I did this EQ test thing from the link listed out of curiousity and this is the result I got (personally I think it's bullshit but ok, whatever):

So, Spicy. You saying Gig & I are social retards, then? Dems fighting words.
Second thoughts can generally be amended with judicious action; injudicious actions can seldom be recovered with second thoughts.

I think that's a totally valid point that people who have high book smarts are retarded when it comes to social skills.
Street smarts and emotional intelligence can get you farther in this life anyway. But I suppose that also depends on how you define success. It's all relative.
Albert Einstein: schizophrenic. Another highly intelligent human being who had a mental disorder. But the funny thing is about having something that is defined as a disorder: so far science seems to define it as only being a negative thing. How do we know that high intelligence isn't in exact correlation to having some kind of disorder? Perhaps if Einstein wasn't schizophrenic, he wouldn't have been able to come up with everything he did. Perhaps having normal brain chemistry is an enlightenment trap in and of itself.

Don't cry, don't regret and don't blame
Weak find the whip, willing find freedom
Towards the sun, carry your name
In warm hands you are given
Ask the wind for the way
Uncertainty's gone, your path will unravel
Accept all as it is and do not blame

Ygg, I totally believe you aced that quiz, you EQ-nerd.
I want to see Cam's score for this test. His IQ pings the meter, but I'm curious about this one.

I know John Nash was. I thought Einstein was, we had to research him back in high school, and a few of the books we read talked about him being schizo. Maybe it was a different disorder, I really can't remember.

While it may be a fanciful leap, I find this quote from Buffalo Soldiers to be spot on and even relevant to this discussion:
Gen. Lancaster: [At the officer's party, after Colonel's Marshall and Berman have been boasting of their "famous" military family ancestors] You know what? I don't go much for this lineage shit. I'm not related to anyone famous, and this family-line bullshit makes me feel insecure. My belief is, if you come from dirt, you'll fight better, because you don't want to go back to the dirt. The best fighters in the world are people with nothing to lose.
Albert Einstein's SON had schizophrenia, not Albert Einstein.
Okay settle down everyone, let's hear this
