That Fictional Bear IQ Scale in full
It bothered me that I referred to the Fictional Bear Scale of IQ (more properly known as "Pooh's Scale of Thickness") in that last post without actually linking to the list itself. After extensive googling, I realised that no-one has actually placed this information on line!!
So, after extensive Thought Research*, I've compiled the list in full:
Pooh's Scale of General Thickness
How to use this scale
Much like it's geological counterpart (developed by Frederick "Diamond Geezer" Moh) Pooh's Scale of General Thickness is based on comparison. If an individual is, say, thicker than Fozzie but cleverer than Paddingdon, he would be recorded as being about 3.5 on the Pooh's Scale.
So now you know.
*Philosophers use "thought experiments" in place of real experiments, I do "thought research" in place of real research. It's quicker and cheaper, and the results are often more impressive.
So, after extensive Thought Research*, I've compiled the list in full:
Pooh's Scale of General Thickness
- Gentle Ben - Pretty smart as bears go, but not one for higher thinking.
- Pooh - The original "bear of very little brain", but could talk, which is more than most bears.
- Paddington - Could dress himself, but frequently misunderstood situations.
- Fozzie - Failed continiously at stand-up, a profession requiring above-average wit and intelligence.
- Baloo - Overflowing with jungle-smarts, but lacking in basic knowledge about the human world.
- Yogi - "Smarter than the average bear", but only just.
- SuperTed - Teddy bear imbued with superpowers and above-average intelligence.
- Iorek Byrnison - Kick-ass armoured bear, skilled blacksmith, leader of his race... bit of a piss-head.
- Rupert - quite intelligent for a youth, but lacking the wisdom that comes with age.
- Smokey - visionary who spread the message of conservation and environmental responsibility before it was "cool".

*Groans*
He informed Starsky & Hutch what the word on the street was every week.
I'd place him somewhere below Yogi, at least he could survive on his wits.
I thought that you forgotten Fuzzy wussy, but then I thought: Fuzzy Wussy was a bear, Fuzzy Wussy had no hair, so he wasnt a fuzzy wussy was he?
