What it's like to go through life w/ a 153 verbal IQ

are fun.
And these are the situations that most people fear, such as public
speaking, or a challenging question from a professor or school mate,
or a "chop fight" or "bagging contest" (as it is called nowadays) with
anyone.
When such a situation comes up the person with the 150 plus verbal IQ
cannot help but grin in anticipation of how they will be able to
easily destroy their opponent and cleverly turn all listeners to their
side if they wish.
I say verbal IQ because such a person may be weak at math and not feel
the same way when math questions come up. Also such a person may be
only average in social situations and only a bit above average in
athletic contests.
So in those arenas of competition the great feeling of confidence and
anticipation---the feeling of "I'm about to kick some low IQ butt"---
does not arise.
The person with the 153 IQ (measured on the verbal part of the Army GT
Test), will, after posting on Usenet, wait for a reply with the same
almost sadistic anticipation.

And yet you very recently published a confession that almost every time
you try to tell someone something they fail to understand you.
And - erm - the conclusions to draw from that is that you have a great
verbal IQ, and everyone else is stupid. Well I suppose that's one
conclusion, but it's far from the obvious or simple one.

Well you have failed to understand me. But whose fault is that?
As you should have noted if you had an IQ above 100, the previous post
was in the third person. I did not say I was talking about myself.
If you concluded that from my masterful use of the English language,
well, I can understand why.

I have an all round IQ of 158 as certified by Mensa so there's just the
possibility that you are about to be on the receiving end of aforesaid
feeling.
But no, I'm one of the nice guys really, I'm not like that. Greetings to a
fellow genius!

As a smart person, I'm sure You do realize you're talking stereotypes
and generalizations here, don't you? But sometimes stereotypes, and
even generalizations, are very useful tools in the process of
knowledge.
So, stereotypically speaking, since you're so verbally adept, but you
don't score high on precision, I believe you're a very smart woman;
or, if you're a man, you're a very smart gay man.

Does the verbal IQ test test knowledge of the difference between common
English homophones?

It was a preface to a statement, by myself, a troll, that was meant to
illicit an annoyed (at the least) response. (Remember that no
responses are like the death penalty for us trolls)
It seems in your case only the setup was needed to get the response.
Kinda like when I someone trolling in Dublin bay, everytime she put an
unbaited hook in the water she got a fish.
But that hardly counts as being a good fisherman. And your response
hardly counts as a catch for this troller---so I am throwing you back.
