When in doubt, send a few guys through the door with a loaded shotgun. Easy words, and you can always edit them out later.

@mdk

Hard to do that when it's in a Navy hospital.

@RomanAria

Why are all of you people accomplishing real things that matter?

@ayzrules

My best friend is going to a boarding school D.C. that was founded for the sole purpose to training people to become senators and governors. Being an assistant in the Senate is a required activity there, and only two people from our school are allowed to go. Meanwhile, I'm over here, not even being in a club.

[RomanAria]

@ayzrules I'm fourteen and a half, not fifteen. And I'm applying to college because I'm a senior in high school.
@keyguyperson I'm trying to accomplish things because I'm worried about succeeding in the real world?

That's what I'm still thinking.

[RomanAria]

@RomanAria

*slowly sinks more into simple potato existence*

I don't even think they let people do that here lmao

[mdk]

For a minute there I thought I was pretty smart.

[Keyguyperson]

@RomanAria

I was in the advanced class in Middle School, and thought I was pretty smart. Then I got to High School and the freshmen were taking calculus. And now someone younger than me is going into college. The only reason I haven't yet dropped out of high school out of shame is the fact that there are really stupid people I know who know less than me.

@mdk

I'm sorry that you all feel emasculated by a 14 year old girl who will be a freshman in college next year.

"τούτου μὲν τοῦ ἀνθρώπου ἐγὼ σοφώτερός εἰμι· κινδυνεύει μὲν γὰρ ἡμῶν οὐδέτερος οὐδὲν καλὸν κἀγαθὸν εἰδέναι, ἀλλ᾽ οὗτος μὲν οἴεταί τι εἰδέναι οὐκ εἰδώς, ἐγὼ δέ, ὥσπερ οὖν οὐκ οἶδα, οὐδὲ οἴομαι" (Plato's Apology of Sokrates, 21d).

[RomanAria]

@Dedonus
...
I only believe that I know what my teachers have professed to teach me; if it is anyone's fault for my lack of wisdom, it must be theirs. For teachers believe themselves to know things; they must, to be accepted in their profession, because a professor who would not profess would be, in short, worthless. And do the best students not emulate the behaviors they see from their teachers? Surely it is not the fault of the student, then, when they inherit the "wisdom" (and foolishness) of their dear professors.

@Dedonus

Emasculated? No sir! I feel esmartulated, that's all.

sidenote -- 10.5k. A wild character development appeared, and I like it. Action break until tomorrow probably, which is great, because more words tomorrow.

[WilsonTurner]

...

Be nice, @RomanAria.

In the meantime...

@Dedonus

Wait...

I've had the wrong definition of "emasculated" in my mind this whole time?!
