Is salty the brainiest boffin of 1ff?

[Red]

I've just learned that our very own Saltire has a degree in Astrophysics and advanced maths. Does this make him the brainiest 1FFer, or do you have something better than that? Maybe you've watched who wants to be a millionaire once and answered all the questions. Or perhaps you can even understand at least quarter of the fucking questions on University Challenge, let alone answer them.

I got a 2:1 in Social Policy, so Salty leathers me.

Saltys up there , but blade 1889 does something ridiculously clever in science . Herts wolf and paranoid pineapple also seem very bright .

Agreed. I think blade is doing something awesome not sure what it is though. I reckon his resemblance to Einstein also enhances the perception of him being boffinesque. He'll hopefully tell us what he's studying when he comes on. I do have one reservation about his intellect though.... he's from Yorkshire.

Yes Herts Wolf and the pineapple come across as highly intelligent beings.

The good Capt.

My other half is a statistics PhD and thinks the expression is "don't shoot a gift horse in the mouth", so it's no surprise to me that Saltire can be so clever but such a fucking idiot at the same time.

That's an absolute fucking lie! I am certainly not bright. Jesus. The fucking nerve of some people.

 

[sl1k]

Oooohhh. No wonder he's a bit of a space nerd ! Advanced maths too, so you'd think he'd be a rational and logical kinda guy.

But supports Liverpool

 

[Veggie Legs]

Applied maths isn't real maths, he's not that smart.

I think I'd pick Ian_Wrexham as the brainiest 1FF member.

Wow, I enjoy reading your posts and find them interesting . I certainly didn't mean to offend you at all .

Yeh....but...but....but....he's...you know..... Called Ian.

Three questions to settle this.
a) Which queen became the longest serving British monarch this week?
b) "Two little boys" was a hit song by which convict?
c) Which popular Messiah spent a lot of time sailing and hanging around with the lads in Galilee 2,000 years ago?
d) Which CD did Leon Clarke say he would hide from team mates when he was interviewed by the Wolves matchday programme editor in April 2014?

Appreciate these are tough questions but I have carefully worded them to avoid people just Googling the answers.

Right.

Queen's park Rangers?
Lester Piggot?
Captain Birds eye?
Skrewdriver's greatest hits?

To be fair...Salty would spell the word "just" correctly.

Only jus though.

If Saltire is the most intelligent member of this forum then we truly, truly need to have a long hard think about packing it all in and killing ourselves.

 

[Craig]

Do you have a degree in astrophysics Steven? didn't think so, now GTFO.

We won't need to. He'll kill us all with with the massive space gun he's going to make (if my understanding of what astro physicists do is correct)

We'll be alright, his hatred of "yanks" would almost certainly force him to funnel all of his research into a weapon designed purely to wipe Americans off of the face of the planet.

Where do I donate?

 

[HertsWolf]

For me, the name Salty jus conjures up an image of an honest sperm donor. No mo-wah, no less.

 

[HertsWolf]

Vauxhall employ astraphysicists. Is he one of them?

If I owned a Vauxhall dealer, I'd call all the mechanics astraphysicists and they could say like "I'll get one me astraphysicists to give your Adam a real probing, pet".

I know this is probably a 'that's the joke' moment, but it wasn't 3 it was 4 questions.

 

[JoeJoeJoeJoe]

Saltire was probably very intelligent when he did these degrees. Since then however his brain has been pickled in whisky.

 

[HertsWolf]

I know this is probably a 'that's the joke' moment, but iif it wasn't that was 4 questions.

See? That's me ruled out. Fucking told you. Anyway, I could only answer the fourth of the three.

Already exists. It's called 'irony'.

See what you mean shit at maths and general nollij. What was the CD btw?

There are 11 types of people in the world. Those that understand Roman numerals and those that don't.

 

[Alty]

People are intelligent in different ways, aren't they? It doesn't surprise me that Saltire's posts in the politics and football sections make him seem a complete plank when in fact he's extremely gifted in maths and science.

I have a PhD in Politics but am average at maths and fucking terrible when it comes to anything remotely technical.

If we're taking most intelligent to mean most persuasive/interesting to read...it's got to be Scummers, hasn't it? Paranoid Pineapple, Veggie Legs, SUTSS and Ebeneezer Goode are all good too. Ian_Wrexham is obviously a bright bloke too, although part of me thinks he's going mental. Everyone is a fascist now, apparently.
