That girl sounds insufferable. Opportunities to justifiably shatter delusional people's realities don't come around often. He should capitalize on this, it is clearly a gift from the heavens.

I feel bad for the girl. When I was a teenager I had a superiority/inferiority complex about my intellect and got the ever-loving poo poo kicked out of me, rightfully so. It looks like this woman is going through something similar. No matter what form it takes the hammer is going to drop on her very hard and absolutely no one is going to have any sympathy.

I fell into that same trap too. When you're like 14-15 and a bunch of tests from the magic science men tell you you're in some top percentile of the population it's easy to start believing in your own superiority. And the only real cure for it is for everyone around you to drop your ego-inflated rear end like the dead weight it is. It absolutely sucks at the time because of course you're just oh so smart and all the normal apes around you will never understand but you come out a better person at the other end.

I had a friend like that in high school. Anytime somebody appeared smarter than him, got a higher grade, did better on the ACT, etc., he would have to justify it to everyone and make sure everyone knew the multitude of reasons why he wasn't the best. She got the scholarship because her mom knows the chancellor/his dad is a history teacher and helped him study but I had to study alone/she must have graded it wrong. What was funny is that he wasn't unusually smart either. He had a high GPA in high school and college but he couldn't necessarily apply it to real life situations.

I was the opposite. School testing and teachers taught me that I was naturally dumb as gently caress and bound to fail at anything that required mental skills. I got older and realized that the teachers were bitter and the classes were just boring. Those two above statements made for a real fun time when I made a higher score than him on the ACT. flick my Mr. Bean fucked around with this message at 19:23 on Oct 16, 2016 |

Most people will get over themselves when they run headfirst into the real world and realize they are not the Nietzschean ubermensch they thought they were. It sounds like the lady in this post has already run into that wall (having failed several courses) and just doubled down to protect her ego. She deserves whatever she has coming.

That's another thing that seems to happen by and large with the spectrum of nerds. They get told how "smart" they are as children and coast on the notion until they get to highschool and realize they're utterly average and it causes a massive identity crisis and they wind up sucking at everything forever after. No, I haven't been around these types of people many times before, why do you ask?Better Fred Than Dead posted:I don't feel any sympathy for the guy with the otaku gf because he's loving 30.

mind the walrus posted:I feel bad because this girl is in her early 20s, doesn't have a driver's license, and having trouble in University classes. When the bottom falls out she's going to get hurt a hell of a lot worse than a hormonal 16 year-old living at home with far fewer people willing to help her pick up the pieces. You kind-of expect that ego redefinition when someone is a teenager; when they're in their 20s no one gives a gently caress and she's going to have to work fast food for a few years just to break even. It's justifiable karma, I suppose, but in a way as tragic as someone falling into drugs or crime. She was probably coddled by her parents into learned helplessness.

Parents are the worst. Children are the worst. Girlfriends/Boyfriends are the worst. Husbands/Wives are the worst. Friends are also the worst. That's what this thread has taught me.

Speaking of super depressing r/relationships, is it possible to get a cache of posts on reddit? There is a brutal post (https://m.reddit.com/r/relationships/comments/4nj9ni/i_34m_am_a_recovering_alcoholic_who_has_been/4nj9ni) where a dude throws up in his nephew's coffin and I feel like it hasn't ever been posted in one of these topics, but the original post was deleted.

Jeep posted:Speaking of super depressing r/relationships, is it possible to get a cache of posts on reddit? You can try archivers like archive.org, google cache, and such. I've certainly failed before - apparently there was one where a guy asked his girl if he could buy some ferrets, she said firmly no, and he did it anyway. He bought them anyway, brought them home, she was pissed and posted on reddit. They told her to make him return them, and she said she couldn't do that, because they'd charge a 20% restocking fee, and that would be stealing. Sadly the thread is lost to time.
