while i obviously can't condone ted's actions back in the day, over the years his complaints and warnings have seemed eerily prescient.

he did spend his time in the belly of the beast, so i'm sure he had a better view of what was coming down the pike than us deplorables. according to wikipedia (yeah, i know, but) he was accepted to harvard at the age of sixteen. according to a classmate,

"They packed him up and sent him to Harvard before he was ready ... He didn't even have a driver's license."

before he was ready. ready for what, exactly?
