    And the most talented person I've ever seen left shool at 16.

    Basically the way to check if you're talented is, are you on the big bucks?:
    My talent has grown 1000% last year then. 7 digits talent soon!

          You can't do basic maths. Perhaps you're talented in another way?
          I'm sure you're special.

            Yes dear. My son is in prep school, the first wife hasn't left me, the house is owned outright, I've got enough saved, I'm not going to live like a pauper when I retire. What's the correct answer?

            P.s. I did answer your question which was you trying to be a bit snobby about universities.

              Maybe I'm so talented you can't comprehend.
              Surely if I started with 0 two years ago then 1 year ago I had X which is more than 0. then 1000% on that x.

              easy logic.



              Anyone got any "more" of such great brexit benefits
              I expect 1000% more of them.

                They would also know that 60% of fish landed on British soil in British ports lands in Scotland, which voted to remain. So even the argument, which is probably the most fatuous and hackneyed of all, that the fishing industry somehow has an enormous role or a glittering future as a result of Brexit, falls apart like an even cheaper suit when you recognise the fact that 60% of fish landed in British ports is currently landed in the part of Britain that voted most persuasively to remain in the European Union.A part of Britain which coincidentally also now is agitating to leave the United Kingdom.
                Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.

                  Isn't fishing something like 1% of the economy anyway?
                  You know what Brexit is?
                  It's the profound failure to educate plebs in basic arithmetic.
