XKCD: 11th Grade
Sorry to post another xkcd strip, but they just keep hitting home:

I just had to look it up on wikipedia ‘cos it was bugging me - the British equivalent of 11th Grade in ‘my’ terms is Lower Sixth, or in ‘new money’ Year 12.
I’m trying to remember what I was doing that enhanced my life in the Lower Sixth - certainly not Perl which I didn’t discover until much later - I was probably doing good old BASIC and Pascal on an Apple II at that time, and perhaps some 6502 machine code on my Acorn Atom. Now that dates me!
