I have this super awesome friend, Clifford. Srsly. One of the dankest people I know. He tokes like a madman and can pass a joint while having an intense conversation about Quantum Theory like no other. All of my close friends hate everyone they know, and Cliff is no exception. And he has the most severe rages. Ever.
Take a sample, why don’t you:
mmlxxxiv says:
Oh, god, can I rage for a second? I mean, I have been pouring out these things you have no concern for, but you seem to be at least pretending to tolerate it
Pesky meddling dacoda. says:
Go for it! I love when people rage
mmlxxxiv says:
FUCK
I hate this school
I’m ranked 3rd in my class
3RD!
The FUCK is that?!
Here’s my rant:
Pesky meddling dacoda. says:
I just said third out loud in a high voice out of shock!
go on
mmlxxxiv says:
Haha
The public school system bases academic intelligence on a grade system that’s generated by work
That’s an obvious point
You do work, you turn it in, it’s converted into grades and thus class rank
Unweighted grades, there’s about four in my class with 4.0 GPAs
Weighted, the fucking CUNTS that do extra-credit in the AP classes
allow two of them (not surprisingly enough the son of a teacher and the daughter of another teacher)
to be ahead of me
now
Put this into relative intelligence
I scored 2030 on my first round of SATs
Comparitively
The No. 1 guy
big, fat, farmer FUCK
scored like 1310
Pesky meddling dacoda. says:
whoaaa
mmlxxxiv says:
Class rank is supposed to reflect intelligence
yet
it doesn’t
The public school system doesn’t reward intelligence
It rewards diligence
diligence easily instilled by tyrannical teacher/parents
(they learn with Jesus)
That bit was a tad convoluted
my point is
Two people can get a 4.0 in a class
one person has to work hard to get that 4.0
the other person, with more innate intelligence allowing him/her to achieve the same amount with less effort, gets that 4.0 also
While everyone and their grandmother is going to pour OH HE/SHE WORKED HARD AND DESERVES TO BE HIGHER
No, he/she worked hard inside of a flawed system that rewards you for filling out paperwork
I tried to make that a point, it just kept going
Here’s it in one phrase:
Innate intelligence should be considered superior to achieved intelligence
Wow, Cliff’s an asshole
Yeah
But it’s sort of logical
Would you want the guy that knew exactly what he was doing to design your building?
Or the guy that had to work hard to pass basic structural engineering 101?
Nig has some major points. For sure.

Or more, I refuse to deal with them. I don’t like insincerity, self-pity, hypocrisy, etc. Most often, as soon as I see such a quality in someone, I give them the cold shoulder. You become useless, because you can’t be relied upon. If you can’t take care of yourself and make good on your own word to better yourself, why should I believe anything you promise me? If you’re so unwilling to fix your own problems, I shouldn’t trust you with mine.
I hate giving my opinion, my rock solid and non-censored advice, to someone who seems so grateful at the time, and then have it be a matter of minutes before it’s out the window.
And I hate when I keep doing it over and over again. It will never be any different.
Dacoda.
