It's okay though, because YOU ARE THE CAPTAIN OF YOUR MARVELOUS BOAT.

I am not the captain of my life. If I was, I wouldn't worry about my car breaking down.

Why wouldn't the captain be worried of his boat sinking?!

I have a license to hunt hipsters in Portland (it's like when a deer population becomes overwhelming and they issue temporary hunting licenses to thin their numbers).

It's a bit of a blow to the self-esteem to be a failure in every metric.

Today I dropped off my resume for a position that pays $44,000 a year. I will not get this job.

Anonymous A (OP) double-posted this 15 years ago, 6 minutes later, 20 hours after the original post[^] [v] #36,465

I also applied for a $10 an hour job. I will not get this one either.

Let me recycle a reply I made seconds ago 'elsewhere'

"Let me tell you what I think of poor students who have selected a MS or PhD degree in basket weaving or one of the languages.

Art history can be added to this equation.

I admire anyone that enjoys art and decides to pursue a degree. I would admire them MORE if they had a back up plan for gain full employment. English and other language majors. What the fuck were you thinking?

If you are in line for a huge Insurance settlement or have parents that are about to kick the bucket and leave you with a huge inheritance, your degree will leave you in the poor house the rest of your life.

Education can be a form of mental masturbation. The difference is: With Masturbation you end up getting off.

With Education Masturbation you end up poor. Poor the rest of your frigging life."
