Sneaks Slip 'N Slang - RIQ
Origin: Stand-Up Comedy Subculture
Definition: Room Intelligence Quotient. The level of intelligence of an audience or group. Typically used as a pejorative term to indicate that you will have to do material that appeals to the lowest common denominator. Can be used in any group situation, especially business meetings.
Example: He spent his entire set doing West Virginia sister and wife jokes. That should tell you what the R.I.Q. is.
OR
Speak slowly when you give your presentation--I have a bad feeling about the R.I.Q.
