So in high school I had this massive enemy. He’s self-righteous, cocky, hypocritical, (well, obviously he looks so bad because I’m the one who’s typing this) but honestly the reason why I HATED him so much was because he became the best friend of my boyfriend. And then he convinced him to break up with me. He’s lost (like all of us were) but always thinks that he is nonculpable of anything for he is the most mature person in the room.

Long story short, another insufferable thing he did was how he always bragged of his interest in physics and how he always acts like Einstein incarnate. The fact that they had the same birthdays (14 of March) didn’t help.

So after one long day in school I was so fed up and edited the Wikipedia entry of 14 March. Under “Birth” I listed him: “X, 14 March 1995, The Millenial Einstein.” And then screencaptured it.

It lasted 5 minutes on that page but it felt damn good.

And I also always referred to him as “Einstein” for the rest of HS because he fed me up so much. Dang, I was nasty.

In hindsight I should have just told him that he could never be further removed from Einstein as he is. All his big mouth won’t help him gain the sheer genius of forming such an elegant theory. From what I see from his social media, he hasn’t changed much. I don’t hate him now, and pride myself for turning my hate into mild amusement.
