ETERNALLY CO-SIGNED. I’ve known brilliant insightful people who never finished college, never finished high school, and even some that can’t read/write beyond signing their name. I’ve also known people with PhDs and ivy league degrees who are airheads that are really goddamn good at jumping through hoops.
