Is this a meme yet or is there supposed to be a joke other than me

No but for real I have this paralysis fear of iq tests because I suspect I am a total moron so I do sometimes these public ones so I can have an excuse in case it goes wrong and it never showed me something bad and theoretically I am not stupid but I feel like I am

Intelligence is independent from executive capabilities though. Plenty of dumb neurotypicals, plenty of really smart people with ADHD. A ton of intelligence is useless if you have executive difficulties because you will never apply said intelligence into something beneficial for yourself. Intelligence is also multidimensional and a spectrum. I've met a lot of really stupid people with doctor titles and highly technical work roles. You can be a genius in area A while also being an absolute moron in area B. That's just normal life.
