Am I the only one sees a problem with these?
But then I am a fucking cynic about human nature.

Funny, I always did better in Libral Arts courses when I wrote my papers piss ass drunk. unless it's a hard science, basic conceptual knowledge or math, there's really nothing to be learning in class anyways, so I if they want to fuck up their minds to be better at bullshit, then let them.
Nobody expects me...

I once sat an electronics exam still drunk and stoned after being out all night on our work Xmas party, got about 80% after thinking I'd failed it.andrewclunn wrote:Funny, I always did better in Libral Arts courses when I wrote my papers piss ass drunk. unless it's a hard science, basic conceptual knowledge or math, there's really nothing to be learning in class anyways, so I if they want to fuck up their minds to be better at bullshit, then let them.

The world is a thing of utter inordinate complexity and richness and strangeness that is absolutely awesome. I mean the idea that such complexity can arise not only out of such simplicity, but probably absolutely out of nothing, is the most fabulous extraordinary idea. And once you get some kind of inkling of how that might have happened, it's just wonderful. And . . . the opportunity to spend 70 or 80 years of your life in such a universe is time well spent as far as I am concerned.

I did, and that's when I realized that the classes were the pointless/expensive part.Gawdzilla wrote:andrewclunn wrote:Funny, I always did better in Libral Arts courses when I wrote my papers piss ass drunk. unless it's a hard science, basic conceptual knowledge or math, there's really nothing to be learning in class anyways, so I if they want to fuck up their minds to be better at bullshit, then let them.The classroom sessions were, at best about "where to look" or "what to look for". To really get into a subject you had to the reading, and the thinking.

Ticket punching. The real fun was confusing my profs.
