Background

For the longest time, I kind of wondered what was special about me. You know how when you’re a kid everyone tells you that you’re special, unique and that there’s no one else in the world like you? Yeah, by the time I was five, I think I figured out that wasn’t the case.

I was placed into the “gifted” programs of ye olde schools which is pretty much like taking a kid and putting them into detention. See, public schooling just isn’t generally equipped to deal with kids who are better than mediocre – oh, I’m not being modest, don’t mind me – and instead spend more of your wonderful tax dollars bringing “intellectual delicacies” to the worst and the mentally retarded. While it’s called No Child Left Behind now-days, they just called it “being helpful” in the 80’s and 90’s.

Another problem with putting the kid-geniuses into special classes is that it winds up getting them targeted by the ghetto-ass children who’s mothers smoked so much crack, you can see the whites of the kids’ eyes were born that pissy yellow color. Okay, maybe I’m bitter. It’s always a great thing when you get older and you watch all those dips get jailed for stupid shit.

So you’ve probably already determined two things about me. One, I obviously think I’m intelligent, though from the writing here that remains to be seen. Two, I obviously think very little of the social constructs of what’s basically adopted communism practices under the guise of “social equality” and winds up being pernicious social engineering philosophy.

Meek people make great workers and underlings, but they definitely don’t fucking inherit the earth of whatever the hell that saying goes. Instead, it’s left up to the people who’re not afraid to call someone an idiot to their face, and the people who aren’t so caught up in political correctness to right what’s going on. Good thing I don’t subscribe to any kind of political party system, huh? My political career’d never make it off the ground, I’d get eaten up!

But yeah, anyway, so I wound up with full scholarship into Georgia Tech for Computer Sciences. I think the most fun I had was dealing with what’s generally called “Bio-Batteries”. Now, the majority of the scientific work I had nothing to do with, but I was part of the team under Thad Starner’s group on the computer-side. While we were there, we were working on the small electrical “battery” that stored energy by stealing trace amounts of glucose from your system. Basically, it’s your futuristic bio-implants’ humble beginnings.

Of course, I’m not going to take the credit for that really, since I just handled the electrical and computer side. Well, like I said, part of the team.

Annnnyway. After I got shafted by the “team” (you know, those team projects never work out) I got pretty disenchanted with the whole college thing, dropped out. Got a half-job waitressing, which paid enough in tips to make it month to month with a little extra. A grand a month extra seems like a lot until you realize some of these hundred grand a year jobs could have been yours, then you kind of get pissed off about it.

So that’s me, right now, in a nutshell. I’m a unique snowflake, just like everyone else.
