          n. A person whose IQ lies between 45 and 59. Slightly stupider than a retard (60-69) but still smarter than an idiot (below 45).

              This refers to 90% of the population and there inability to make logical and common sense decisions.

              The only way to deal with this is to treat everybody as a moron till proven otherwise.

              How? Explain things to them like you would a child and hope they dont make a mistake

                Intelligence Quotient Scale:
                Moron = 50-69
                [Imbecile] = 30-49
                [Idiot] = 29

                  Moron was originally a scientific term, coined by psychologist Henry Goddard from a Greek word meaning foolish and used to describe a person with a genetically determined mental age between 8 and 12 on the Binet scale. It was also once applied to people with an IQ of 51-70 and was a step up from imbecile (IQ of 26-50) and two steps up from idiot (IQ of 0-25). The word moron, along with retarded and feeble-minded (among others), was once considered a valid descriptor in the psychological community, though these words have all now passed into common slang use, exclusively in a detrimental context.

                          Someone who, in [submitting] [an urban dictionary] [entry], doesnt quite get the concept that you are trying to define something, not make an argument in favor of it or write a commercial for it.

                            Someone that refuses to read the above statement:
                            [Dont name your friends]. Well reject [inside jokes and definitions naming non-celebrities].
                            But still writes their boyfriends/girlfriends and/or [best friends] name. Usually starts an entry with The most amazing person youll ever meet!

                            Makes it very annoying for those of us that screen through these entries.
