Today, I took a legitimate IQ test and got a score of 80. My parents both have IQ scores above Einstein’s. FML

Today, to settle a bet with a friend, I took an online IQ test twice. The first time, I chose answers at random without reading the questions. The second time, I took it for real. I got a higher score from the random selections than from my serious attempt. FML

Today, my 11-year-old son and I took an IQ test for a laugh. To be honest, I've often suspected that I may have some form of mental retardation, but I didn't expect to get a score of 79, while he got one of 114. FML

IQ isn't real

Today, I spent 16 minutes doing a “free” IQ test. I then found out you had to pay, and then spent another 20 on another. Now I feel dumb. FML

Today, I had a giant Scantron test. After putting 10 answers, I noticed every single answer was A. I got freaked out and started putting random answers. Turns out every answer on the test was A. I failed. FML

Today, I took an IQ test and ended up scoring above average. Feeling good about myself, I decided to bake some cookies. After 30 minutes of them not doing anything in the oven, I realized I forgot to turn the oven on. FML

Today, I was taking a final test online that would account for 65% of my final grade, for which I'd worked extremely hard. I had one submission for the test, and my roommate thought it would be funny to click the "Submit All" Button while I was getting a glass of water. I got a 13%. FML

Today, I took my Spanish test, and I felt very confident. I got the test back later, and saw my teacher had written on it: "Congrats on the 94%, but I know you cheated." FML

Classic rookie mistake

Today, I was taking a test and thought I was doing great until I realized I was writing all my answers on the question paper, not the answer sheet. By the time I noticed, there were only five minutes left. FML

Maybe it was an unrealistically low score

IQ tests are just for entertainment purposes OP. The result means nothing.

Yeah don't worry OP, cheer up. In the grand scheme of things your life is completely meaningless and insignificant and one day you will inevitably die without making the smallest difference in the universe. So really what does one silly number matter?

Those online supposed IQ tests are bogus. They are not legitimate tests of ones true genius. A psychologist administers these tests, not testmyIQ.com. Silly rabbit tricks are for kids;)

A score of 73 would mean you are mentally retarded and pretty badly to so its probably not true. You probably wouldn't even understand this app if your IQ was that low. And IQ does matter, if you have an IQ of lower than 85 you cannot attend regular school, besides that its just a representation of mostly your logical intelligence.

None of that is true. It's hard to make a blanket statement about schools since they differ by country/locale, but in the US, everyone (even the severely intellectually disabled) attends school. And some children with IQ's below 85 are certainly in mainstream classrooms. Intellectual disability is defined (generally) as

Today, there was a long queue at the store, and behind me were two senior citizens. I wanted to do a good deed, so I said, "Cut before me in line, I have all the time in the world." My reward? The old man scolded me because I supposedly insinuated that they were old, and only had a short time left to live. FML

Today, as I was driving home, I saw a woman get hit by a car. I immediately parked on the side of the road to assist her. I called an ambulance and stayed with her until they came to get her, comforting her all the while. When I returned to my car, I found a parking ticket in my windshield. FML

Today, my husband and I left for a two-month trip. Our roommate called us after 16 hours of driving to inform us that our dog was attacked and sprayed by a skunk and had rubbed all over our stuff. He now has to get shots and be tested for rabies, and we have to toss all our furniture. FML

Today, I was running late for work and I was carrying my stuff to my car, handbag over my shoulder, laptop in one hand, and my coffee in the other. As I tried to unlock my car, I spilt the coffee all over myself, the car, and my laptop. Now, I’m sticky, wet, and my laptop won't turn on. FML
