User ID: 33106931 United States 05/28/2022 02:31 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I guess it is just me and my learning style. Quoting: Moonpie 79261622 Every single thing I've learned has been from books. And I guess I can say some videos now in the computer age. But...a teacher in a school? That was a complete waste of years of my life. If they had given me the book and told me what chapters to read and given me the test, I would have had no problems. In Math, I think teachers actually hurt my ability to learn because Math is conceptual and some halfwit using language to explain it is of no use. I say this because I think its time to get rid of the Public School system, which is a 19th century 'progressive' idea. It was meant for non-diverse societies where it was assumed every child was (and should be treated) exactly the same. Why does some like me have to listen to a 2nd rate turd babble for 45 minutes about something I could just read and take a test on. I can only learn from my mistakes and so far I haven't made any. Someone once gave me a Bible and told me to take it seriously. I told them to get fucked, have you any idea of the life I have lead? As Confucius says “Real knowledge is to know the extent of one's ignorance.” |

I also discovered the library and started reading like mad. To escape mentality. Total strangers influenced my life more than any teacher or family members. The had totally different experience, knowledge and values. People get trapped belonging and being loyal to clicks, family, churches, etc, For any question, problem you could force yourself to come up with 10-30 different answers, solutions or variations. The average Moron jumps and locks in on the 1st simple, easy, cheap answer and wonders why they have such a damn screwed up life! They are reacting and lazy mentally. Living totally out of Habit. Humans have zero instinct. My German Shepard are smarter than most damn people. |

The school of Hard Knocks is about to teach you a few rememberable moments! Fasten your seat belt and hang on. You are entering the Twilight Zone and going for the ride of your life, sonny. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 79966791 You must be one of these POS teachers! Most are there for the paycheck and could give a fuck about the students. Treat me good, I'll treat you better. Treat me bad, I'll treat you worse. Trump WON the 2020 election. If you believe Biden won, you're an Idiot! If you got the vaxx, stay the fuck away from me. |

Quoting: Lost Pottawatomi yeah. This is my point exactly. thanks. I think I'm making the exact opposite point. There is much to observe about mathematical function in the behavior of a boomerang. But I went to a very unusual school. Nothing shall be so certain as to permit confusion. |

Almost 50 years later I still remember them well.. The influence they had on my future learning. Not sure if I was just lucky or maybe so long ago it was all different. I am leaning to the latter. Very thankful for the past people in my life |
