HUBRIS CONTEST:

Gerald raced home, test in hand, too excited to look both ways as he crossed intersections. There was never any traffic anyway, and this news was too good to wait. He only paused at one point to pick up the books that had scattered on the sidewalk behind him because he’d forgotten to zip closed his backpack.

He sprinted up his driveway and burst through the front door.

“I am the GOAT!!!” He threw the paper towards his mother, who looked up in bewilderment.

“A B+ on your English exam. I’m proud of you. Now what about your math quiz?”
