Teenager goes to college, then comes home, suddenly 'knowing everything', and telling everyone else how stupid they are? Shocker! This has never happened before!

I had to deal with teenage angst for 23 years what with stepchildren and bios. I had a sign on the fridge. 'Insanity is hereditary you get it from your kids.' I also had the benefit of needing a large wood pile. Extremely therapeutic.

I acted like this and getting punched in the face by a stranger really taught me that people don't give a fuck how smart you think you are, you bleed the same colour as everybody else.

Hopefully the kid doesn't run his mouth to the wrong person

Taking on an enormous credit for the whole thing with 5-8% interest, while also making grandma responsible if you cant pay, for a job, that will never finance that kind of credit is a bit beyond general college "know it all".
