Default Schoolmates

A quite very much particular case.

Imagine you were back to primary school: think of that stupid and poor boy that was always on his own, being the object of the bullies and always staying alone in a corner; or the conceited child who always got the best marks and whom everyone hated. What would have been of them?

In the Linz Realschule, the first one turned our being the world's cruelest dictator, the second one, a brilliant philosopher.



Yes, the dumb was Adolf Hitler, the nerd was Ludwig Wittgenstein.

Next time be careful on how you treat your schoolmates, hey.

this is very true... I think of this all the time, you never know what someone might do, or how you can change someone's life, for worse, or for good

i think about this very rarely. i was in the middle i guess, i had hardly any friends in primary school (alot of people didn't like me and vice versa) but i also gave some others a hard time, letting out my anger/frustration out on the closest person. i made a list just like earl from "My name is earl" but it dissapeared.... i even tried calling one of the persons i wasn't nice to but no one answered. maybe i'll meet them one day

The people I did bad things to deserved it, mainly from giving me or others a hard time. There was one in particularly who used to to everyone, finally I ended up getting in a fight with him, I think even the teachers hated him enough because hardly anything happened to me as a result
Generally though, I hated school, I was always fairly different, and idiots always pick up on that and try to make your life miserable as a result...
I had one really good friend in secondary school, and 2 (different ones) in primary school, plus a couple of other friends who really weren't that good sometimes, but could occasionally be OK I guess...

I wouldn't say Adolf Hitler was dumb , in fact he was a genius , in his own perverted , cruel and evil way , he just used his talents which one of was speech, for evil purposes .
