School F***ing sucks, no wonder I joined the Army right out of high school! Society has determined that a piece of paper is required for you to be worthy of a high paying job, because apparently you are not capable of coherent thought, nor are you trainable without it. I feel that technical schools are much more practical because they actually teach you how to perform a job. College is a waste of time and money, but due to the fact that I am determined to make more of the proverbial phat cash I will conform to the plethora of bullshit standards imposed by institutions around the world and stick it out. Once I get my degree I am going to wipe my ass with it, so I know what it feels like to wipe my ass with 40+ grand.

Yo angry, where in DC are you at? I just moved back to the area after 9 1/2 years away. I'm living in NW DC right now near Friendship Heights...
