Your Opinion on Intelligence Is it something you're born with? Do you earn it? Both? According to the TDSB, I'm an "exceptionally gifted" student. I don't feel, however, particularly good about it, as I don't feel like my personality nor my mental capability is really "me." I feel more like I inherited it from my mother, and that I don't have anything special in me, myself. Confusing, right? What's your opinion on intelligence? I'm looking for both reconciliation and answers. Oh, and I understand it wasn't a sane decision to try to engage in an intellectual discussion... on Basilmarket... (Wow. This thread makes me seem like a nerd. <_< )
Embarrassed about (no, not buying nx.) Well, yesterday I got a haircut. I used to have a black metro/rebel looking hair, with fairly long bangs. When it got cut, the hair all around my ears got cut and all my bangs. I now look like a hideous monkey-thing and I'm embarrassed around my gf. What should I do? Even that guy in the link below looks better. (to)talprosports.com/2010/08/04/picture-of-the-day-hazing-at-its-best/ Without the brackets. I don't know why I can't use the word "to. Edit: No, no that guy is not me.

Intelligence, Giftedness, Iq Hey Basil. I'm in a nerdy mood today. Sometimes I go into a kind of trance where I just start wondering about obscure things. This is actually one of the less obscure things, but I did find out why Mentos explodes in Diet Coke and why Lemmings went extinct and wh- Anyways, I digress. Back to the thread. What are your opinions on intelligence? What's more respectable, innate intelligence or someone not born with many talents with a good work ethic? What's considered a high "IQ" and does your IQ get higher with age? While you're at it, just answer for me, please, what is your IQ? Also, define "Giftedness." What are your opinions on Gifted students, if you are one, how is the program different?
Religion Hopefully this ends well It's my second pointless thread for the night. Opinions on religion? Are you an atheist? If not, why do you believe in the existence of a higher being? How do you justify your belief, and why do you believe? What drives you to the length of devotion? That's all. Thanks.
Do you hate school presentations? Pretty much the title. I hate them, because it's always either "publicly derail yourself" or "be a robot." Also, do you have any embarrassing stories about it? (Or just any story. I don't mind.) I have to do a presentation every week. It's ridiculous.
Apple Lightning Cable Quick question. If my device isn't under warranty, will Apple replace my 3 month old one for a new one? Also, anyone have an idea on what's wrong with it or fixes? It's for iPod Touch 5G, and a hole is in it, earlier smoke came out of it. Thanks.
My kitty ran away! Well, my kitty ran away in the morning and I'm really worried he's dead or something. He ran away (probably to mate) and hasn't come back yet. It's 10:33 PM and he ran away at about 9:00 in the morning... So, what should I do now? EDIT: I've been looking for him ever since I got home, but it's just not helping. OTHER EDIT: I can't get him neutered because I [i]itterally[/i] have no more money. ONCE AGAIN, EDIT: Too similar to another thread? Trolling? Then I'll give more background info. Every day he's been looking to go outside, to mate. He's about a year old, male, not neutered, calico cat. LAST EDIT: He came back! Though he has 3 rashes, 3 scratches in his ear, a bleeding spot on his head, a long scar on the back of hi
Help with my life Hi Basil. I'm about to ask for help on a fairly serious topic, so please respond seriously. I know that's a ridiculous thing to ask for on Basil. Before you're like, "why are you asking Basil?" It's because I got banned from YahooAnswers for being underage. Anyways; I've got a lot of drama going through my life right now, and it's based on religion. My father hasn't been there for me since I was 7, as he's schizophrenic, bipolar, and refuses to take medicine. My mother has, recently, been becoming an extremist. I feel I don't have parents anymore. She spouts out erratic nonsense all the time. Furthermore, if I bring up legitimate points that she can't answer, she simply changes the topic or restates her point. I'
Mood Swings, Im scared. No sarcasm intended Okay, I've made a bunch of threads and posts before, but none on this kind of sad tone, and I usually tell people not to endorse threads like these. I'm posting this small little beginning statement because I don't wanna get right to it. So here's where I'll start. My family has experienced complications like lack of money, bipolar & schizophrenic parents, and whatnot. Which is why I'm scared of actually [i]getting[/i] bipolar disorder. You see, since my parent(s) have had encounters with mental disorders like those, it's at a MUCH higher chance that I will, myself, get bipolar disorder. Plus, I have some symptoms of it, like mood swings and depression. Sometimes I'm feeling ecstatic, energeti
Any sites similar to Hi Basil. So, the question is simple. Does anyone know any sites similar to GoogleAnswers or Yahoo!Answers?

I may have Cyclothymia Hi Basil. I'll get to the point. I may have Cyclothymia. My father had Bipolar disorder, heightening my chances of it, and I've been through some drama at a young age. I fit all the symptoms, and it usually begins in teenage years, which is what I'm in. Should I consult a doctor? I'm a bit intimidated. Medication is expensive and I don't want the side effects or withdrawal. I've taken several different tests, and I know they don't serve as an absolute diagnosis, but all four of the tests said I had a "Very High" chance of having Cyclothymia, and "High" chance of Bipolar Disorder. The two conditions are very closely related, and Cyclothymia can progress into Bipolar. I don't want that happening so I
So, did you hear the news? Twitter is closing and making a new site called Twttr. It's just like Twitter, but you have to pay five dollars a month for vowels.
Does anyone play YuGiOh? Title. :) I do, obviously. I run Gem-Knights and Chaos Plant Synchro in real life. Also, anyone want to duel on Dueling Network?
