@maiya This is what I was implying when I said I read 1984 in 8th grade and haven't touched it since. I was being snarky, but thanks for being direct. This is the truth.

@vriska I am scottish, I will ruin every joke or subtle comment with being obvious about it. It's a cultural thing.

@maiya @vriska The way adults use it as a source of knowledge reminds me of how some programmers look back at their very first introductory programming courses for what to do, which is often a bad idea. Good example: implementing algorithms by hand when there are highly optimized and tested ones that are freely available with permissive enough licenses.
