Does PH make your cleverer?

[GTIR]

I'm sure my grammar (and spelling of grammar) have improved over the years and my general knowledge has also benefited from browsing these threads.

So do you think PH has made you brighter or know more stuff?

[Mr Will]

please tell me the thread title is intentional...

[elster]

I iz well smart now!

[Jonny671]

Yes.

My speeling and grammar is better from being on here, although I don't think my work rate has improved..

clever =smart
cleverer = the person being smart

you want clevererer which is becoming more smart than the person what you was before

[okgo]

100% yes

[ShadownINja]

More knowledgeable, maybe?

[DangerousMike]

no.

obviously this depends on how intelligent (though I think what you might mean is "does PH make you more articulate?") you are to start with. I would consider myself slightly cleverer than the average PHer... so although I don't get a personal benefit from PHing I am happy to help all you thickos out.

Oh dear.

I think that you meant to ask "Does PH make you more clever?".


The answer is clearly "No".

It doesn't make us more intelligent per se, BUT it does keep the old grey matter going as it isn't quite so "dumbed down" as many websites are, and in the main posts are in English instead of whatever passes for English on many websites that look to me like I need an Enigma machine to decipher.

I certainly get a lot of my news information from this site, because I cannot bear to watch the BBC news anymore.

It's "more cleverer".

HTH.

more knowledgeable in certain areas, mainly wittier putdowns

[DangerousMike]

wittier putdowns like?

"... oxo tower?"

etc.

I'd hate to know what your less witty putdowns were

[maser_spyder]

Before - Genius.

Now - Genius + 'mental' + 335D (mapped) + OXO + MX5

So no, not really.

you're reading the wrong posters. try tonker's posts when he's in the zone.

[Poledriver]

Well, judging by how stupid some of the newbies first posts are, compared to the PH stalwarts, I'd say that spending time on PH is an education in itself!

[10JH]

I'd say it's taught me a fair bit. Mainly about some pretty geeky topics though!
