Actual IQmaxxing thread for gaslighting

[Budflog]

Too many people do this shit wrong. Spending hours a day just to solve a Rubik’s cube fast or be good at programming doesn’t make you look smart, at all. What does is knowing things everyone feels like they should know. People feel like they should know where Morocco is or what 13 x 6 is off the top of their head, but they don’t. If you do know these things you look better than them. It’s that simple.
The whole point of IQmaxxing is to gaslight. Learn shit and when asked just say you remember it from a long time ago. Don’t ever admit to studying, memorizing, or any of that shit. The laid back dude with a crazy sharp mind mogs the shit out of the nerd who studies all the time. Make it known which one of those you are.



Generals:

This shit is your main focus, learn it now.



Fast mental math:

“Oh shit what’s 13 times 6-“ “78”

Don’t fucking blurt it out and be smug, don’t look like you’re calculating, just say the answer with confidence. Too many people learn this shit only to race to the answer and look around like they’re cool when they look like a dumb ass.



Countries by map, capitals, and flags:
This shit comes up all the time. Walking into a building and there’s a bunch of flags, one of the people with you goes “what countries flag is that?” And you glance up and say “oh that’s Morocco.” If they ask how, gaslight. “Oh we had a presentation on Morocco in like 10th grade and I remember the flag, dunno why”



Basic memory shit:

This is honestly more just pay attention without looking like you are. Someone reads out an address just ducking pay attention and remember it. When they go “oh shit wtf was the address” now you know.
Again, it’s all about knowing the things people think they should know.


Other shit to do:

Actually study, but don’t act like it. Study the shit that makes you look smart. Just because you read the book for English and know the themes doesn’t make you smart, you just did the work. But if you study for your Econ classes and know all the shit, you can play it off as just figuring it out. You can’t figure out the theme of a book without reading it but you can figure out Econ. Act like you did.



So study math, physics, Econ, STEM shit. When people ask say you just figured it out during the test or that it makes sense. Gaslight.



Again, learn the things people are insecure about not knowing.



I know, waster is wet but too many fucking IQmaxx Threads are just fucking “tell people you program and play chess and they think you’re smart” when there are way easier ways to cover the basics.



Tldr learn mental math, countries of the world by map flag and capital, pay attention and remember shit, study but act like you don’t

Then do it bro, it’s not terribly hard. Set aside 1-2 hours everyday at a certain time and actually study. Go to the library if you have to do it focused you.

Being smart is like 3 things. Read, do math, and study a craft. People notice if you’re well spoken and well read. They also notice if you have a craft you’re into. Math just adds to this if they’re studying math and you already know most the concepts they do.

Bro you have no idea what gaslighting is if you think it's that, gaslighting is more like saying "Remember that blue turtleneck you wore" when the other person was wearing a red turtleneck and making them doubt their own memory.

This is more like hiding your un-needed knowledge level lmao.

I’m using it the same way it was used here, don’t tell people you work on this shit

Yeah basically hiding your powerlevel, calling it gaslighting is a bit extreme imo.
