I won't fault him for the last 2 but how do you not know Achilles?
You Don't even have to know about Greek mythology because people say Achilles heel as a figure of speech all the time.
Or maybe I'm just becoming a boomer who knows
@basedbagel Probably a 1st generation college student.
Very likely 0 books in his childhood hole. Itnis a good indicator.
We had 3 sets of Encyclopedias Britannica and Compton's among other classical literature that my parents had invested in, for my sister and I.
Robinson Curusoe
Oliver Twist
Dad's books.

@basedbagel Most women view their husband as a useful tool and their children as an accessory; like an SUV ot an exclusive gym membership.
Parenting/upbringing does not even cross their mind.
I'm not saying all parents are perfect, but in general, most parents, even pet owners are wholly unqualified and lack the requisite IQ and credentials. Save the mentality and mental stability to pass on Values.

Its so true and so sad because anytime I mention solutions I get called a eugenicist, misogynistic etc...
All the while their kids are there ones who suffer.
Good thing I'm getting out of this country

Damn that's a good point I didn't even consider that.
I had an encyclopedia series called "The book of Knowledge" that I read through until I was old enough to be allowed online.
Just another reason I'm SO glad I don't complain about my family anymore.
They may be Kray but they at least stayed together and helped me pay for uni.
Some of these parents these days... they don't even give their kids a Fighting Chance
