At the risk of sounding like one of those people at Mensa that annoyed you... The people at Mensa aren't a valid sample of people who score high on IQ tests, because there is a such a strong selection effect for people with certain personality traits, such as wanting to join a club based on your IQ. | ||

By looking at interactions of people in Mensa I feel like 2% of top IQ is actually too low bar to notice anything particular about "high" IQ people. We are still pretty random in our interests and performance. | ||

Or, to put it as Groucho Marx did: "Please accept my resignation, I don't want to belong to any club that would have me as a member". | ||
