Me: I'm so vindicated. I got rejected by so many profs for my undergrad GPA and now I have a 4.0. They didn't want to take a chance on me being a good grad student and they were wrong.
Some idiot: yeah that happens to everybody because you only have to take one course at a time in grad school. that's not unusual.
Major FUCK YOU to this person. How dare you take away from me how much that meant to me? Think before you fucking speak next time. Jesus christ. You don't know what I went through. You don't know that I thought about killing myself for a solid year because I was convinced I wasn't good enough for the real world if I couldn't get into grad school and then having that not-good-enough feeling confirmed by several rejections. Why on earth would you try to take that away from me?
There are many things in this world I could not ever be this successful at. There are many people in the world who could not be this successful at this thing I am good at. This is my victory, this is my win, I worked hard for this and I am damn talented. This is not just something that happens to everyone in this program. Or maybe this is easy for you but I want you to know how horrible what you said was.
Fuck you.
That's all.
