      I’ll have you know I was extremely intelligent at 15. Tested genius levels, at least 95th percentile, probably as high as 98th.

      I was still an idiot kid.

        Do we make rules for the mainstream, or for the exceptional people?

        It’s neat you were so exceptional, but you could then understand rules weren’t made to keep you safe and that leading by example was your role.

      The older I get the more I realize everyone is an idiot. I’m an idiot, everyone I work with is an idiot. Politicians are idiots. Celebrities are idiots. Old, young, doesn’t matter. We all float down here and you will all get treated like the idiot I am 🙃
