Chris could have an IQ as low as 85 and still be considered within "normal" range. Personally I think his is between 70 and 85, which puts him in the borderline intellectual functioning range, but above mental retardation. So he has cognitive impairments but is not mentally disabled (based on his intelligence alone).


Well, according to modern psychology there are between 7 and 12 different "kinds" of intelligence. Some folks would have an "IQ" of 140 in one kind of intelligence while having an "IQ" of 40 in another.

Like if we were to use the model posted here (http://skyview.vansd.org/lschmidt/Projects/The Nine Types of Intelligence.htm) I think here's how he'd stack up:


Howard Gardner's Nine Types of Intelligence

1. Naturalist Intelligence (“Nature Smart”) - Low.
2. Musical Intelligence (“Musical Smart”) - Average to Below-average. If he had more obvious OCD-ish traits he might make a fine drummer.
3. Logical-Mathematical Intelligence (Number/Reasoning Smart) - Slightly above average
4. Existential Intelligence - Barely even sentient.
5. Interpersonal Intelligence (People Smart”) - Abysmal.
6. Bodily-Kinesthetic Intelligence (“Body Smart”) - Below average.
7. Linguistic Intelligence (Word Smart) - Way above average, possibly close to a Savant. For all his other kinds of dumbness, he shows an obvious knack for wordplay, and has a much wider vocabulary than most other Lolcow-ish 'tardblossoms.
8. Intra-personal Intelligence (Self Smart”) - Barely even sentient.
9. Spatial Intelligence (“Picture Smart”) - Average to Below average.



IQ Tests mostly focus on math and language skills, kinda like an weirder version of the SAT; So when OPL takes an IQ test, it only shows that he can handle linguistic and math problems like a 12th grader, but doesn't show that he has the Spacial and Kinesthetic skill of a nine year old, and the interpersonal skills of an amoeba.
 
The psych evaluation only determined that Chris was not an immediate danger. He has the mind of a 5 year old. No A-Log, but there is no chance his IQ is anywhere near the normal range.
To expand a little on this, I think that he's regressing, because in my experience most tasks, be they mental, physical or some combination thereof, require practice or else you get worse at them. I know if I didn't practice reading and writing I'd probably be harder to understand, at a minimum.

Chris's problem is that he never practices much of anything in a meaningful way because he believes any amount of effort he expends is good enough, and since he therefore has nothing to improve on, he doesn't even stagnate, he declines. Truly hellish.

I think that is an extremely good evaluation of him. Although I don't know if I'd call old Mellow Yellow a linguistic savant. He does have an inclination towards wordplay, though.
 
Ok. Chris is below average on lots of things. Now is there anything else to say on the original topic other than that Chris gave up on the taint piercing?

You got a point. His wordplay is a hit and miss case. Best I would rate him is slightly above average. And he is below average when it comes to music. His singing is horrible.
 
Yeah Chris likes wordplay but I wouldn't say he's particularly clever with it.

Not really a savant dijo:
I learned that the Jerkop who arrested me was called Bagget (that was the only thing about the situation that was hilarious; replace the “B” with an “F,” and you can see how funny it was).

Also "Merried Seinor Comic." :\
 
Musician here. Chris really doesn't have any sense of rhythm, pitch, or melody, and certainly not harmony. I highly doubt that in his current state he could ever have the internal beat needed to be a drummer.
