We Quit Cigarettes

[Conan]

You'd really hate The Silmarillion, then. That's basically just a bunch of songs.

Gross. I'd totally hate it.
I honestly don't read much anymore. I used to read a lot. I still like murder trash or horror for the beach and such, but I have a hard time sitting still long enough to read. I very much prefer watching television. I LOVE tv.

Does someone get sick in this one? He isn't allowed to read about illnesses.

, yeah, a whole bunch get sick.

You do, you competitive little brat. I still can't believe how far ahead of me you got in Criminal Minds.

I wish I didn't have a V / NV discrepancy, maybe then I'd be better at math, LOL.

What is this code for Dr. C?

You have got to finish school so you can become a real doctor to help save real Ebola people.

I can not believe you want him to read that.



I'm dying.

Use a calculator.

Mental math has more to do with working memory and processing speed, IMO.

Hey. I sucked at math when I was your age. I still do—it doesn't mean I don't enjoy it. Simply being too stubborn to quit will get you far, much farther than an innate ability will.

You're right, but a relative weakness can still feel very crippling, even if it the weak area isn't considered particularly weak normatively.

I don't have a clue what processing speed means.
Does that make me a retard?

I think he might actually enjoy reading it.

NO...
He will convince himself he has it.

Verbal and nonverbal cognitive ability, NV has more to do with nonverbal reasoning and solving problems without words, etc. I was only 79th percentile NV. The test didn't have a spatial subtest, though, so it's possible that I am stronger in that domain, but I don't have enough information to make a conclusion, since later testing was botched due to the sleep disorder.

Also, I wouldn't want to be a medical doctor, LOL. I'm more interested in research.

No, LOL. https://www.understood.org/en/learn...issues/processing-speed-what-you-need-to-know
