WHY ENGLISH IS HARD TO LEARN

[chrisb01]

The smartest 5%???

When I was a kid my father put me in Catholic school. After three years, they gave me the IQ test, and I scored 64. So they called my father and said: "We gave your son the IQ test and he scored 64."

My Father: "So?"

School: "That's impossible, that would make him an idiot."

My Father: "You mean to tell me, I've been paying you for three years, and now is when you come to find out he's an idiot?"

Hahaha...

You're foolish to believe you can actually "become" part of the intellectually elite.

When did I claim I could?

If I was I wouldn't admit it because then I'd just sound cocky. I'd look down on you all silently

Try learning to just speak and read Cantonese (not mandarin / putonghua) ... now that will throw any ones head in for a real spin... between the thousands of characters and different tones, i would say that would probably be one of the hardest languages to learn...

Swing and a miss. I was joking around about your phrasing.

Dont worry, if anyone questions how smart you really are then you can just contradict everything you say, cry that everyone is picking on you, and then disappear for a few days

I wasn't sure. My sense of humor/sarcasm can be a little dry.
