When i heard that 50% of the people have an IQ below average, i was surprised. Since i needed 1 min to understand that this is simple logic and applies to every statement, i feel like i am one of them.

And the sad thing is that it’s not even necessarily true. A set of incredibly stupid people could lower the average by enough that more than 50% of all people would be above average intelligence. On the other hand a set of absolute geniuses could raise the average enough for more than 50% to be below average intelligence. But I guess it takes a “genius” (a.k.a. high-school graduate) to know the difference between median and mean.
