IQ, as measured by the Mensa test, refers to specific intellectual skills like logical and mathematical perception. If I said that I got a high score on the mensa test, "without being prompted", I could say I was only showing off my academic potential.
Ridiculously on topic.

I didn't take offense. Nothing you said was offensive, just irritating. I think you're a tool for talking about it, as if people care. Unprompted, you mentioned that you were higher than the top 2%, and a member of mensa. You're full of yourself, and that number contributes to it, which is what I was saying.
