A Boring Dystopia

Sounds like you don't really understand either very well then. Get off your intellectual high horse. We're not debating the definition of irony like it's 2003. And if you can't see how in your case your reading comp issues "don't count" but in their case they're having some sort of personal failing then I don't know what to tell you. Since you're so smart why don't you go read up on the self-serving bias so you can throw that term around later without engaging in introspection too. At the end of it all you will still have failed to comprehend the meaning of what someone wrote to you, whether it's because you didn't try hard enough, you're too lazy, or too stupid. Failing grade is a failing grade. Ugh I'm tired of these high school report card metrics. But I guess coupling the high school language with the intellectual arrogance and poor attitude it reveals a lot about the level of maturity you're bringing to this conversation.
