Shout-out to everyone that got an "A" in AP US History, but have never even heard about Colfax.🤷🏿‍♂️

That "A," means that you learned something, but you didn't learn anything that would help you navigate what's happening around you today.

I had forgotten where I picked this up, I know I did not come up with it, and I found it!

It seems to have originated in the .NET era:
