I'm going to keep the others.

I remember one IQ test result I took on the internet, which said I was profoundly gifted.

And I took it and I printed it out and I put it on my bedroom wall.

I put this IQ test result on my bedroom wall.

I remember the specific...

corner of the wall that I put it on displaying my IQ test results I took from the internet.

Yeah.

I think I was desperate to prove to anyone, like just to show anyone like, look, there was, there's some intelligence over here.

Yeah, I remember the office.

It was a tiny room with file cabinets and a desk.

There was like a little small desk that he sat in and I sat right next to him.

And he had my files of like my files.

My worst nightmare, by the way.

I was like, I really hope he doesn't look at my files and he just looks at who I am now.

And he's like, so look, here's the deal.

And he draws on a piece of paper, his other napkin or a piece of paper.

He drew a bell curve.

And a bell curve for anyone that doesn't know what a bell curve is, you can place someone's IQ score on this kind of bell curve that shows what proportion in the population, what percentage you are, where you are, where you stand.

Where do you stand on IQ compared to everyone else in the general population or in your particular demographic?

And he started in the far right and he had the label gifted there.
