More on education
If I ever get to be a famous writer, I'm going to be the last person you'd want to come talk at any school, because first school event I got invited to, I'd get up to the lectern and say "You know why you kids hate school so much? Because you came into it bright eyed and curious, burning to learn things, only to find yourself in an education system that actively destroys that curiosity by taking a big fat dump on your creativity, discouraging your dreams, and then utterly failing to teach you anything at all. The majority of teachers don't have the faintest idea how to actually teach their subject to anyone at all, and if you don't get what they're saying and you tell them you don't get it, they'll just say the exact same thing all over again with slightly different words. Because most teachers in public schools couldn't even teach a thirsty man how to drink water.
"And college is more of the same, except then you have to pay for it, and contrary to what you may have been told, college doesn't guarantee you a job, and is an utter waste of time unless you're going to be a doctor, a nurse, a lawyer, or an academic. Save your money and your time, don't go to college. In fact, drop out of school and get your GED. Use the free time to go to a library and learn things on your own time, it'll be much more effective than continuing to rot your brain in this hellhole.
"And remember, kids: if you're too exhausted from this nonsense called school to try to rekindle your desire to learn new things, you can always become a cop! Because cops are some of the stupidest people alive, and the IQ requirement is so low to be a cop that the average person is too intelligent to be hired on as a cop."
