catpenis27 - 2010-10-29 I did that once on an airplane. The luggage racks were moving all over the place and it took me like 10 minutes to make it to the bathroom. I didn't even have to piss, after sitting there for like an hour I just went back to my seat.

I have a lawyer brother. The guy in this even looks like him.

My parents are lawyers. This is a fact.

Hey pineapple, do you have an aim or a yahoo? You're seriously making me reconsider my interest in college and law., I'd like to know what your experience was like.

Not as good as the other one, even though the other one contained the word "frack"... twice.

Alright, am I alone? Seriously done listening to annoying robot voices deflecting straw-man arguments?

Raggamuffin - 2010-10-29 Cause if thats what I wanted, I'd just copy/paste Poe-News into this: http://www2.research.att.com/~ttsweb/tts/demo.php

So what I am getting from these is it doesn't matter what path you chose for school/career, because they all lead to misery.

kingarthur - 2010-10-29 The secondary lesson is to never pursue your dreams. Your dreams, 95% of the time will never come true, even if you do get the career of your choosing. Face this fact early in life and its all gravy from there.
|
spikestoyiu - 2010-10-29 Yeah, right. I barely went to community college, paid like 0 for the whole thing, and now I'm a network engineer and part-time kickboxing/MMA coach. I almost never take my work home with me, I've been making enough to buy myself a house in my mid-twenties and I get six weeks a year to go hang out in Thailand. I'm not trying to brag about any of that shit because it's really okay at best, but I'm a'ight.

Xenocide - 2010-10-29 Who was I even talking to with that message.
The children, that's who. Wu Tang is for the children.
|
Baldr - 2010-10-29 Sosage, it's more that certain professions eat their children, and these are the screams of the cannibalized. You can tell which professions do this by checking the ratio of awarded professional degrees to available positions that pay decent wages for graduates.

Raggamuffin - 2010-10-29 Xeno, how about:
"It's better to regret something you have done, than something you haven't done."

kingarthur - 2010-10-30 Eh, maybe I'm speaking from my own jaded perspective and reluctant as I am to post anything vaguely personally identifiable on this site, here goes:
I finished undergraduate despite being kidnapped and beaten in college just before having my identity stolen and enduring an ongoing undiagnosed medical condition, dropped out of grad school due to Hurricane Katrina and a suicide attempt and then dropped out of grad school a second time due to a major illness (finally diagnosed this time) that landed me in the hospital for weeks. I have no savings and I live at home with mom and dad, can't find a job due to piss-ant economy, Katrina recovery, credit score due to medical issues, and stigma associated with my illness in backwards-as-fuck Mississippi and have ever-increasing student loan debt due to interest (in the range of 70K) from grad school I couldn't finish. But you know, think positive.
In my experience all that "pursue your dreams/positive thinking" bullshit is a luxury for those with enough money or enough stupid to do it. Me, I spend enough effort just trying to not think about reasons to kill myself or trying not to go mad.
But you know, pursue your dreams. I, on the other hand, am pretty much willing to rent my asshole out for vigorous trade just to make interest payments on a consolidated loan.
:D

kingarthur - 2010-10-30 Didn't post a word of that for pity. Only posted for a dose of reality in the middle of well-off suburban privileged wankery. I'm a firm believer in the idea that the worst thing the guidance counselor can possibly tell you is to follow your heart.
|
Raggamuffin - 2010-10-30 Never pursue your dreams or you will get sick and hit by hurricanes.

From personal experience, "Going to law school" has usually translated to "My well off to rich parents finally got tired of me fucking around and want me to get a degree before they give me a job in the family business."

The only thing I hate more than xtra normal are the people who use it.
