See what I mean? That was me suggesting you ask that question, in the future...

In academia, argumentation centers around a proposition. If you make an inaccurate proposition, P, and I provide a refutation of P then the debate ends there. If you choose to "develop" your proposition, to Q, that's fine, but it isn't part of the original debate, and I don't have to get involved in the presentation of Q.
You seem to misunderstand this, too. The issue is not "If P then Q." The issue is, "If P1, P2, P3, P4, then Q1, and Q2." You have a hard time following the logic for all of that. The fact that you've stated the above is further telling of what I said, here:

I know from our past conversations that you've had issues following points. It looks like you've addressed this cognitive dissonance by trying to place the blame on me instead of owning your weaknesses.
In any arguments you and I have had, your problems were the inability to think outside of "Astner Linearity"* and the ability to follow points as they develop. So, naturally, you would have a problem making the connections from one of my points to the next: your history shows that this is a problem for you. But, instead of blaming others for that, own your weaknesses and liberally admit to them. People would respect you more.
Basically, you keep providing examples of exactly what I'm talking about.

So it's not that I can't follow your propositions as they "develop," it's that I choose not to, because my intention wasn't to prove you wrong, it was to prove your proposition wrong.

2. You just did the thing I said you do and are oblivious...which is hilarious.
And here is that thing I said you do:

This has to be one of the worst attempts of pseudo-psychology I've ever seen. In more extensive projects it's standard to explore facets of a problem that ultimately won't lead to the information you want.
1. One of the worst attempts, eh? "The lady doth protest too much, me thinks."
2. This is, again, applicable:

And what is the thing I said you do? You just cannot follow the logic. It just doesn't click with you. This is not a pseudo-psychology assessment: not even close. This is me telling you that based on how poorly you cannot follow the logical discourse in a discussion because of how linear your thinking is, there's no way you did not waste many hours in you academic endeavors because of this clear problem you have.

You might as well have said, "I'm pretty sure you've been wrong sometime in your life..."
That's not at all what I said. You, yet again, demonstrate that you lack even a basic understanding of my points. Most of the points you make are mildly non sequitur to the points I make...and it is not just me: it is with many people you interact with. To directly address what you've stated, you admitting that you've been wrong before in your life has very very little to do with these statements of mine:

*...this has caused problems in your academic endeavors and you've wasted many hours exploring the wrong path on a problem.

I'm perfectly fine with IQ.
That does not seem to be the case:

As far as I'm aware no school of thought in Psychology recognizes the legitimacy of an IQ test as a credible measurement of cognitive abilities.
Originally posted by Astner
It is non-scientific because it's a test score that doesn't reflect what it's suggested to reflect. Moreover, the largest and most comprehensive MRI study ever conducted in the field of neurobiology suggests that the very idea that intelligence can be measured with a single number is wrong, source.

Furthermore I've not taken an IQ test, so your entire argument breaks down then and there. All I did debating Oneness was to provide evidence for why the concept of IQ is non-scientific.
Since I've proven that you are a liar, the fact that you deny taking any sort of IQ test is not going to be entertained. Your derision over IQ tests and your hatred of them is a bit too strong for a psychology layman.
To keep it short and sweet: you're a proven liar, you have taken an IQ test and your complaints about the IQ tests are because of those results, and you are butthurt about the results because they do not match up with the perception of your own intelligence.

Now when I've explained that, you don't have to bother responding because at the time you finish reading this you'll be on my Ignore List.
You've threatened or stated this no less than 3 times in the past. Yet, every time, I'm not on your ignore list. Additionally, any time you have threatened this, it is due to me pointing out where your inability to follow logic or conversation has created problems.
Here are other issues you need to explore:
1. You're socially inept. But you're inept on purpose. You know what you say/write is not acceptable behavior for an adult but you choose to do it anyway. This kind of arrogance is actually revealing of your immaturity. It will take some growing up for you to check that huge ego and reel in the arrogance.
2. The previously mentioned logic problems that you have. That is not easily fixed. When someone tells you that you're not getting it, that should be your cue that, perhaps, you should reassess what they are saying and your position. See if you are not following their logic very well.
3. Arithmetic - Simple math seems to escape you. Go back to the basics. Improve your arithmetic.
4. Eat more healthily and exercise more: you are a bag of bones.
5. Get more sun: you are probably not getting enough sunlight. You need sunlight for vitamin D production.
