Oh Ronald…why do our discussions always snowball out of control? You write one line…I write two. I write two pages…you write an autobiography. =P Now I have to write a novel ( Read more... )

Don’t worry though you will fulfill your role. Your role is to be like every other person who sits there with a thumb up his or her ass THINKING that their way is right until their environment smacks them in the face. What you aim to be is simply what I’d become if I failed in life. How do I know I’ll succeed? Well I plan to never give up giving whatever lucks modifier is a real run for its money in terms of my success. So, I took lessons from Hitler… Did you completely miss the part about using the power to change the world for GOOD? Knowing you, I wouldn’t put it past ya. Yes yes, I know “the road to hell is paved with good intentions,” you engineers all love this one. My solution? I plan to stop paving if shit starts getting hotter, rethink and then reapply my efforts. Tell me Phil, how can I change the world without the things I listed off? Don’t go dribbling on your shirt now damnit this is an easy one! You and your children will be a product of everything I have to say and your grandchildren as well. I’m full of myself? That is correct, I am arrogant. The difference between us is that my arrogance is deserved while yours is merely claimed. Yes I know I know nothing but that didn’t turn my brain into mush like it apparently did in your case. While you’ve been having an “unproductive” summer I’ve been getting my hands “wet” with what you aimed at being, academia. I write, I read, and I study the business world. I’ve interned twice now with the first being $28 bucks an hour running a service department and the second one? Well looky here…teaching college students. Don’t worry though Phil because I’ve never seen an engineer amount to much more than a lab rat even if it drives a jag.
Phew, thank God I don’t need your approval and that your words have little effect on me. I’d have been up shit’s creek without a paddle after you railed into me. I mean, people (unfit teachers) with Doctorates I brush off and here you are telling me a pile of shit that maybe you thought I’d accept? You who hasn’t the SLIGHEST fucking idea how the Business world works? Give me a fucking break. Sorry King Phil, your jurisdiction kind of ends right at the tip of my erected middle finger. Luckily for me, during my sophomore year I scored a 212 on the IQ test we take in MAPS and ever since then I’d been under close vigil by the business school. That’s another undisclosed fact. They too thought that because I had this amazing score I was worth a damn.

So I took it over and over driving it as low as 40 just to make them understand. I know I know, you take everything with a grain of salt so here, I took the national one for you.

Congratulations, Ron! You are a Top Scorer!
Your IQ score is 127
This number is based on a scientific formula that compares how many questions you answered correctly on the Classic IQ Test relative to others.

Your Intellectual Type is Word Warrior. This means you have exceptional verbal skills. You can easily make sense of complex issues and take an unusually creative approach to solving problems. Your strengths also make you a visionary. Even without trying you're able to come up with lots of new and creative ideas. And that's just a small part of what we know about you from your test results. Read more...

Hah, 8 minutes later and I’m a “top scorer” who qualifies for other tests… Betcha wouldn’t know it just by looking at me huh? How many other people far smarter than me did this system destroy? I thought I had one pegged for sure but boy have you proved me wrong. However, like any good teacher, I'll go the extra mile until you no longer wish to learn.

Oh, and about your analysis of the situation. Everything YOU have said, someone has said, and they’ve said it fucking better. Everything YOU have done and WILL do (if you stick to your guns about being comfortable) someone has already done and BETTER. Everything you’ve ever thought of someone has already thought of and HAS exerted more effort in that than you ever have and ever will. YOU are the one with NOTHING to offer because you are in the middle of the bell curve. No one will care what YOU have to say because they have all said and done it before. Frankly, if I lived like that (and I have) I wouldn’t give a rat’s ass either. No? You’ve lived your life according to a mold that society has for you. Would you dare say that you are better than every other fucking person who has settled for society’s mold or mediocrity as I like to call it? I think not. Perhaps you’ll say that society is so powerful that no one in their damn minds can impact it. WHERE THE FUCK DO YOU LIVE!? Even though I doubt you will fail in your own life economically, every other person who has believes whole-heartedly, exactly what you do. If I really am “like a father before my time” then you would be the “ignorant son who has to learn with time that the father is right.” Perhaps in your own experiences, a backlash means its time to give up. Ben Fold’s and you think alike because you refuse to raise your head above the glass ceiling. No Phil, I’m not smarter than you I just tend to apparently use my brain and exercise my mind a tad bit (extreme understatement) more than you. I said on your wall that you are lazier than I in theory just not in execution for good reason. You can stop when you want to, this is what I do and besides, don’t kid yourself, you could never keep up. Are your eyes open yet?

P.S. Nobody has bigger guns than me, remember that.

It’s going to be pretty easy to drag a willing me to the Gym but I plan on being in there very early. I’ve decided to clean up my act. That’s right, I’m not 6 months from the real world, and I’m in the same program you are in. In January, I will STILL BE IN SCHOOL. When I’m done with my MBA, I plan to be working for Mr. Gates and Warren Buffet’s (the second richest man in the world whose own father told him a version of what you said to me) organization that’s all about changing you guessed it, Education and Parenting.
