Most people think a dunce is something you are. An enate quality, like freckles or brown eyes.
Not me, though.
I’m pretty sure a dunce isn’t a thing at all. It’s a trick question: a dunce is a state of mind, a perspective, a way of seeing the world.
It’s got nothing to do with foolishness and everything to do with integrity.
“Being a dunce requires great commitment, after all, and one’s commitments must be actively demonstrated”—at least, that’s what they told me when they gave me the hat and told me to sit in the corner.
