So, my brother and I were studying in the same college, and we have both been equally awkard at life in general. Brilliant in academics, sports and even spellling bees, but socially, let's just say we were average at best.

To give you a little backstory, we were both biology minors and our university had a tradition. Every year during the first week of classes, a Grand Quiz was conducted. It was our ticket to professorial preferences, like the sorting hat in Hogwarts. Do well in the quiz, the professors notice you. botch it, and you’ll blend into the woodwork.

Now, one of these questions was playing a game of opposites with biology related words. Easy enough, right? We thought so too

The profesors took turns asking the questions. "What's the opposite of predator?” they asked. “Prey,” we said. "Opposite of oviparous?" one professor threw at us. “Viviparous,” we repliedb. This whole session seemed like a cakewalk until a certain question rolled in "What's the opposite of Dominant?" Now, my brain promptly supplied the correct answer - "Recessive". But my mouth had plans of its own. I blurted out, "Submissive". The place lit up with laughter and the rest of my college social life went downhill real quick.
