Mensa, the world’s oldest and most famous high-IQ society, announced today it will expand membership qualifications to now include individuals who possess the rare ability to “gleek.”
“Gleeking,” which occurs when saliva is propelled out of the mouth in a stream, is widely considered a natural talent nearly impossible to learn.
Long an exclusive club strictly for those who’ve attained a score within the upper two percent of the general population on an approved intelligence test, the decision by Mensa to embrace “gleekers” marks an long-overdue shift in its philosophy.
“Superior submandibular glands, albeit not as sexy as a 130 IQ, excites us very much,” Mensa Director Pratt Fayle said in a statement describing the rare skill.
“Mensa sees the act as more than just spitting,” he continued.
