That line is another common engagement hook. It’s designed to make you think there’s a clever “life hack” or hidden trick coming next.
Usually, when posts say things like:
“I have to admit, the person who came up with this trick has an incredibly high IQ”
…it’s followed by something very simple, misleading, or exaggerated, such as:
- a basic cleaning tip
- a well-known household trick
- a rebranded common-sense idea
- or sometimes something that doesn’t really need “high IQ” at all
So the “high IQ” claim is just emotional bait to increase curiosity and clicks, not an actual measure of intelligence.
If you share the full trick, I can tell you whether it’s actually clever or just recycled internet content.
