Things That Annoy You

[Sleepy]

I hate it when people are unbearably stupid about their college choices. I know a girl who wants to become a music teacher, which we all know is not the best-paying job. Well, it's her choice, so whatever. But beyond that, rather than going to one of the many nice colleges here in our state, she is going to a college out-of-state. Not because of the amazing music teacher program it has, but because the campus is nice. Fuck all the beautiful campuses in Virginia, this West Virginia one is totally worth the horrifying out-of-state tuition! And she expects her mom to pay for it, at least partially. I can't wrap my mind around this.

So you're essentially saying we need more MBAs/hedge fund managers and no teachers, simply because teaching doesn't pay well? It's sad that college tuition is ludicrously expensive to the point that people have to choose a career based on what gets them out of debt faster.

That's not what she's saying. What she's saying is there are a number of good music schools in Virginia (Longwood, Mary Washington, Virginia Commonwealth) that the girl could go to and get a better education at a cheaper price. Instead, she's going out of state to a lesser school because she likes the campus.

That is totally 100% exactly what I said. You have the best reading comprehension I've ever seen from anyone ever.

Silly Queen.

Your love for disgusting foods annoys me.

You never asked that question of me until just now.

And neither is this the thread for it.

Either way, it really depends, now doesn't it? For me, marijuana is one of the least harmful drugs that you can get that is still illegal. Well, in most places.

Yes I did. Previous page, 6th post from the bottom. 12:53:34 AM.

You mean the one that says "So what about alcohol? Will that remain the same, or will it be controlled like painkillers now?"

Because that isn't quite the same question as "if marijuana should be restricted the same as painkillers, what other recreational drugs should face the same restriction? If none others, what makes pot unique?"

But whichever, really. Also, I really hate having to go through 4 pages of posts.

The next person to bring up GMO or weed while others are discussing the Shutdown will get milk tea in their face. Like can you focus on the topic that's at hand? I swear, there is a time and place for those discussion, but people feel the need to bring them up everywhere.

Thank you, thank you, thank you.

"Weed" bolded because I see more of that than on Genetically Modified Foods, in fact I've seen nothing on GMOs yet.

I've noticed that a lot of "messianic potheads," as I like to call them, derail practically all political conversations into the War on Drugs and weed.

How ironic that these complaints successfully derailed the thread into a discussion about the War on Drugs and weed. (I know, I helped derail it further, but it gave me a chance.)

Well, there are now about two feet of snow covering everything in sight, all travel is officially suspended in the entire county, and I had serious trouble even getting my door open this morning because of the giant snowdrift outside.

And to think it was 80 degrees last Monday. Isn't there supposed to be this thing called fall in between?

EDIT: I meant feet all along. The earlier instance of "inches" was a brain fart.

My second question was a slight extrapolation on the first one: alcohol is a recreational drug, after all. It was simply a more clear and specific questioning.

Question....the fuck is wrong with West Virginia University?

Why can't the girl save her mother tens of thousands of dollars by attending in state? The problem with West VA U is that it's too fucking pretty a campus, apparently . That girl needs to be told she can go where she wants, but if it's out of state, she'll be paying for the tuition difference on her own. I have a sick feeling the mom will cave, though; the kind of self entitled ego this girl exhibits is usually a case of incompetent parenting.

Well if you were a True Virginian™ then you would know that we make a pastime from mocking the lesser Virginia.

I think Sleepy's problem is less that she's going to West Virginia University and more that she's making choices about her future that don't display a whole lot of forethought ("This place is relatively cheap and has a good program" vs. "IT'S SO PRETTY").

As a "True Virginian™" I am mostly shocked you forgot one of the better music schools in the state.  JMU would like words with thee!

Ironbite-BUT NOT AFTER I'M THROUGH WITH MINTING SLEEPY! MWHWHAHAHAHAHA!
