Is chatting with friends for dullards?
One who digs into deep issues
What does that even mean? In my observation there's a few hundred people in the world who actually "dig into deep issues". They are supplemented by about fifty million others who think they are being deep because have just taken a freshman philosophy class and/or drugs.
- erikpukinskis 16y agoOut of curiosity, which do you think you are?
- hugh3 16y agoNeither. (With occasional episodes of class 2 back when I used to go to first-year philosophy lectures, but that was twelve years ago...)
- brlewis 16y agoChatting with friends all day correlates with low NFC. I wouldn't use the word "dullards", which is one reason I could probably not get a job writing attention-grabbing headlines. By "dig into deep issues" I just meant activities associated with high NFC. I think such activities are correlated with intelligence, but I wouldn't hazard a guess as to how good a predictor of intelligence they are.
- CaptainZapp 16y agoIs chatting with friends for dullards? I dare say that Facebook has an extremely lose definition of a friend. I can count my real friends on one hand and don't think that's low.
