So instead of promoting more sane discussion in class you just ignored it and took the diploma? How does smoking away our dissent make things better long term?
You can not cure stupid. I tried and tried and tried in grade school (1st grade teacher Mrs Whitehead was a saint), middle school and decided F it in high school. (I am talking about the damned teachers) I never studied in school.
My damned roommate after graduation kept going on about how hard the series seven was going to be and that was the first time I studied. His stock brokerage firm had sponsored him for 6 months to study. The “You think I can’t pass that” argument was 3 days before the test. I said fine, hand me the study guides. My score actually beat his by 4 points.
For me it was boredom prevention. You do not want someone like me bored. Trust me.
