The education system is designed to pound all the pegs into round holes, nicely conforming round holes BUT for those of us who weren't round pegs it was a real struggle.
They tried to pound me into one of their holes and I just kept burning down their hammers, so they sent me to a 'special, independent school' so I could learn on my own. Tip and a nod to the other survivors out there, it's more than any kid should be put through.

Not fond of assholes that deface property. I try to imagine them getting sprayed in the face with their own paint... (Being a victim doesn't give one license to victimize others).

Banksy feels your pain.

"dodging hammers", hard to do all the time but..

Word of advice, don't dodge hammers, hit them hard before they can hit you, speaking from experience.
My IQ is 138 +/- and I wasn't particularly bright in my Special School, the Administration just got tired of having their hammers having nervous breakdowns. 😉

@SnowyOwl i was rather successful with dodging hammers. sorry about your IQ.

@hankster we all have our burdens in life, being pretty clever would be easier if there weren't so many dumbasses in this world but we do our best. 🙂

@SnowyOwl true. smart is not always what it's cracked up to be. Of course nothing is except our first b'day cake perhaps.

@hankster Grew up in a JW home so my first BDay cake was when I was 18 years old, quite party and most of it wound up on people's faces or on the ceiling. lol
