I am curious as to how you evaluate your intelligence compared to that of Wajoma?
Generally, I've found that people who brag about their intelligence do so because nobody else will.
However I don't brag about my intelligence.
An honours degree from London University puts me somewhere above average.
And Wajoma's posts put him somewhere below average.
You can work out our relative intelligence from that.

You seem to have a deep-seated fear of people more intelligent than you
with your anti-intellectual pot-shots and nonsense diatribes. That must
leave you cowering wherever you go. Stay indoors much?
Packed a day pack and headed for Snookyville (wolfgang FYI, not a French word) Had to call into the Brit embassy to hand in a found passport. A 20yo female traveller had her bag snatched while riding in a tuk tuk in a part of Phnom Penh known as riverside. The thieves dropped what they didn't need. While at the embassy I met a young kiwi fellow applying for emergency travel papers. Exact same thing had happened to him. Try to at least keep your passport on your person.
Here's what Lonely Planet has to say about the road to Snookyville: "Sihanoukville is 230km from PP along NH4, one of Cambodia's most dangerous highways because of heavy truck traffic."
I encountered two separate head on collisions, cars still sitting where they'd come to the sudden stop, occupants already either ejected or extracted. During the rest of the journey I was forced onto the dirt shoulder at least 10 times.
Out of doors activities for the afternoon: Lay by the pool at Ropanha Boutique (wolfgang FYI this may or may not be a french word) Hotel, followed by $2 real fruit cocktails in Serendipity St.
Hope you've been getting out of doors too, please don't feel compelled to tell us about your out of door activities.
In fact, just don't.
Originally posted by twhiteheadHis main points? Something about me cowering? Is that his main point? Surely it can't be the anti-intellectual potshots, we haven't seen anything intellectual from No1, and if No1 can't get a foot on the bottom rung of the intellectual ladder Wolfgang wouldn't even know what the ladder looked like if he tripped over it.
Actually, he didn't ask about your outdoors activities. He asked if you stay indoors much. But I am sure you already knew that and just needed an excuse to deflect from his main points.
I threw a bit of bait out with the toot sweet thing and he was too thick to see the big ole hook in it. Wadda sap.
You know, back to the point of this thread, I really couldn't give a rat's bald patootie what my elected officials do in their bed or on their own time. As long as they are serving the people and not their own interests, they could have a whole stable of hookers and/or cheating on their spouse and I couldn't really be forced to care. We don't elect them to be saints. We elect them to represent us to the best of their ability and as long as they're doing that, then it's all good. I don't see how cramming our 'virtues' down their throats is doing anyone any good.

As far as this topic goes, upon further reflection it seems to me that infidelity is a sin some fall into, however, what troubles me the most are those who seem to take pride in it.
Trump bragged about his sex life in his book "The Art of the Comeback," writing: "If I told the real stories of my experiences with women, often seemingly very happily married and important women, this book would be a guaranteed best-seller."
I guess Cruz was right, New York morals.
Thanks New York for both Trump and Hillary. You kids we be the death of the country yet.
