How Sebastian Hecks got bullied, got stamped and got a life

(NB: There is absolutely no connection between the title and the content. The writer was trying to be funny while writing the title)

Let's face it. We aren't really Einsteins (if you don't know who/what he/that is then i rest my case.)

Nor is the Bornvita and Horlicks (things that young people are forced to drink to become tall/thick/strong/clever/human/etc.) going to make much of a difference in the next 50 light years.

Frankly it is comfortable to be stupid.

[You can ask stupid questions. You can make stupid faces. You can write stupid answers.And you can get away with it. Kyunki we are stupid. We have the license to be stupid.]

But of course the world is full of intelligent people.

They are everywhere. At the bus stop. In the public toilets. At the cinema halls. In the parliament. Everywhere.
WEEDS!

QUESTION: Name one uncle/neighbour/ classmate/bus driver who doesn't have a concrete opinion on the saas bahu serials and the nuclear deal?

ANSWER: None

After thirteen years of schooling, three years of college and one year (still on it) of university i realise what i had known when i was in kinder-garden i.e I DON'T NEED SCHOOL. My mother asked me on the first day, "Don't you want to go to school?" I replied, "No thank you. Tom and Jerry is on the TV." Parents always tend to be spoil sports. I ended up being hugely unpopular and sloppy backbencher for the thirteen years.

Parents, teachers and the whole big bad world conspire together to maintain that the answer to stupidity (the inherent human quality) is schooling. Yes, you read it right. This is exactly what they think. Crazy, i know.

I wish i had faith in them :education system of our country i mean. what is education meant to be? What is the use of education? To increase brain power? Increase intelligence? Better capacity to work hard? Suitability for an appointment? Or perhaps none of these things, just to be known as 'educated'.

Everyone says education is to prepare young minds for adult life.

Are the young people really prepared for adult life or are they generally lost and churned in this great wheel of mismanagement also known as the education system ? I had a huge laugh reading the editorial of the "Nobilian" magazine this time. People who are guilty of the crime are themselves complaining against the crime. People are making a virtue out of their hypocrisy.

We pay too much importance to knowledge that is accumulation, storage and retrieval of facts and too little to understanding, using knowledge. This is a humble requests to all these teachers to step down from their Demi-God status and become humans again. Guide us, don't bully us.
