I was a nerd in junior high. Life sucked and I wanted to die. Life got better in 11th grade when I got to spend the last 2 years of high school in college. Then I went to real college after that. Life's pretty cool now. It's actually fun.
Anyway, I say this because Adam points to an explanation of why junior high is so hard on nerds. I read the whole thing, but I don't know why Adam says I "won't like the tone of the article." What's up, Adam?
Maybe I should have just emailed adam, instead of posting. But I think the "Life sucked and I wanted to die," line was pretty funny anyway.

I guess I was sorta thinking of the time you responded to a cmu CS bboard (which I didn't read, but heard about later) basically telling people why they were a bunch of idiots for being elitist about windows. I agree, seeing as how most of the cs hotshots at CMU probably wouldn't have been hotshots without a little MS GUI in their lives. [at present, this hilarious post can be found at this url, tho I recommend downloading your own copy for archival purposes: http://www.contrib.andrew.cmu.edu/~dr4b/quotes.html if you search on "ebold" - I shall take this time to note that ethan's blogging software stripped out my html code which actually made that a link, so blame your carpal tunnel on him]
I'm not sure what that has to do with the style of the article, but I'm too lazy to actually re-read it or remember who you are.
