Yes, but you're suggesting that you see failure when you look around the room -- like the world won't be as good of a place as you *EXPECT* it to be... Well those deficiencies are only the result of your expectations for the world! Should everyone live up to your standards!? Hell no. Fuck you. You are miserable because you have created your own hell... not because the people around are failing to be smart enough... There is only one universe -- and it will never change -- you can't change the future -- the future will do whatever the fuck it wants to... so why do you think that "smart" people will improve the world... They just won't. You're falling prey to the "deception" of intelligence as something useful for evil purposes...

Smartness has a dual purpose -- to gain personal knowledge... and for entertainment... But you may find that knowledge is entertainment and entertainment is knowledge -- as they approach each other in significance! Just have fun... That's the meaning of life.

"you are the future of this country" is just a ploy by your professor -- and see it has worked -- you still remember his line to this day because he was a smart fucker. He used a simple phrase to feel inadequate so that you would work harder so that you got better grades so that he would look better as a professor so he could make more money so that he could fuck his wife with a little more confidence. You see the mind works like that... Satan is in every word that leaves our lips.

Got that right.

\m/

Yeah, I feel pretty humble now. Hehe...

profs make more money from research. teaching is just a pain in the ass for most of them. some can't even teach for shit. then there's some can hardly speak english.

What colleges?

I went to U of Texas (kick ass Art dept, best in the states) , U of New Orleans, Art Institute of Houston, and had great American Professors who spoke good English and cared about students.

Then again, I went to College in the South.

Were you in Canada?

http://www.aih.artinstitutes.edu/
http://www.uno.edu/

speaking from experience there?

I am FAR too smart to have read the first 4 pages of this thread.

Thats no shit. The university I attended, your odds of getting a Chinese guy teaching your stats, cs, math, or chemistry courses were 80%.

All of the 100 to 300 level science and math courses were taught by graduate students, who were mostly comprised of foreign exchange students.

nova scotia. its mainly the economics profs who can't speak english very well.

i found the same thing when I got my undergrad degree.

And a lot of profs I met were sooo specialized in one area so insignificant that they were functionally stupid in society as a whole.

ah well, I enrolled in the texas schools for the higher amount grant money & from my scholarships,due to residency... then I used the money to pay off my schooling back home at UNO (University of New Orleans) worked out well, had a dorm in Texas for 3 weeks. I cant stay in Texas more than 3 days now, driving through it.

I have driven through from border to border on Texas quite a few times, and its 24 hours border to border, can never get through their quick enough. Houston is only 5 hours out of new Orleans so exchanging residency isnt a big prob. Anyhow, sorry college sucked.

In New Orleans we had a bar on campus. And bars right across the street with .25 cent pitchers of beer all day long between classes.

mmmm I had a blast in college.

:1orglaugh

I ran into alot of people like that.

I had a c++ instructor that would launch into weekly tirades about how studying anything outside the "hard sciences" was an utter waste of time. Art, history, religion, literature, etc etc were all worthless pursuits that did not contribute to humanity and would only leave you flat broke with no future. All the little poindexters in the class would get a good laugh and then we would move along. I hated that fucking guy.

My first roommate during college was a civil engineer. His whole course load was nothing but physics, math, chemistry, and LOTS of it. His homework used to blow my mind. Just pages of formulas. BUT, like everyone else, he had to take his core requirements... which meant some social sciences, some art. Real basic shit like intro to art, intro to english, intro to history. He was a vegetable. He couldnt put together a coherent sentence if his life depended on it. Unless he could punch it into his TI, he couldnt understand it. I had to proofread everything he did, and it was one of the most disturbing things I have ever seen. Absolute math and physics genius, but an utter and complete retard outside that realm.

Most of my professors were that way. The classic mad professor type guys. Just come in all dirty, fucked up hair, no care about how they dress. Just an hour or so of fucking spazzing out in front of a bunch of students. All of my 100 to 300 level courses were taught by graduate students. What doctor who has been studying and writing on the same subject for 40 years, wants to come in and teach Intro to Anthro to a bunch of fratboys who need some elective credits?

"What doctor who has been studying and writing on the same subject for 40 years, wants to come in and teach Intro to Anthro to a bunch of fratboys who need some elective credits?"


none

gears esp think they are the gods of the world. The thing that always made me question that logic was that most gears work for a salary - ie they were paid by SOMEONE ELSE. I always wanted to be the writing the check.


my favorite crowd was the aggies - those farm boys REALLY knew how to party and somehow always managed to have a 2 to 1 girl to guy ratio at their parties. They had a real talent for throwing parties with faculities that were mostly women - nursing, home economics, etc. Gear parties had like 7 geeks to every babe and were totally lame in comparison.

let's kill some teachers for fun

Exactly, thats why I always got stuck with Akbar from Pakistan teaching me statistics.

