Haters be all hatin'...

in News by DaveKellett

I found this to be a fun little shot-in-the-arm, today, and thought I'd pass it along. It's a brief YouTube video listing famous historical figures, and how each was, at one point in their life, told they'd amount to nothing.

After watching this, though, I kinda fear that I'll be included in a similar video, 30 years from now, with the voice over: "Was told that it was physically impossible to eat six pounds of Oreos in one sitting: Dave Kellett."

I can see it now. "(Insert my real name here) was told that he wouldn't be able to revolutionize the way we see and interact with the physical world today."

I uh, *cough*, want to be a *cough* quantum physicist *HACK*. I feel soooo alone. But I'll probably build a time machine, go into the future, and see that video, seeing how I've inspired future generation. Also, to get a textbook with my name in it. *sniff*

Oh, good luck with the Oreos, Dave. I'd probably end up hating Nabisco after that many Oreos.

Noöne's a failure once LanguageLog [upenn.edu] has said nice things about them.

Nah, Dave, we know you can do it!

(See, now you're off the hook.)
