IQ-fluid

IQ-fluid (adj.): Describing a person whose effective intelligence and cognitive performance fluctuate significantly over extended periods of time — typically weeks, months, or longer — rather than just day-to-day. During high phases, they display very high-IQ traits like sharp reasoning, creativity, quick learning, and strong problem-solving. In low phases, performance drops noticeably with brain fog, slower thinking, and poorer decision-making.

These longer-term shifts can be influenced by nootropics, supplements, lifestyle changes, hormones, stress, mental health, or environmental factors. The term highlights real cognitive variability that traditional IQ tests (designed to measure stable traits) often don't capture.
"I've been super IQ-fluid this year — crushed a programming project in hyperfocus mode for two months, then spent the next month struggling to remember basic stuff after I stopped my nootropics stack."

"He's not inconsistent, he's just IQ-fluid. Give him the right supplements and sleep cycle, and he'll out-think everyone; mess that up and he forgets where he parked his car."

"A lot of people in biohacking communities are proudly IQ-fluid — they track their stacks and habits to ride the high phases and minimize the lows."

blinker fluid

A one-of-kind car part that only exists on the headlights of the first generation Dodge Viper. It's because this car uses unused BMW Z1 headlights with blinker fluids as BMW has once allowed Dodge to use these headlights on the Viper for free. Whereas, removing these blinker fluids costed Dodge $1.50 for each Viper.
I was shocked when my mechanic asked if I wanted him to top off the blinker fluid on my first-gen Dodge Viper—who knew it was a real thing?
