I used to drive the teachers crazy (Shout out to my 4th grade teacher Mrs Demaree. I actually was able to contact her years later and thank her. Havent gotten back in touch in even more years. But she was the only one who even bothered to try to get through to me.

That said, I drove them all crazy because I wouldn't give a crap about whatever they were up there talking about, or turning in homework - but when i had to do the standardized tests id always blow the other scores out the water. That showed i wasnt stupid i was just willing to sit there and pretend they were actually teaching me anything.

Public Education isnt about learning how to use your brain, its about learning to shut it off. It's not intellect its obedience. At least im old enough to have escaped that madness before they decided to change the one solid universal language and be like "yeah, we changed math...2+2=5 now. welcome to common core) and i wasnt demonized for being white yet lol

edit: I tend to not act like 35 isnt old but when im calling highschool seniors "children" yep ive gotten old. lmao
