The lecture hall quickly filled up with students studying Introductory

Philosophy.
Any questions before we begin? The teacher asked.
One hand rose timidly.
What is the difference between sparkle and glitter?
The teacher looked at the student and replied, You Mr Taylor have
never been the best ranked in class but are still favoured over others,
why?
When the student did not answer; the teacher spoke, You never
scored above average due to your laziness but the one time that you
did study, you scored the highest in the history of that test. That my
friend is sparkling.