To me, school didnt really kick in till junior year, and then both my senior years. Fuck off, nobody graduates in 4 years. I have only met one person who got their BS/BA in 4 years. I was amazed I did it in 5.

it only took me an extra 1/2 semister for my degree...
ha ha he ha ha

My school had a HUGE ag department. They had a fucking rodeo team, their own fraternity (the FarmHouse), those farmboys were out of their damn minds. People like me were not welcome, and that was fine by me.

I never hung out with anyone in my field. Anthro is full of dirty hippies and whiny espresso drinking fruitcakes. I always got hammered with the geeks. I was always down for some drunken lan gaming in the cs labs at 4 am.

"Fuck off, nobody graduates in 4 years. "

You make me feel better now. :)

Serge's my favorite board whore ! :)

Actually, I am about a 1 1/2 years from a teaching credential !

the answer I was trying get out of you was:

you advocate violence,
death for a cause,
etc...

what kind of PERSONAL experience you have on the subject?

you sound more like a key board warrior with very LIMITED exposure to the true violance you advocate so much.....

So it is not about ideology. You want me to fess up to any violent acts I may have participated in? On GFY?

Riiiight.

I will forever just have to remain your keyboard warrior I guess.



Who doesnt? You watched the news lately?

how did that famous quote go.... something like " the point of war is not to die for your country, but to make your enemy die for his"

i went back for a 5th because i needed the student loan money. :)

more like a low interest loan with 30% written off while i take a double major.

I thought school in CanLand was free?

So it is not about ideology. You want me to fess up to any violent acts I may have participated in? On GFY?

Riiiight.

I will forever just have to remain your keyboard warrior I guess.
***************************************

you don't have to fess up to something you never been exposed to...
you ARE theoretician with no exposure to the subject of your "love" whatsoever...

I haven't killed anybody,
but I lived for 6 months in the same room with Palestinians,
I can claim I was "exposed" and you can't...

there is nothing wrong with being sheltered, don't get me wrong...

tuition is like 4 grand. i have 40k in student loans, which is a major reason why i said fuck law school/mba.

What makes you think I wasnt associated with a violent arm of a white nationalist group? Perhaps I spent time in the pen on reduced attempted murder charges? Perhaps I did actually intend on killing that parasite. Maybe now I only work in a support role due to fear of parole violations.

Who knows. Its all pure speculation. I dont care... why should you?

I thought this was the list so far :1orglaugh

DynaMite

I care because you advocate rather radical views and in order to understand the person,
it pays to dig into his roots.

ever heard about "profiling"?

your GFY persona is NOT correlating with white supremasist with reduced charges.

wrong profile

Why, have you known alot of nationalists/seperatists/supremacists? As a Russian Jew I am guessing your exposure to them is limited to what the mass media tells you.

Not everyone involved is an inbred hillbilly with a 6th grade education. Trust me.

Glad you asked..
yes, I was,
Soviet antisemites are socially/mentally close to white supremasists over here.

you just raised my credentials a bit
;-0

c'mon,
what so hard to admit it?
I won't look down on you if you don't have personal exposure
to the subject at hand...

Serge
How much would it cost me for you to post on GFY with my SIG?

I don't consider myself smart just lucky

:winkwink:

why don't you buy Oprano instead?

18 months NET will do it...have a spare mil?

Oh cmon. Everyone knows you cant trust a Russian. Ask 12Clicks.

If I reveal my deep dark secret you will only berate me and make me feel bad.

Goin on 20 hours now, this conversation now has a surreal quality to it. I remember you back on YNOT in 97, man your english was brutal back then if I remember right. You didnt use so many :))))) as you do now.

Now I get to ask you a question. You were a click broker, you made your money, you left. Why did you come back? Surely you have better things to do with your time and money than to sit on a message board and argue with gallery kids.

You were my second sponsor back then. Your shave was BRUTAL. The OVUVON shit never did figure out what the fuck you were talking about.

hmmm...you sound like you are feeling bad already,
and haven't done ANYTHING to cause that...yet.

I guess I am much happier now, which explains all those
";-)))))"

;-)

my shave was BRUTAL???
bullshit,
my shave was exactly in LINE with shave ALL proggies used at that time...one should ALWAYS be competitive
;-)))


as for UVOVUNS,
they were a parody designed for MORONS who believed that 18 cents per click by Xpics were real...
those souls saw no shave compared to Xpics
;-))

as for WHY am I back?

I was only 42 when I retired, not the right age for retiree...
there is MORE in life than travel around the world and collecting arts..

MIND needs CONSTANT stimulation, and that's where I get it, on adult webmasters boards
;-))

call me a "druggie"
;-))

nice try, BTW, to turn my questiuons into your questions,
I don't mind, as long as we can stay with BOTH
;-)))

and before one disputes "profilings",
didn't take much to see Labret even under different alias...

things we carry on our backs from board to board
;-))
