You aren’t likely to develop an unique philosophy either, that is rich people stuff.

Ok ok fine I’ll bite. Studying philosophy is a matter of refining your approach to problems, not memorising what some gnarled old Greek dude thought 2000 years ago
Also literally everyone has a unique philosophy.

I suppose that’s true, but I don’t have the energy to think about it.

Well yeah, because you didn’t study it at school and so it doesn’t come as naturally as it might

I had a volunteer assigned to me, I learned everything, and within a week, I didn’t know it again.
I could never keep up, as I always wrote down slower, and so was left behind.
I was jealous, and did try to study.
For some reason, whenever you have something wrong with you, people just assume it’s because you did something, or you didn’t try hard enough.
No, I was always just worse than others at everything I do.
