[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have 3 brothers that are all duds. There is probably a thread of mental illness but they were all raised to believe they were better than everyone else. Parents provided nice clothes, cars and furnishings but they are all empty suits with big egos. [/quote]

There may be mental illness etc ... but at the private school I attended most of the people who ended up as "duds" were average students whose parents were very successful, and the kids had access to a lot of money, newish cars, all the clothes they wanted. Didn't have to work, tended to be able to afford to do drugs and drink more, and had super high opinions of themselves. [/quote]

Oh I see now. This had nothing to do with the actual question in the OP and was really just a sad, passive-aggressive vehicle for you to assert your purported superiority over the cool kids who didn’t like you in HS.

Yes. Many of them are duds. Being a middle-aged woman who needs validation from anonymous strangers that your HS nemeses are losers is running neck and neck with “dud” for exactly what no one wants to be. [/quote]
