Words Of Wisdom To All The High School Kids On The Bottom Of Their Social Heap.

You're the geeks, the losers. The chessplayers and the awkward ones. You're mocked because you like books more than footballs, art more than pom poms. Here's what you need to know.

Life is a horse race. And you my friend, are the horse here named "Mine That Bird." I've been around long enough now that I can tell you this is exactly how it goes down.

It should be noted that Mine That Bird is a gelding. :-)

I received an invitation to the 50th anniversary of my h.s. graduation. I decided to go the the Neuroscience Education Institute Conference instead of meeting people that I have not seen in 50 years. I share my exciting 50 years with real friends. I have done stuff that they could only dream about. As I am siting in the winning circle in my autumn years my message to them is fuck off.

That is EXACTLY how the shit goes down.

The Nerds end up ruling the world, if they can manage to survive till age 30 without killing themselves or collapsing in despair.

It's never been cool to be smart. I wasn't bullied in High School (thank GOD), but I definitely wasn't popular.

I escaped my shitty home town and now I'm a grad student in Manhattan and I'm free as the proverbial bird. The kids that were too cool to talk to me ten years ago are trapped losers reminiscing about their glory days as jocks.

I automatically distrust anyone who says they had a fantastic time in High School. Invariably, that means that they were a member of the torturing class.
