      Did I tell you that in 7th grade, I launched a campaign to get everyone to stop saying "Kill two birds with one stone" and instead switch to my suggested, "Feed two birds from one feeder" ?

      Or maybe: - Was prosecution in 5th grade mock trial - Started out: "To be fair, the defense has some good points, e.g..." - Meant to transition to rebuttal, but got caught up in it - Ran out of time, had to sit down - Classmates thought I literally forgot which side I was on

          I love your “brand” but am just genuinely curious if your disposition to “fairness” at such a young age ever makes you question to what extent this essential element of who you is something you deliberately chose?

          High school mock trial: I played a witness. Was briefed by real PD on my role. Prosecutor got me to admit rehearsing my testimony with defense. That day I learned that lawyers cheat, and only care about winning.

          Nice! When I was 5, the teacher at school said that "Q is always followed by U." I remember thinking, "She's wrong, there's a country in the Middle East that I read about in the encyclopedia." When I got home, I looked up "Qatar" to confirm, and felt triumphant.

          Another time, she said that there are two birds that can't fly, the penguin and the ostrich. I was irked that she didn't mention the kiwi bird from New Zealand (I almost certainly had read about that in the encyclopedia too). I was an awfully annoying kid . . .

          Good thing it was a mock trial. I expect that created a valuable learning experience for all parties.

          That's kind of adorable. I think I got stumped in mine and was like, huh maybe you're right.
