People trying to be perfect really are the most annoying people on the earth. They belong on their own planet where they can all just live a perfect fake life together. Just like this one kid in one of my highschool classes who always got good grades and worshiped the teacher.
His name was matty and he always made the whole class look bad compared to his perfect self. It was ridiculous really the teacher treated him like a puppy dog always giving him treats. Needless to say he didn't have any friends but the teacher. One time he was the only one that got an A on one of our tests for that class, and he was quick to rub it in our faces.
I had finally had it with that kid and for a spokesperson in a way for my class I told him he was the only one who got an A because he had no social life and was trying to hard to be perfect for his only friend the teacher. The whole class erupted in laughter.
Now looking back I realize that was a really mean thing to say and if I could go back I would and apologize for what I said to him. But I suppose that is how life goes. Always wishing you could go back in time and fix things.

I have to say--I don't like brownnosers, but this kid doesn't seem like he was doing much worse than paying attention and doing his work. Of course, he shouldn't have been snotty about his success, but I've seen worse actors.
