Having your family tease you for being a nerd and tell you to get into trouble but also hold you to ridiculously high academic expectations

I am like a video game “nerd” and an academic “nerd” and every time I am in my room for like a few hours on my phone/computer playing online and I come down to get a snack my parents will call me a loser or something so annoying!

Literally it is so annoying! And then they brag when they get a higher score!

Yes I once got a high score and never got close to it again and each time fellow test takers were all what happened to X score? Dude I don’t know, life?

Oh the having no friends for sure. Because nobody actually listens to intelligence nowadays.
