    I didn’t have friends in school. Hell, because of my undiagnosed autism and untreated trauma, I didn’t even have peers.

        I had that experience in school. Even in college people would invite me to their dorm and put me in strange situations just to see how I would react. They didn’t know anyone else like me.

        Felt like being in a zoo. Or a circus. It was nice to be sought out, though. And they were clueless kids, so I try to not hold a grudge about it.

    Most people hate school. Even the “smart kids”, what they really like is learning or knowledge, not school.

    School was great. Short days, long lunch and breaks. Loads of holidays. Had an hour of exercise thrown in every few days. Loads of people to talk to. Different things to learn.

    Hated certain classes and hated being a child at times.

    Last couple of years of highschool was awesome. Dropped all the shit classes, people suddenly treated you better because you was a young adult had even more time off! Like fuck 3 hours of work a day was unreal. (Where is our reduced workforce efficiency gains!)

    But I agree with the other guy uni was much better. More drinking, more fucking more independence. Uni was the dream.

    This meme is completely unrelatable.

    I hated school.

    I never sat in the back of a classroom dying of laughter with friends.

    i accidentally picked the gayest high school to go to and even coming out as trans in my last year didn’t cause me any troubles. even the old teachers who never saw a trans person (that they knew was trans) before me did their best to respect my pronouns and identity without judgement. and all that in Poland, a country not exactly famous for being inclusive.

    but i got insanely lucky, school can be tough. my heart goes all to those who’s joy of learning got dulled by others
