    School would be a tragically boring breeze

    Damn, math and science came easy to you? I could barely get through geometry and physics at the time, let alone decades down the road. I’d have to relearn all that shit just to barely pass those classes again.

      I mean I wouldn’t say it was easy, but I use math and physics heavily at work so I haven’t gotten rusty and I understand their value. If I had to go through math courses again it would more be tedious review and busy work than a challenge learning something for the first time. If someone thought it was the first time that might look like crazy raw talent. Learning to write cursive again would be much harder than math lol.

        You would have the neuroplasticity of a child, with the knowledge of an adult. You would experience things MUCH differently, which you may not remember, but I do…you would also learn very fast, and the skillsets you already have would only boost that a lot.

        You would actually be borderline superhuman.
