Date: June 30th, 2024 10:09 PM Author: kirimasa Huh. I'm really surprised by this. I know they knew each other but didn't think they were close and I also would never have thought he'd shout out someone who hasn't been relevant for so long.
Do you have a source for this? |

Date: June 30th, 2024 10:55 PM Author: Peckerwood (If I May, tp) "Fan" isn't the descriptor I'd personally use, but I do have a certain, shall we say, "appreciation" of Pensive's iconoclastic modes of thought. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5548328&forum_id=2...id#47796331) |

Date: June 30th, 2024 10:25 PM Author: Peckerwood (If I May, tp) Establishment types are afraid of him more than anything else, because his "outside the box" style of thinking represents a threat to their interests. I know first-hand that this has affected his career progression; a guy with his level of skill should be E9+ by now. I won't defend his tendency to sock puppet, nor his meandering, incredibly verbose style of writing, however his ability to identify solutions that maximize consumer utility contra establishment interests is indisputable.
I don't think he knows, let alone cares to know, his measured IQ. The concept of an IQ score is so narrow as to be meaningless. I can assure you, however, that the denizens of various corners of the internet wildly overestimate its actual value. |

197 sentence, very pensivian.
Pensive is more self-aware than he gets credit for. He's a social 3/10 because of what is probably autism but he does his best work when he pretends to be a 0/10 and uses it to fuck people up. |

Date: July 1st, 2024 12:31 AM Author: Peckerwood (If I May, tp) My understanding is that Pensive and Graham each have a mutual, if begrudging, respect for the other. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5548328&forum_id=2...id#47796525) |
