11. You're the only one raising your hand to answer questions. 10. You're the only one who brought a graphing calculator to art class. 9. You're the only one reading Heinlein for your book report. 8. No one laughs at the physics joke you just made, and it's physics class for christ's sake. 7. When the teacher says, "This will be the toughest class you ever take." You're the only one who says "Awesome!" and means it. 6. Everyone else needs help with a simple differential equation 5. They're actually there while you've sent your avatar. 4. You're the only one with a Heroes of Physics lunch pail featuring Newton, Einstein, Hawking and Planck. 3. Although you're not the only kid with a laptop, yours is the only one running Open Solaris. 2. Other kids are texting on their iPhone and you're writing an iPhone app. 1. The kid next to you asks to borrow a pen, but doesn't specify the colour and when you respond as such they just stare at you blankly.
