced anything that made them more knowledgable, and i have seen 6 year old who have learned more life lessons than 23 year olds. being older only means that you have had more time to experience things, not necesserily meaning that you DID experience them.

Oh i agree....i've met people older than me that were allot stupider, and younger peeps that were allot smarter....

But generally speaking, there is a direct coalition between age and knowledge.

It's like cinema ratings. There are undoubtedly some 11 year olds who could handle an X-rated or an 18 certificate, but most wouldn't, and that’s why they exist.

Yes, because ALL 14, 15, 16, 17, and 18 year olds have no political knowledge and are completely oblivious to the world around them.

13 year olds are a lot worse.

Que everyone telling everyone else that they have the best IQ. Funny thing is, everyone claims to be two or three standard deviations from the norm.

Either Politics is frequented by a group of geniuses who are only prevented from world domination by their curfew, or a bunch of extremely self-obsessed liars.

Has anyone else noticed this?

Yeah, unfortunately what you say is about 90% true. Usually when someone points out the topic starter is an uneducated moron, the topic starter will try to retort the person who says it fucks animals or is gay, and articulate it in really botched grammar. I can understand minimal mistakes, but there's a problem when someone spells you as "u."

Also, they ask why the person's being an asshole and its a freeboard to post questions. To which the person points out there's an Official Bush Topic and Proteas usually closes the rant topic.

At least, this is what I saw when I used to lurk here and decided to start posting. I do remember some kid saying they had an IQ of 212.

Yeah, but you usually post with correct grammar. There's no reason for you do fail to capitalize a simple word.

From his posts he doesn't use uppercase at all, which pisses me off because he says he's seventeen. In one more year he gets to decide who actually runs my country.

YAY, i get to decide between one horrible rich guy and another horrible rich guy. who are most likely friends

capitilizing is a waste of time if i want to show that a new sentence is starting ill put a period before it, and capitalizing 'I' is pointless, there is not difference between 'I' and 'i'

Now you’re sounding like a zealous missionary who feels an overwhelming need to convert the savages.

You do realize that the Jewish and Islamic God are the same as the Christian God right?

Its the same belief with different rules.

I guess my point is that I hate them, and they need to chill out. At least the majority of the people on this forum that I would consider 'regulars' - HighlyIllogical included - make a post that invites alternate points of view and, for the most part, maturely refutes them while conceding that some people have more experience with the subject. These kids, you try to tell them anything, you're an idiot and part of the system that doesn't recognize their understated brilliance on something like Late Archean Fossil Geology.

Aah fuck, just when I thought I was getting a little bit of respect around here I find out I have to wait another four years until my opinions are given any thought.

Sorry my man. I hate to tell you this, but you also have to move to America and wait four years. Then we'll take you seriously.
