People who peaked in college are almost just as annoying as people who peaked in high school.

Why is your mascot at your wedding and why is almost every post have a caption related to your Alma Mater?

That’s not to say you’re not allowed to reflect on our college experience fondly, but my god. Please get a hobby or go outside and post about that.

    Pride of your alma mater is not the same as “peaked in college”.

    Some people just really appreciate the perceived ‘opportunity’ a school gave them, and like to be a cheerleader.

    Others feel the exact opposite and think school was wasteful and don’t feel they ‘owe’ the school shit since they paid and made their own opportunities.

    Neither person I’m describing is the same as someone who’s life ‘peaked’ in college. That’s just your judgement haha

    I’ve never met this person. Maybe everybody I know never went to college.

    I peaked in 1998, when I pulled a first edition Charizard on the elementary school playground at recess. It’s been nothing but downhill since.

    This seems to be exclusively an American thing, OR a posh British university thing with the “old boys” still wearing their Cambridge and Oxford ties.

    I can kinda get it if you went to one of the top universities. But if you went to some bumfuck shithole in Idaho, who cares.

    I feel the prpblem just boils down to people who make one thing their personality

    I’m glad to never have known when somebody peaked, or been worried about when someone peaked save for the odd psychedelic experience.

    For a country that hates education as much as it does, America is sure obsessed with which schools they managed to not get massacred at…
