You are not exceptional. Contrary to what your u9 soccer trophy suggests, your glowing seventh grade report card, despite every assurance of a certain corpulent purple dinosaur, that nice Mister Rogers and your batty Aunt Sylvia, no matter how often your maternal caped crusader has swooped in to save you… you’re nothing special.I like this guy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JStump Posted June 11, 2012 Report Share Posted June 11, 2012 He is completely right, graduating high school means nothing anymore. Every kid that shows up to class the 12 years required gets one and you realize this once all the grad parties are over and it comes time to go to college or find a job, he is just letting them know in advance.

At least that's what my parents told me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
