Now, stupidity is an infinite natural resource.
Stupidity is awesomely mighty.
You can fight back, but it is vain. I remember rather well what it is, since I graduated from high school last spring. I don't know how it meets american educational system, but I'm 19 years old now. I study architecture at technological university, and it's quite like living on a different planet. Only way I have found to survive Stupidity's onslaught is to ignore it as completely as possible.
