1st Grader Puts An Answer On A Test That's So Stupid That It's Actually Genius

Daily Mail- He was asked a simple math question – but his response was genius. This image shows a six-year-old boy’s incredible – and hilarious – answer to a question on a recent school math paper that has left his mother feeling ‘proud’ and certain that he is ‘going places’. The American youngster was firstly asked to work out whether ‘Bobby’, who had four dimes, or ‘Amy’, who had 30 pennies, had the largest sum of money, to which he correctly replied: ‘Bobby’. But then, he was asked: ‘How do you know? Show your thinking?’. In response, the boy simply drew a stick picture of himself scratching his head, with a thought bubble containing the answer. After his mother saw his brilliant answer, she couldn’t resist proudly sharing it.  She posted a photo of the drawn-on paper on Reddit, writing: ‘This is why my kid is going places.’

Lemme tell you something. This kid might not be the smartest kid in the class.  He might not be the kid with the most organized desk. He might not totally have his shit together. He might end up going to college but never finishing because he gets distracted.  But he is the kid who is going the furthest in life. I guarantee it. A couple reasons why. One, as simple as that answer is, it’s also out-of-the-box. That’s more valuable then putting the expected answer. I guarantee ever other snot-nosed 1st grader in that glass showed their work like a bunch of robots. Not him. He put down what he was literally thinking. He wasn’t wrong either.  And second, he made people laugh. That’s the key. And not just any people, adults. Make those people laugh as a 1st grader and everything will be just fine. Humor is the golden ticket. That’s true whether you’re a 1st grader answering questions on a stupid math test or when you’re a high school kid trying to get laid for the first time or when you’re submitting your writing to a blog that’s mostly based out of the north east but you just wanna try something fucking different cause working endless hours as a security guard is like being dead while alive. This kid is golden as long as he never loses that ticket. Never change, youngster.
