Welcome to OK Stupid’s 100th entry. Bring on the movie deals, or therapy. Probably therapy.
Team Math, The Maths, aka the Math Monkeys analyzed over 2000 scientific journals to graph the relative difficulty in quitting a particular behavior.
Some of the behaviors have been previously identified as addictive (reality TV and crack cocaine) and others are more societal enforced behaviors (online dating and your band).
The lesson from this is simple boys and girls: Quit High School. It’s easy and your education is more or less meaningless in this new global economy. Don’t worry if you have dreams about “being stuck back in High School”. Graduates and drop-outs both have those dreams.
note: need to interview High School drop-outs to see if they also experience dreams about the 13th grade.
