...I am not seeing it.

An average man nowadays will live up to 80 years. 3/4 years (depending where you live) is less than 5% of your life. So, what is to come during next six to seven or more decades is nothing compared to those four years?

As if.

It isn't, unless you don't do anything with your adulthood.

Which, to be fair, a lot of people don't.

If high school = secondary school, then I call absolute bullshit.

Secondary school sucks. Massively.

Words cannot describe the hate I have for school.

Really? I mostly remember high school being too boring for me to bother remembering any of it...

Secondary school's been pretty good in many ways. Primary was better, though! I expect that any time of your life can seem the best or the worst, and once you're old enough to have perspective on what things have actually been like, your advice is meaningless to the new generation of angsty teenagers.

That was the amazing part. Things just keep going.

Ehhhh. It's neutral for me.

Everyone's either an asshat or pretty okay. Everyone's a dolt, or pretty okay.

Everyone in my school exhibits several signs of psychopathy. Or at least, they're ALL massive bastards.

I actually think they'd kill someone if they would find it amusing.

High school was fucking awful and I'd rather put my eyes in a pool of acid rather than going back there.

I ain't even bitted :3

Secondary school is hell on Earth. High School is pretty cool in comparison.

It isn't, unless you don't do anything with your adulthood.

I'm currently doing nothing (until someone actually gets back to me on any of my job applications and I can get a car to do things), but it's still better than high school.

At least now I can go find something interesting to do if I get bored. I couldn't do that in high school (without risking getting in trouble).

It's not. At all. Granted, I didn't exactly have it as bad as some other people and do have some fond memories of my last year, but I still wouldn't trade my current hectic as hell college/work life for it any day of the week.

Helps that I was a colossal prick then and would throttle my 15 year old self if given an opportunity.

I'd say High School was the best time of my life,..but then I'd be forgetting

1. 4th Grade in Elementary School

2. All the summers in-between every grade

3. College

4.Sophomore year

5.Junior year

6. What about the rest of adult life

Now I will grant that the decade spent between ages 15-25 grants the most time to do random shit,but that's not always the best thing.

Actually Cracked did an article on why this is a fallacy,and even one deconstructing everything about high school right here,...actually they do a lot of deconstruction of this type of stuff.

High school was an average time for me that I myself made worse by drawing inward way too much and not branching out as much as I could've. That being said, it was also the first place I ever sang and played guitar in front of a large group of people, and everyone loved me for it, so that was pretty nice, y'know? cool
