There are hundreds of QTs from Nazis talking about how they were the smartest kids ever but the damn (((education system))) hampered them, and anyone who doesn't believe that they're hyper geniuses is simply a seething lib.
You're supposed to get over the "I was a gifted kid" stuff by the time you're 20.

Yep, it me. My first degree is in sociology and that's only because it interested me in my late teens/early 20s, so those are the classes I landed in because all my advisor really cared about was keeping me eligible for sportsball. If you need inspiration for the future, I went back to school in my 40s and absolutely nailed a bunch of STEM courses with a 3.9 GPA.
