He's autistic. He's not envious at all. He just doesn't listen. I hang out with him at lunch and I'll say,"You wanna come play laser tag this weekend after exams are done." He'll reply, "I can't, have to start studying for the next semester." " I learn so much from you on how to work hard and apply myself instead of being bored with school. Maybe you should learn something from me and if you relax just for 2-3 hours, you'll be a lot more productive. The reason I beat you in my SAC scores even though I never used to study at all is because I listen to others and they all help me. So really I'm applying collective knowledge to my paper, including how to study hard which you teach me. You on the other hand never listen. If you don't change, your not going to get as good a score as you should. Just listen to me for once." "So many people have tried to change me, but it doesn't work. I'm still me. You can't change me"
Honestly that's almost perfect transcript of our dialogue.
Russ, Mensa is stupid. My father went to 1-2 meetings and has never returned. It's good because his first boss in this country talked about Mensa for some fateful reason and my father explained to him that he got in, he was subsequently hired.
