It stands to reason, being a C+ student in high school, that I know little about palindromes.
Granted, it’s not my fault, kind-of, that I didn’t get higher grades: I earned my C+. For four years of my life I had been surrounded by tricksters and teeny-bopper whores, tricking and whoring their way through class after class. All the while, I, a solid, upstanding student of favorable recommendation and merit, muscled my way through Economics classes at nine in the morning like a common-day Johnny-Come-Lately: never quite opening myself up to the possibility of having it so much better.
You may be asking what my meandering high school experience has to do with palindromes. The truth is, absolutely nothing. But that’s the point: Nothing.
Palindromes have such little consequence on any given aspect of life, that you were better informed about life in general by reading a short outburst regarding my high school shortcomings than actually reading a palindrome.
For those who are not in the know, palindromes are words and/or phrases that read the same forwards as they do in reverse.
Examples include “Name no one man,” “Sit on a potato pan, Otis,” and “Lisa Bonet ate no basil.”
As you can tell, you are now neither smarter nor dumber for having read those. They now just occupy space in your delicious brain that may well have been reserved for curing any number of terminal illnesses.
Move aside AIDS-cure, “Able was I ere I saw Elba” needs a new home.
