You don't mean that.


It amazes me that OAO's ability to read, his vocabularly skills, and his ability to synthesize reasonably complicated ideas has done nothing for him excpet make him proud of himself. I would say he'd get crushed ike a bug when he gets to college and meets actual smart people, but I don't think he has enough self awareness to understnd he's been crushed. He'll keep prattling away, sure he's a genius, and they'll be enough lonely, dimmer, sycophants around to help him believe it (one would be enough) and eventually he'll become some sort of miniature, far less influential Grover Norquist type. He'll be one of those guys they do a segment on for the Daily Show, who know it's a comedy, but feel it's worth doing 'cause it 'get's their ideas out there.'
