How good of a lyricist do you think you are?
 

compared to the general population

Above average compared to population in the real world

The greatest who ever lived tbh.

lyricist as in writing lyrics for rap songs?


shitty bc I don't roleplay as a rapper

@DexLabb

This is a weird question.

In comparison to the average of the population? We're all above-average simply because we try.

Just like someone who benches, say, 185, is stronger than 90% of the non-lifting population.

They're not good, but they do it. So.

Vulgar you're drunk.

Are we talking knowledge or intelligence?

In all honesty, I think I'm only moderately more intelligent than the average population. Moderate is a considerable amount, though.

Not that smart

I can be when I think before I speak...but thinking before speaking is a thought in itself so in reality I guess I'm only in the 51st percentile

Well I've been in the 99th percentile since middle school

SO TOP ONE PERCENT OF THE POPULATION IS OBV.

Honestly this question is too broad. People can be geniuses but retarded in most areas and vice versa. Since this is a writing forum I'll put it this way - since we are all working within the constraining framework of making everything have to rhyme, we are becoming worse as overall writers. Topicals and battles enforce horrible writing habits. I think a lot of the topicalists here would translate well to short stories though. Dead Man, Oats, Pancake , Pinot Grij and myself come to mind. Just saw a really nice ass walk by. In terms of writing IQ, which I think you're getting at, the aforementioned writers, plus yourself and a few others here with work can easily reach genius level at short stories and eventually novels. It's about skill and repetition. 150 Writing IQs abounding

An average puzzlemaker can build a rubrics cube if he's given a drawing

Many of the worlds best writers weren't even that smart. Smart people just thought they were worth reading

You lack knowledge of this.

I'm a little smarter than some of the people I know

Which is good enough for me

The smartest who ever lived tbh.

Writing short stories is my favourite form of writing.

I'd say most great writers were pretty brilliant. I can't think of an exception actually. Lots of fuck ups and alcoholics, but that often breeds some serious insight on humanity.
