Trendon!!

Post by Seeitsaveit13 »

I'm in your version of hell...

-Night Class about Social Media and Media Literacy
-Taught by a guy who has to be an apple genius, if he isn't he's missing the best chance ever
-We have a "snack list" - tonights menu, hummice, organic crackers, and fruit
-7 high school teachers (masters candidates), 3 other masters people, 3 phd students, and me... they're all hipsters
-Confessing love for apple and such, talking about starbucks, and talking about eating sushi and free range foods because they're cool...

Kill me

I don't understand why a simple league with only a few guys can't EVER finish, no matter how many times we try, lol.

Hummis is good but I know exactly the type you are talking about. But, welcome to secondary education!

Our university system has become a motley assortment of fantasy land majors and self-righteous idiocy. It is a mental hospital staffed by insane, enraged, wimpy, loser, ex-hippie, baby boomers who, themselves, could never face the real world. Most of these "Professors" were college students who in 1972, with the ending of the Vietnam War (and the protesting they so loved), found they had to find some way to make a living without doing anything. These baby boomers couldn’t actually stand up to the rigors of "real" college (which used to be really fucking hard; which, of course, is why so few people used to get in). Nor were they willing to get a real job. So what they did is protest for more "socially relevant" courses (i.e. lame-ass courses) so that they could get a degree while stoned. Eventually, they found a way to get a PhD/Masters in these newly created, obscure, pointless fields so they could then teach you their stupid "discipline" and get tenured (salaried for life for doing nothing). Which leads us to today where you now pay an institution close to $200,000.00 (repeat: two hundred thousand dollars!) a year to teach you something that you could learn from a $10.00 book, stoned, and/or drunk, in your spare time.

Although I agree completely, my first thought after reading this was, "How you like them apples?" Thanks Will

For posterity's sake, a lot of that is not original thought by me but something I for which I completely agree.

Luckily its only this class (I ventured into the education department for a cross-department credit, bad call). Otherwise I don't have to deal with these people that much
