Which is a terrible goal for any school to have. Yes, students should be prepared to enter the workforce, however this should be achieved through ensuring critical reasoning skills and creativity. The ability to land a job should be a benefit of a strong education but not its primary goal.

Yes, but education should help foster creativity, but as it is now that is certainly not the case. Also, why shouldn't we put high expectations on schools? Mind you, I am not talking about making sure schools get high SAT scores, which is how it is now, which is bullshit because that means education is placing…

I would certainly agree that school is important for the population as a whole. However, given how poorly public education is treated on behalf the United States government, school is doing worse and worse at its job to provide a strong foundation of knowledge for students. To me, school should be about fostering…

While I love industrial settings for workspace, I don't think this one pulls it off very well. It feels more cheap than urban. I think the example on the left here is a more appropriate setting.

Thoughts on the cologne one:

Quick, no one reply to that comment!

While this occurred in India, I believe it is still notable to point out that the majority of game-changers such as this man are either college or high school dropouts. Especially in America, this really is a testament to the how borked our approach to public education is. If the most successful business persons in…

Everyone here is being so critical over the RIAA as a whole, but think about it for a minute. Whoever is downloading Dexter from the RIAA offices is probably some cubicle-slave who doesn't give paid enough to give a shit about what he actually does. In fact, this could very well be a man who has taken this job because…

Seoul, you say? Better get Sam Fisher on the line.

Kim Jong Ill is now Kim Jong Dead

I see your pop music and raise you Dr. Dog.

I think it takes an extraordinary amount of talent. Being able to mix the paints in a certain way and apply them to accurately convey what they are trying to paint. You can't just give anyone some paints and tell them to make something like this. You have to be very skilled.

You can pretty much describe anything in words, so does that mean that nothing is art? I prefer Scott McCloud's definition of art, which basically states that art is any creative output that does not stem from our basic human desires (such as eating and fucking).

Oh man, I just keep thinking: If that had been me driving in the car, would I have slammed on the brakes or tried to speed up and go around and in between the two trucks. I fear that should I have done the latter I would have been wiped out by that truck...

Internet was being buggy and I thought this didn't get posted. So... repost!

You will all enjoy this song for the following four minutes and fifty-seven seconds. After the allotted time period has come to a conclusion, you may return to life as you please, albeit with a better appreciation for the wonderful world of music. In case of allergy, proper substitutes include, but are not limited to:…

o.O I suppose I had just assumed that it was common knowledge what a guillotine is. Would people really not know about it? Kids these days...

I... am unsure why you would be ashamed about that.

If you aren't directly looking at it, number five looks like a guillotine.
