It’s not though. But I like your take on it, except you butchered it lol
I’m absolutely loving the irony of someone calling George Carlins comedy anti intellectual, using a math joke as evidence, and completely missing the joke. 🤯
The joke isnt about people being perceptibly below average, or it’s not just about that, it’s a fucking math joke. That’s how averages work, not medians. In a scenario where the average IQ were 200, and half the world was 199.999, and the other half was 200.001, half the people would be dumber than average.

In a scenario where the average IQ is 200? Do you understand what you’re talking about? You realize that the majority of people are exactly average, right? No? Then I guess Carlin is for you.

I threw a number that you couldn’t argue was anything other than theoretical, but go off I guess haha. And I gave you a scenario where the decimal places could be argued are so inconsequential and could be considered exactly average, and yet you completely disregard the point because I guess it’s inconvenient to you lol.
I’ll have to agree, that I guess since I can understand at least an elementary school level math joke and a play on words, Carlin is for me. And since it’s going right over your head, you may be more entertained by Cocomelon or something.
