What actions do you associate with a below average IQ?

Religiously watching more than a handful (I'll be generous) of reality shows. I get it if you have a guilty pleasure or three. But if that's all you watch, chances are you're breeding trailer trash half wits who see nothing wrong with eating candy bars for every meal of the day.

I'm going to be the next Warren

Warren jeffs?
Or that tarded kid from something about Mary that is always looking for his baseball?

Don't worry Frank, I will help you find your baseball. No shame in asking for help

Somehow, Franklin is just so far from a Warren Jeffs I immediately dismissed that thought, and wondered what cool, laid-back genius he might be referring to as comparable to himself on a really bad day. I don't keep up with the trendy, popular names much.

For Frank and PKM to be talking about not drinking anymore, I have to do some reality checks pretty quick to make sure I'm not just being pwned.

Now I personally fall below your threshold, but I've always differentiated between celebrity reality TV, like keeping up with the Kardashians, Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, from Competitive Reality TV like Survivor, the Amazing Race, from whatever you'd call reality TV based on odd professions or personalities like Deadliest Catch, Duck Dynasty, etc. If there is a reality TV show associated with a persons hobbies (like duck hunting, or driving on "ice roads") I'll give 'em a freebie on watching reality shows associated with that. But I have pretty much zero tolerance for the trashiest of the bunch, like Jersey Shore, Real Housewives.

The thing about all of them is that even though they're called "reality" TV, the producers are actively making things happen so that the crew being paid to film and edit it all can do so without having to weed through 1000s of hours of nothing. Even the competition shows are manipulated by production. Pawn Stars has been shown to be at least largely staged. This stuff is not reality TV, it's semi-scripted, production driven, shows featuring amateur actors.

So I differentiate because I watch Survivor, Amazing Race (probably best of the bunch) and Big Brother (worst of the bunch). It's easy to look down on them, but I like watching how people act in a social game motivated by an easy payday.

Warren buffet, I reckon
 
We once named our bowling team "WE BOWL RIQ" because we all started the season with averages in the 150's or higher.

It was a great name - nobody could figure it out though!

The past few seasons I think my bowling average does pretty closely match my IQ. Both are pretty decent.

Although honestly, I don't really know what my IQ is.

I'd replace "personalities" with "hobbies", but otherwise agree. Competitive reality TV is basically a form a game show. My wife is a big fan of America's Got Talent.
 
When I'm holding two things (like an orange peel, and a cell phone) and I throw my cell phone in the trash instead of the orange peel. I do this all the ****ing time.

Same here.

Also, have you ever lost your cell phone in your hand?

Yes. I was holding my cell phone and my wallet in my right hand, but my wallet was on top of my cell phone (therefore obscuring it from my view).


Looked for the phone for like 5 minutes
 
Desire to please and be thought of as productive and helpful.

Personally, I'm saddened by all the negative connotations in this thread.

Why would it make you sad? I assume you are one or more of;
- joking / hyperbole
- saddened because everyone's replies demonstrates, in your opinion, a general population of knuckledraggers
- we are society bent on hating our neighbor
- generally prone to sadness
