Lol.  Yes.  Because school is life.  No.  School is pointless.  The only thing school teaches you is how to fucking make friends and have a social life.  The classes they offer and give you mean shit.  You learn what the teacher knows.  The teacher doesn't know much or sucks at teaching means you learn shit and all that time spent in class was pointless.  So no sir, you are stupid.  Just because you get a few good grades doesn't mean shit.

It means that I can get into a good college and not have to pay for a lot of it.  I love your badass attitude though. School isn't hard, it's a stupid decision to not try to get at least decent grades.

You only learn what you want to learn. If you are an idiot like cotton you wont learn much. You only get out of school what you put into it.

Same story here. But I'm not in high school and so I don't care much about it. I didn't really care about anything at all actually even when I was in high school.

I think everyone needs to go to school so they learn how much they don't like it. If you don't go to school you probably won't think right away to hate it.

School's school isn't to teach you to be social (except for the rare teamwork and buddy bullshit), it's purpose (and partially college's purpose) is to give you general knowledge about several things to see what you might be interested in. It shows you the world because you can't look at a 5 year old kid and say what he's going to be when he grows up. It's good to pay attention to expand your knowledge and broaden yourself. Knowledge is great if done right but a lot of schools and colleges fail at it. High School education is good as long as you pay attention, if you do, you don't need college IMO. In fields that change a lot (take Information Technology or computers for example) how can college teach you stuff about the next generation of technology? There's a lot of subjects where it doesn't matter if you've been to college, there's 3rd party credentials that employers often look for.

Simply:
Everything up to High School = general knowledge.
College = pointless.

college may be pointless learning wise, but most decent paying jobs require a college degree of some sort. So it technically isn't pointless.

4 years and that much money just to get a job that has requirements that won't bend. In a lot of situations, willingness to work and knowledge above what they're asking can trump "requirements".

I knowledge.
