Same. To me, messing with a computer seemed like a great way to be on the hook for destruction of school property.

(That said, I did once disable the USB inputs for a computer in the BIOS so the keyboard and mouse would stop working, as a practical joke.)

I guess I never hung around any of you.

Lol, good point. I often forget how I was put in advanced classes at an early age with other students who performed well. I need to consider that more in my adult life, that most of the adults I'm encountering were the people in the regular classes.
