18. The highest IQ ever recorded was 285. So yours couldn't be that high.

6. Not so much stupid...
...as so much, I dunno, credulous? To be able to buy Morrison's crypto-mystical druggy tripe as being somehow deep?

Frankly, I prefer the Cowsills.

10. I love the Doors
And my IQ tested out at over 160. And I slept on Morrison's grave.

(But I was pretty high at the time.)

Khash.

12. I've never slept on Morrison's grave
but my IQ is considered to be well above average(not saying what it is but let's say it got me teased on a regular basis and ridiculed at home).
I'm a huge Doors fan, even though my IQ is not on the low end of the spectrum. Then again, I also used to do alot of acid. Maybe acid trips level out IQ levels.

14. I've been there but didn't sleep on it
I did stand in a cold rain and watch some unwashed Frenchmen do the same.

It was enlightening.

26. It was cold as hell
snow on the ground...

But people had left enough bourbon on his grave to keep me warm through the night.

Khash.
(do you go to hell for drinking a dead man's bourbon?)

They still rock harder than most of the shit that passes for rock music these days!

28. Jim Morrison was a genius and an idiot, an 'artist' and a poseur, a poet
and a pretentious hack. On balance, he was something very special and much of the Doors' music holds up after all these years. You don't have to buy into alleged depth of lyrics to appreciate the sound and feel. And, yeah, he did have some interesting lyrical moments. Stuff like "The End," "Riders On The Storm," and more pop-friendly things like "Light My Fire" and "Hello, I Love You" are great songs. I wonder what would have been had Jimbo lived past 27...I wonder if he ever could have lived past 27.

33. Not all Doors fans are stupid.
But the smart ones are definitely a tiny minority. Jim Morrison was a dork.

34. I'll say this for the doors.

At least when they decided that they wanted to rip off some songs, they had good enough taste to go with the works of Bertolt Brecht. Mahogany songs are some cool shit.
