I don't like the Mode of your speech. I think you are Mean and this falls well below the Average expected on Hacker News.

Specifically for the IQ, isn't the average designed to be the median? It's a normal distribution after all.

There's no reason an IQ couldn't be negative. Granted, I don't think the IQ test is properly calibrated for this and I don't think real world data perfectly fits the bell curve as designed, so it's kind of moot point.
