I put 26%-50%, but I dont think Id quite reach to 50%. Probably around 30-35%, more like it. I dont believe much of anything online, but alot of you here do seem rather honest.

Iīm actually a pure genius. I just donīt know enough english words to put it down on print and show off in here.:D

Now, I have a large vocabulary from writing and upper level English courses that I've taken, both in high school and university levels. However, I don't think I'm a goddamn genius because I can use the word "loquatious" in a sentence. My parents are both intelligent, and so is my brother.

Also, we have people that post without thinking, but I don't think there are any really and trully learning deficient folks around here. I mean, if you can construct a "lofty sentence," then you've obviously have some natural shine. If it's a poorly constructed sentence, then you've got shine in potentia...or something.

How about the percentages? I won't wote, cause i have no idea on this. Thus, i can't see the results...?

If I'm in the right mood, I'll post intellignent stuff. Most of the time I just procrastinate and I type my smart-alec comments.

I'm not too good with the written word. I'm much better at speaking. When I sit down to write something I can never get my thoughts in order enough to put together a well constructed sentence, let alone a whole paragraph like some people on here. I read some posts here and think "Damn, why didn't I think of saying that?"

I'm the exact opposite. I'm not a good speaker. In front of a group of strangers its like my tongue is made of Jello.

I used to be that way. Since I've started speaking at my church I've become much more comfortable with it.

I'm also the opposite of you Taylorsmommy. I have a hard time with verbal communication partially because I'm a little bit shy in person, and also because of the things that happen to me when I'm speaking.

I stutter a little bit. I get nervous, so it's like a domino effect. I'm better than I was, though. University helped me with that. I took a lot of seminar courses where I was required to speak.

I've been thinking about this thread a lot as the day has worn on. I'm afraid the purpose that it serves, while entertaining, may divert more people into silent positions. It's definitely made me a little more conscientious about what I say. I certainly don't want to seem full of shit all of the time.

Could you define "bullshit?" I'm serious. For this thread to really make sense, we need a working definition of "bullshit." That way, I can be even more attentive to what I am posting.:)
