There’s an old saying that those who live in glass houses shouldn’t throw stones.

The student throwing shade in this story has obviously not heard of it.

See how this guy put her in her place.

AITA for academically shaming somebody that academically shamed me?

I was on Hinge the other day. This girl liked me; I liked her back and we got to talking.

She mentioned it was cool I go to an Ivy League School and asked what I was studying.

Their chat is about to go off the rails.

I told her history and philosophy.

She responded with an attitude and said she thought I was smart and studying STEM like she was.

As a knee jerk reaction, I responded pointing out that I go to an Ivy.

His honesty turned into an epic burn.

Then I noted that she goes to a school with an 80% acceptance rate.

So who is she to say she’s smart and I’m not?

In hindsight it does feel childish, but I also think she opened herself up for that with her statements.

Here is what people are saying.

She’s probably generally insufferable.

I wonder if she’s kicking herself.

I fear social media has played a role.

Simple as this.

LOL good one.

I bet she’ll try that again.

If you enjoyed that story, read this one about a mom who was forced to bring her three kids with her to apply for government benefits, but ended up getting the job of her dreams.
