Well, not with that attitude.

Captain_Keeta | 21-05-2015 16:35

You sound like me.

Joeyy | 21-05-2015 16:45

its not like we can get any smarter

I'm not sure what to say to this, yet I'm compelled to respond. What thinking is behind that statement? Was it a joke or do you think people reach a certain age and lose the ability to learn new information?

Cheater138 | 21-05-2015 17:21

Obviously this person has not gotten to the point in school where punctuation is taught...

PracticePractic | 21-05-2015 17:26

I feel drawn and compelled to respond as well...

I do write long....

School may not be cool to you, but unless you are born as a "savant" in some field, most of us have to find ourselves, find our path in life, our careers/jobs....

If you attend (at 21) college it is to learn and open your mind to new possibilities that today, right now as you type "school is so not cool" you may be missing out in life....

Survivor (do you watch it?) Just concluded their show where they pitted White Collar, vs Blue Collar vs No Collar job holders against one another...

These represent some of the areas of work/life/careers there are out there for you to find and sample.

College/School gives you a chance to try it out.... without bombing out! You can get an A or an F.... Go with the classes and areas of study that you get A's in and avoid the ones you don't like, or you get F's in...

But ....

In order to find yourself, you have to go to----"school" Its worth it.. don't waste time there with partying etc, its there for you to find yourself..

I do wish you luck if you take that route... and who knows, one day you might return here and tell us how fortunate it was to have attended school and learned something that made all the difference in your life...

Well babies don't know about punctuation and our intelligence levels never change, so...

Practice, if you watch Survivor you should join our discussion

MCSMeister | 22-05-2015 20:56

Well, this'll be a self-fulfilling prophecy if you think of it that way. That attitude will get you nowhere in life.

Captain_Keeta | 22-05-2015 20:57

Why were you discussing survivor in here, practice? Lmao.

Joeyy | 22-05-2015 21:01

Did you even read his post? It's obvious why.

MCSMeister | 22-05-2015 21:02

Knowing Jeff's laziness he probably didn't read it all

But simply put, Jeff, he mentioned it because it relates to careers/college; jobs that are out there for you to find, basically.

Captain_Keeta | 22-05-2015 21:04

Or any of it...

MCSMeister | 22-05-2015 21:05

So why would you ask why he brought up Survivor if you were too lazy to read the post to find out for yourself?

Joeyy | 22-05-2015 21:05

It's ridiculous of you to ask, then. Fitting for the thread, though...

JDolla | 22-05-2015 21:13

I made myself a promise when i graduated high school that from that day forward I would never learn another goddamn thing. So far, so good.

Captain_Keeta | 22-05-2015 21:13

Good job Jeremy!

MCSMeister | 22-05-2015 22:10

That's awful. What do you have against learning?

PracticePractic | 22-05-2015 22:55

So much to comment on....
Last item first, So Jeremy, what happens when you choose to "retire"? So many senior citizens return to take college level courses (or even advanced courses taught at evening sessions at Community Colleges or High Schools) to learn topics and things they never had time for while they were earning a living/advancing in career/starting a family, etc etc you know the rest.... They enjoy learning for the sake of absorbing new things... For you to have already made a declaration and given up? It does not sound like the Jeremy that I read the posts of here!

JDolla | 22-05-2015 23:31

You guys need to stop taking things that i say seriously.

PracticePractic | 23-05-2015 00:30

that's ok Jeremy! I appreciate a good sense of humor!

MCSMeister | 23-05-2015 00:33

Yes Jeremy, but this is the Internet, and sometimes jokes and sarcasm are hazy.

PinkFloyd | 23-05-2015 00:36

It's okay, you don't know Jeremy like some of us. Although sometimes he still gets me.

Cheater138 | 23-05-2015 00:40

I've learned to just assume he's being sarcastic all the time, because even if his post is meant to be serious, he probably really still meant to be sarcastic about it.

Welcome to the Internet.
