It's a complicated legal deal by two separate companies ![]() Do you have an IQ that could join Mensa?? |

No....mine is around 127 so not high enough. However, my niece is in Mensa and she's frankly as boring as they come. I would rather be unusual and less intelligent
![]() Which would you choose? |

Certainly as being different from most of them which was something I encouraged. I never wanted to be like the popular kids. And I am very happy that my kids were exactly the same.
Academically the teachers wanted to put me into a higher class but I begged to be allowed to stay with my pals in the lower stream ![]() Were you in with the popular kids? |

No. I was in the highest stream but moved schools too often to stay there. Being offered the chance to be top stream was something I would have done anything for

Have not seen it
At nearly all my schools there were no popular or unpopular kids = we were all just similar kids at secondary school in the UK I was always in the top stream class [ L ] [ I often came 6th out of the whole year ] I became a member of Mensa sometime in the early 90's Nate ![]() My IQ got a score of 157 on my first test I think I got 155 on my Supervised / Cattell official test Do you do much online grocery shopping ?? |

I've never online grocery shopped....I'd be too worried about them substituting loads of things I didn't want....plus, you don't get the yellow sticker items that way!
Gelato or ice cream? |

ice cream for me
Edit - that sounds like a good thing to clamp down on on FB I used a £15 off voucher on 25th Will get £15 off a delivery coming tomorrow night and have another £15 off voucher - I will use soon after that £45 Off is good incentive for me to place 3 orders You can select to have NO substitutes on any products you choose and select if you want to have - or not have bags etc I am called a VIP @ Sainsbury's since 2003 or 2004 and you can place orders for family or friends as a lovely surprise / helpful / gift If you were offered a good money off voucher - would you ever give it a go ? |

Offer them hope, offer them solutions. Be seen to do nothing. It is a common misnomer that Trump is the Republican's fault when the Democrats caused his success as much as social media
![]() Betty Lou Gerson or Glenn Close?? |

Yes, all lives matter and for that reason Trident will always be up there amongst the most important political issues for me. I am against, of course.
Which is the better film, Reservoir Dogs or Pulp Fiction? |

Apocalypse Now
![]() twass - Reservoir Dogs ![]() “Black Lives Matter, to use an analogy, is like if there was a subdivision and a house was on fire, the fire department wouldn’t show up and start putting water on all the houses because All Houses Matter. They would show up, and they would turn their water on the house that was burning because that’s the house that needs help the most.” How good is Event Horizon?? |

I remember it being scary but not much else about it I'm afraid....
Does that mean it can't have been all that good or I would have remembered more about it? |

Well when you think that you could define a disability as slight hearing loss, slight visual impairment, a small physical impairment etc as well as the more obvious disabilties then yes and it could be even higher than a fifth. I have very short sight but I don't consider it a disability cos I can see OK with glasses or contact lenses. But some might say they had a disability I guess.
Then there are the whole spectrum of mental health issues, some of which can be very disabling, but are mainly invisible to other people. Depends on how you view it. Have you ever witnessed an argument regards people using disabled bays? I once saw a situation with one driver accusing another of not being disabled
