The Leveler vs. The Explainer (The Final Battle) #5/777



I grew up in a pretty rich rural high school.  The boredom I had didn't make me realize I should dedicate more time for homework.  Find out that If I dedicate myself to an extra curricular activity I would be occupied.  No my boredom allowed me to cause chaos.  I wasn't the only one in the school to skip class, get high, defy all authority, and get more suspensions and Saturday schools then I did lunches.  We had a group of us.  Ten rowdy kids with the same mission: Get fucked up and fuck anyone who gets in our way.  Meet The Crew (that's what we called ourselves), and we were so dedicated to our mission statement almost everyone respected us.  Or they just hated us (we call those people teachers and principles).

Once I got out of high school and The Crew went off to different college we realized those values weren't going to go far in life.  Times were certainly changing, and have changing drastically since I BARELY graduated in 2007.  Now we barely keep in touch, if at all.  Some committed felonies, some had drug issues, some never grew up, and only a select few found their true direction in my life.  I'm thankful to say I think I've found my calling, and I know The Explainer has to.

The Explainer was one of the members of the notorious crew, and recently just graduated from an extremely good school with an amazing degree.  We've managed to keep in touch over the years, and his knowledge and his hilarious ego have made for some interesting conversations.  For example: I would ask him what really is force?  Simple answer he would say. Mass X Acceleration.  Plug that formula in and he is 1000% correct.  I would then respond with, what is acceleration?  If you can tell these conversations went nowhere, and if it weren't for us going through so much together, I think one of us would snap.

I believe The Leveler created Force, created, eyes, created the laptop I'm typing on, and the lightning that is striking outside.

The Explainer has a reason for all of it, and I can't fight it.

But The Leveler will have his day, and every question that I've had that The Explainer couldn't answer, will come to fruition.

The Leveler 0 : The Explainer 0
