11-Year-Old Graduates With Degree In Astrophysics
Gotenosente writes "11-Year-Old Moshe Kai Cavalin has graduated from East Los Angeles Community College with a degree in astrophysics. 'At a time when his peers are finishing 6th grade, this only child of a Taiwanese mother and an Israeli father is trying on a cap and gown preparing to graduate with a 4.0 from community college.' The article continues with a quotation by the boy, hinting at his modesty, 'I don't consider myself a genius because there are 6.5 billion people in this world and each one is smart in his or her own way.' Daniel Judge, Cavalin's statistics professor, says, 'Most students think that things should be harder than they are and they put these mental blocks in front of them and they make things harder than they should be. In the case of Moshe, he sees right through the complications.'"
Odds are he'll kill himself by age 30, actually.
Wait, he graduated from ELAC? ELAC?
There aren't enough LOLs in the world for this one.
... and his cohorts will still get a job before him.
-- I was raised on the command line, bitch
Maybe the super-duper evil genius is seeking out dozens of these smart kids in advance, hoping to create enough evil geniuses to serve as cannon fodder ...
... and for them to serve as a distraction for when he puts his ultimate plan for world domination into motion.
Well, there is, actually. And he's well on his way to collecting his team of subordinate evil geniuses. Unfortunately, some don't make the team because of a high rate of IRS/tax-related difficulties that show up during the nomination process, so he's still got a bunch of empty slots to fill.
It's called "the stimulus package," and no comic book writer could possibly invent something more insidious, more full of plot twists, and more likely to produce spectacular unintended consequences.
Don't disappoint your bird dog. Go to the range.
