    They got a perfect score on the SAT! Which means they exempted out of basic punctuation, grammar, and using words more descriptive than “thing” for the rest of their life.

      Just because someone sounds and writes stupid and says stupid things and hates books doesn’t mean they don’t get multiple choice stuff right

        Which is the reason the SATs are extremely mediocre at evaluating actual competency.

        There’s a big difference between being able to pick one of four definitions of a word and being able to read a sentence containing it without stopping for an hour.
