Is that really why they don’t use barcodes?

Isn’t archaeology is a pretty chick-dominated field? I read that statistic somewhere, also I’m an archaeology student and it’s a total clambake here.

Letting a totally store-bought costume win, I dunno, it feels like it defeats the point of a costume contest. I mean, it’s one thing if the contestant got a bunch of cool stuff together, even if it’s all store bought, or if they did really awesome makeup or something.

And we’ll have Dad helping her instead of the mom! Can you imagine, a DAD being involved in parenting?! SO PROGRESSIVE

Commercials are pretty fascinating.

I always find it weird that science fairs on TV always show volcanoes at stuff. The science fairs my schools required experiments that tested shit. Volcanoes are just for show.

I wonder if there’s a way that science fairs can be set up to be based more on effort and work rather than financial and parental advantage.

For the most part, I didn’t have to deal with assignments that required something I didn’t have (though any kind of project that required a posterboard always looked like shit, ha ha. Sure, I was an artsy kid, but when you only have a posterboard and markers, it’s hard to compete with the kids who have a trifold board…

Heh, yeah. At the very least, teachers should take those factors into account when grading. In elementary school, whenever we had to make dioramas, some of the kids would have their parents buy those fancy sets with the nice plastic trees and figurines while I’d be making stuff out of pipe cleaners and paper and felt.…

Yeah, I was gonna say, I blame fast fashion. New clothes come and go all the time. (as a broke college student, I shop at some of those stores, but it’s really damn annoying that it feels like an item doesn’t stay in stock for more than a week. I guess that’s part of the way it makes money, if you shop there and see…

I thought the same thing.

Oh, god, I fucking hate that trend in girl’s character costumes. A little dress with the character’s picture/color scheme isn’t a goddamn costume! It’s just laziness on the part of the costume manufacturers!

For real. You can’t spend your entire life seeing sex as a dirty, shameful thing and then be ready to enjoy it after one night.

Oh, god, same here. I feel like life is passing me by because the buses stop running at a certain time, and I can never go to the events that are popular with people my age.

I hate buying bread because if I’m not eating sandwiches every day, it goes moldy before it’s finished. I buy the half loaves, which are MORE expensive than the full ones, but I hate to waste food like that.

Pretty hard to find a TV that isn’t a flatscreen these days. Get with the times, dude. And smartphones can be obtained pretty inexpensively these days, hell, sometimes they’re easier to get than regular phones. And smartphones are so useful that they’re definitely worth any extra cost.

I have four roommates and fridge and freezer space is terribly limited. I can’t freeze anything. :(

Oh, definitely. I don’t have a car, I rely on the bus, and let me tell you, it is a huuuuuge time suck. It also limits me quite a bit, I can’t work jobs that want people to work late and I can’t go to any events that take place at night. (meaning, pretty much everything that people my age like to do for fun... You’re…

Ha ha, yeah, I’m thinking, where is this magical place where buses run every ten minutes? I’d do terrible, terrible things to have access to that kind of bus system!

Problem is, there are very few places in the US that have a very good public transportation system. I live in San Antonio, and the bus system here is okay... But I’m still much, much more limited than I would be if I had a car. Even a trip to the grocery store to get a few items requires me to be out for at least two…
