Original Title: TIL: There were 2 studies in a scientific journal with over 1000 participants that shows that the art of "bullshitting" correlates with higher intelligence. Subjects were asked to lie about their expertise in fake fields and those who lied better scored higher on vocab, abstract reasoning, etc.
