I don't understand a lot of things that happen in the world. Or maybe I do but its just I refuse to fully acknowledge whatever it is I do understand so adamantly that I fool myself into ignorance.

I don't understand how parents tell their kids to not worry about what others think of them, but then critisize their children on their actions and dress and words because someone might think badly of them.

Oh Funny story time.
I got this from tumblr.
"A while ago in my AP Chemistry class, this one annoying kid and my friend were having a weird argument about who was better. The annoying kid said, "Well, at least I have a girlfriend!" to which I responded, "Whatever. Your girlfriend has 67 protons." In response, the entire class, including the teacher, turned their heads to look at the periodic table on the wall. The element with 67 protons is holmium, with the chemical symbol "Ho." My teacher was the first to laugh."
I'm not in AP Chem because the teacher isn't very good at our school and I wasn't very interested in the subject anyway. How is this even relevant?
