Quote from: "Tanker"
Quote from: "ShyFrog"The problem with intelligence is that 80% of this country, it could just be high school, acts like they are an idiot because intelligence is "uncool".
      This thinking along with general conformity has taught me to just hate people in general, unless they show that they can hold a conversation without bringing up penis size or how much they can bench-press.

I wouldn't have wanted to be raised where the reverse is true, like Japan. School for 8-10 hours a day 6 days a week with 3-5 hus of homework a night. Then the rediculous amount of stress they put on getting good grades and getting into a good college. I saw a documetary a few years about it, crazy. Thier suicide rate for trivial things like a B grade and not making honor roll is nuts.

Just an example that too much of a good thing is bad. I remember my brother's japanese room mate had a panic attack for getting an A- in his Spanish class. He acted like it was this horrible grade. That shit isn't healthy!
