You're better off dismissing this person - they're probably about to troll you.

Ohhh yes, I've heard about the co-ops. If I was in school still I'd think that's a great deal.

GROSS. My sister has about half that and Sallie Mae is calling them every. single. day. It's awful. I have a modest amount of debt but it honestly seems like a more realistic goal to kill my debt than it is to accrue more for a degree that I don't know if it will actually help me or not. I have my associates, but…

The thing is though you could probably afford to live like that. Many people really can't, so it prices people like me out of the game. If you graduated without debt or the ability to live comfortably while working an unpaid internship, you've got some privilege there working in your favor.

But you also seem to miss…

I've been attempting to figure out what I should do with my life and tech is definitely something I've looked at - but I desperately want to keep myself out of debt.

I can't really win.

Holy balls! They interned at $20/hr?! If I made that amount of money I'd be tossing twenties around my room like they were confetti.

I'm not sure either. But thank you :) I agree, I don't like the black and white thinking either, even if the subject we're talking about is heinous. I get really uncomfortable when people want to see something bad happen to someone else who has done something terrible. I see that as still participating in the cycle of…

Sorry. Inhuman was the word I was looking for. I don't understand what you're arguing against. Saying my view is bullshit without providing your counterargument gives me nothing. Elaborate. I'm looking at the text now. What am I supposed to be looking for?

I agree with him in the sense that I think he has a legitimate point in saying that being sternly against sympathy or at the very least understanding that sometimes victims do look like DiMaggio is a harmful position to take. I agree with you in that I don't think we must all immediately jump to defend or like or…

I agree with him, nor do I believe he's trolling. I don't agree that we must all excuse DiMaggio or feel that he's the "real" victim here. I am repulsed by what he's done. But he, like most abusers, is also a victim of abuse.

You never have to like a criminal, but having some understanding about their circumstances can help prevent tragic things like this from happening in the future. Information is a powerful, and understanding that humans, people like you and I, are entirely capable of horrific things under certain circumstances.…

It's because of the higher amount of women applying to college. Colleges try to keep their gender ratio about equal, but with the larger amount of women applying to college, it means that they're accepting more guys that are less qualified than their counterparts.

You are actually completely right about that. As a woman applying to college, you are more likely to be rejected these days because of the high amount of girls applying to college. And since the colleges try to keep the gender ratio about equal, if a guy and a girl are both applying for the same spot, the guy is more…

Funny thing is, in order to join the trades, you still need specific schooling for the trade you want to join. And unless you went to a vocational school in high school for free, you will have to pay for your own schooling. So it's not like someone can just up and join a trade anymore, because they need to become…

NO GABE NEWELL WE GO POTTY OUTSIDE!! BAD GABE NEWELL!

DAMN YOU GABE NEWELL! How dare he be so... wonderful at business.

If only we all had our own personal Gabe Newells.

Well it drives me crazy when someone who has no experience/interest/or ability in the creative process tries to get involved and micro-manage things. That's a problem that stretches across any creative medium, whether you're designing a website, a pamphlet, or making a movie or a video game. Some people up top think…

Naw but in reality, I agree with you. I really think that this industry needs an overhaul, and that the gamers who consume these games need to lighten up a bit. The internet really doesn't help in this avenue because anyone with an internet connection can spew whatever they want, and they don't have to think about…

Like I said in another thread, they decided for their next generation of biscuits they're updating their recipe to have baking soda instead of baking powder so it'll be more like hard tack. They're trying to chase after the 18th century sailor demographic, and they've forgotten that they're a biscuit company! That WE,…

Well can we at least keep our products seperate!? I mean the 18th century sailors can have their hard tack but they need to leave the biscuits out of it! They're ruining perfectly good biscuits with their inedibleness and making them into an unusable product! The 18th century sailors won't eat them because they fail…
